It is nothing with the A. that the 70. interpreters off the old Testament / nor that S Paul / and Luke him self / utter the laying on off hands by other words. Thes are bare conjectures being alleged against him: but ye shall hear by and by / where he hath not half such a reason / the great bell go with certainly, and manifestly. Howbeit although thes seem bare conjectures to him: it must needs have weight with those / that have their senses well acquainted with the holy scripture. For they know that the writers off the new testament / frame them selves unto the manner off speech off the old / when they speak off the same things: and for the gentiles sake which had knowledge off the translation of the seventy interpreters / they keep them so carefully to that: that sometimes they use it / although it be not in every point so just / and so answerable unto the truth of the Hebrew / as might have been. Which thing done off all those especially / which laboured in the tillage off the gentiles / amongest whom S. Luke (S. Pauls Companion) was: whosoever considereth must needs confess / that this conjecture is not so bare as he maketh it.
