Here his memory serveth him not / for any place out of the 1law, which proveth continual residence off the Pastor. I will let pass the houses built round about / and joining to the temple / which being done off Solomon (as was the rest off the building) according to the word of God / might declare how near their charges the lord vvill have the Ministers off the church. Likewise I will not press the example which is alleged / off Ely sitting at the door of the Tabernacle / to espy the manners / and answer the doubts off those which entered. I vvill content my self with the Apostle / the best expounder off the law: who setting forth the Priests function / by that part off it which consisted in sacrifices: useth a word off great strength / to bind them to a continual residence / and signifieth in effect / a continual sitting at their 2charge. Now considering that the Pastors diligence is the same in his church / that theirs was in their charge: continual presence being required off them / the same / or greater rather if greater can be / is required off the pastor: as he which hath greater trust / committed unto him.
Heere his memory serueth him not / for any place owt of the 1law, which proueth continuall residence off the Pastor. I will let passe the howses built rownd abowt / and ioyning to the temple / vvhich being doon off Salomon (as was the rest off the building) according to the vvord of God / might declare how neer their charges the lord vvill haue the Ministers off the church. Likewise I will not presse the example which is alledged / off Ely sitting at the dore of the Tabernable / to espy the manners / and answer the doubtes off those vvhich entred. I vvill content my selff vvith the Apostel / the best expounder off the law: vvho setting forth the Priestes function / by that part off it vvhich consisted in sacrifices: vseth a word off great strenght / to binde them to a continuall residence / and signifieth in effect / a continuall sitting at their 2charge. Now considering that the Pastors diligence is the same in his church / that theirs was in their charge: continuall presence being required off them / the same / or greater rather if greater can be / is required off the pastor: as he which hath greater trust / committed vnto him.
