2. And first of all, we answer, that this Altar of the two Tribes, was not in the state, or use, religious, as the Cross is, by the confession of an English Bishop, Babington on the 2. Commandment.

The Rejoinder 1. opposeth out of Mr. Parker, par. 1. sect. 34. and 36. that religious in use is that which hath a religious end: and religious in state, which is Ecclesiastical, belonging to Gods service. Ergo. But Mr. Parker in those sect. told him, that religious in a sense common, or mix•ly, all things are, that are done to an holy end: and religious ⟨p. 323⟩in sense special, or in state, all those things are, that have Order, Obligation, and a kind of Immobility, in Gods service. Now the question is not of the former common mixed sense: but of the later special state: according to which, no man can say the Altar of Jordan to have been religious, upon ground of Scripture or reason. Let any man judge then, whether partiality did put out Mr. Parkers eyes (as the Rej. speaketh) or blear theirs, that see not the vanity of this allegation?
