6. After these testimonies, the Replier inquired into the Logic of this distinction between Divine and Apostolical traditions. But the Rejoinder correcteth his interpretation, and saith this distinction is taken chiefly from the different Authors, Christ, and the Apostles. Be it so: yet it were not extreme rudeness, to say that whatsoever the Apostles as the Apostles of Christ, appointed, that Christ himself appointed. But saith the Rejoinder, some things were appointed by Christ himself immediately, and others by the Apostles occasionally. ⟨p. 337⟩Which is true: yet 1. this overthroweth that which was even now alleged, that this distinction is chiefly taken from different Authors: because this is only a difference of manner, as Polanus (Syntag. lib. 1. cap. 47.) doeth clearly manifest, in his large confutation of this self same distinction. 2. By the same or somewhat like reason, a distinction may be made, betwixt the word of God, and the word of the Prophets, 3. It were worth the knowing, upon what occasion these Feasts were ordained by the Apostles?
