The Rejoinder his second reason for so deep a censure, is, that the Defendant grounded not his proposition upon these two examples, but from the equity of the precept of God, unto these two men. The Defendant indeed said, that his proof was by the general equity of Gods Law; and then bringeth these two examples. Wherein he was spared, that nothing was opposed to his gathering of generally equity of the Law, from two examples, which (according to his interpretation) are manifestly beside, and in some sort, against the Law. But if his proof was from the equity of two special precepts, those specials are examples: and the Defendant his words are of one of Gideons acts: Which example we have propounded, to prove, &c. And the Rejoinder himself, in this same page, calleth the other act of Gideon, an Instan•e, in the same sense: I believe the Jews gathered their rule from this instance: and pag. 591. he calleth that which is alleged of Gideon, and the other of Joshua, two instances. In all this charge therefore of unchristian dealing, there is not found any fault at all. But it is too common with the Rej. when he cannot reasonably rejoin, to break out into angry words.
