2. The place mentioned by the Rejoinder: out of Lev. 10.1. doeth most strongly make against him. For the sons of Aron are there condemned, for bringing strange, or ordinary fire to Gods worship, as doing that which God had not commanded, and yet had not otherwise forbidden, then by providing fire proper to his worship, and not appointing any other to be used in the tabernacle, and this is the very plea which we make against Ceremonies of humane institution, in Gods worship. The scope of that text we are taught, by an English Bishop, Babington, in his notes upon that place: We may hence learn and settle in our hearts, with what severity the Lord challengeth and defendeth his authority, in laying down the way and manner of his worship, not leaving it to any creature, to meddle with, but according to prescription and appointment from him. Content he is, that men shall make laws for humane matters etc, But for his Divine worship, he only will prescribe it himself, and what h•e appointed, that must be done, and that only, or else Nad•b and Abibu their punishment expected, that is, Gods w•ath expected, in such manner as he shall please.
