A distinction was likewise used, betwixt appropriation of this or that individual, and of the kind. To this it is rejoined, 1. that the individuals are nevertheless appropriated. Which is not so: because appropriation of the kind and individual both, is more then ⟨p. 185⟩of the individual alone. Individuals may be extrinsically, & accidentally appropriated, the kind remaining intrinsically common, & indifferent. 2. That some individuals (without all their kind) have been appropriated to holy uses. Of which no man doubteth: because one individual may be so used, without other. But is there therefore no difference, betwixt extrinsical, accidental appropriation of one Levite to the Ministry, and the whole tribe? 3. Not all kind of linen garments, or crosses are appropriated to religious uses.. As if the question were of linen garments simply, though they were used without any such institution as a Surplice hath, only for the natural convenience of it, or of crossing the fingers, upon occasion, to drive away flies, that come cross upon a mans face. There was (in the last place) mention made of the significancy of our Ceremonies, which maketh them in their intrinsical nature (as such) without any further expectation of occasional application, to be proper to religion. But of this our Rej. would not hear, in this place. Let it therefore pass to the next chapter.
