That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared.
That the hypocrite reigne not, lest the people be ensnared.
1What a hypocrite is, and what the importance of the original word is, here translated hypocrite, hath been opened from some other passages in this book. I shall only say thus much further, that the word imports, First, a filthy thing disguised or covered; For a hypocrite is a filthy profane person, under the cover or disguise of holiness. Our English word knave is near in sound to this Hebrew word chanaph, and some conceive 'tis derived or taken from it. And to be sure, every hypocrite is a profane person, though all profane persons are not hypocrites; Some wicked and profane ones care not who knoweth they are so; yet very many who are indeed profane and wicked cover it, what they can, and show that only whereof they have only a show, somewhat of godliness or of goodness.

And to be sure, every hypocrite is a prophane person, though all prophane persons are not hypocrites; Some wicked and prophane ones care not who knoweth they are so; yet very many who are indeed prophane and wicked cover it, what they can, and shew that only whereof they have only a shew, somewhat of godlinesse or of goodnesse.
