Homer and Hesiod, some say, lived before Isaiah, or about his time; Hesiod hath expressions very like that of Isaiah, in the description of Tophet, 1Isa. 30.33. as if the Heathen drew with the same pencil, saith Doughty. But did Isaiah borrow from Hesiod? the same Author instanceth in many things more, and did the Penmen borrow (or rather the spirit that inspired them) from the Heathen? Because Plato hath an expression something like to Paul's distinction of the outward and inward man, must Paul needs borrow it out of Plato, as Nerimbergius would have him?

The Baptism of John, whence was it, from heaven or men? Why did they not answer from the Elders Tradition; it seems it was the counsel of God, Luk. 7.30
