Though this Author hath said enough, yet because this distinction is so common in their mouths; I will but add a few Scriptures in which we shall find an injunction laid upon us, that in matters concerning God, our duty towards him, we look that all things be according to his word.
The first Text is, col. 2.8. Beware lest any man spoil you through Philosophy and vain deceit, according (though we read after, that makes no difference, [Greek or Hebrew] with an Accusative Case, secundum) to the Traditions of men; according to the rudiments of the world, and not according to Christ.

Expositors differ about those words, vain deceit: I shall not trouble my self nor the Reader about them; but by Traditions of men, I see generally they understand those superstitious customs which have only mans authority for their institution, such as the Pharisaical Traditions. So Anselm, &c. but Baldwin, Davenant, Beza, Gomarus, Diodati, apply them to the Popish worship.
