The Apostle Paul proved by consequence from Scripture Christs Resurrection, Act: 13. 33, 34. He hath raised up Jesus again, as it is also written in the second Psalm, thou art my Son this day have I begotten thee. And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David. His God head is proved, Heb: 1. 6. From these words, Let all the Angels of God worship him. Divine worship cannot be due, and may not be given to any that is not God.

Gem ar. Sanhedrin. cap: 11. sect. 38. So that here are two sorts of necessary consequences from the Law, one is a majori aut minori or if ye will, a fortiori: another a pari either of which being refused, the Law it self was despised, yea tis further to be observed with Mr. Selden in his Uxor Haebraica lib: 1. cap: 3. that the Karaei or Judaei scripturarii who reject the additaments or traditions of the Talmudical Masters,
