The Second Reason.
Bishop Jewels Answer.
I See not what you would conclude: Perhaps you will say, they had not the names of Pope, or Arch-Bishop: So had they not this name Episcopus in all Moses Law: yet were not all Priests of like aunciency in government. They had other names that were equivalent with Archbishops; as Principes Synagogae, Principes Sanctuarii, Principes familiarum Leviticarum, Principes familiarum Sacerdotalium, Principes Sacerdotum, Principes domus Dei, Pontifex, Summus Pontifex, Summus Sacerdos. Therefore the negative reason is but weak.
