VER. XXVII. XXVIII.
[Greek or Hebrew].
〈non-Latin alphabet〉.
The words used in this context have been opened in several places before. And in one thing only is there any material Difference among the Translators of them. And this is in those words [Greek or Hebrew]. For the Syriac reads them, [Greek or Hebrew]; rendering the Article in the masculine Gender, who was after the Law; and so doth the Vulgar Latine also, qui post legem est, referring unto [Greek or Hebrew] as the antecedent, and not [Greek or Hebrew]. And Erasmus renders [Greek or Hebrew] by supra legem, above the Law. But others think and that rightly, that [Greek or Hebrew] with an Accusative case, is never to be rendered by supra, or above.
