The Explication.
1The question concerning the division of the Decalogue is necessary and profitable, and therefore to be observed: §11. Because God himself hath expressed and set down a certain number of the Tables and Commandments of the Decalogue. §22. Because Christ divideth the sum of the whole Law into two Commandments, or into two kinds of commandments.§3 3. Because the right division of the Decalogue maketh to the understanding of the commandments themselves. For it advertiseth us of the degrees of obedience, and showeth that the worship of the first Table is the chief and principal. Now, the Decalogue is divided after a three-fold manner.
