God therefore hath given laws unto all nations, and in all lands hath put kings, governors, and rulers in ⟨p. 110⟩his own stead, to rule the world thorough them. And hath commanded all causes to be brought before them, as thou readest Exod. xxij. In all causes (saith he) of injury or wrong, whether it be Ox, Ass, sheep or vesture, or any lost thing which an other challengeth, let the cause of both parties be brought unto the Gods, whom the Gods condemn, the same shall pay double unto his neighbour. Mark, the judges are called Gods in the 1Scriptures, because they are in Gods room, and execute the commandments of God. And in an other place of the said chapter, Moses chargeth saying: see that thou rail not on the Gods, neither speak evil of the ruler of thy people. Who so ever therefore resisteth them, resisteth God (for they are in y• room of God) and they that resist, shall receive the damnation.
