Enos walked with God, and was no more seen, he lived godly and died: God toke him away, that is, God hid his body, as he did Moses and Aaron's, lest haply they should have made an Idol of him, for he was a great preacher, and an holy man.

Zaphnath Paenea words of Egypt are they (as I suppose) and as much to say, as a man to whom secret things be opened, or an expounder of secrete things, as some interpret it.

That Joseph brought the Egyptians into such a subjection, would seem unto some a very cruel deed: how be it, it was a very equal way: for they paid but yt fifth part of that, that grew on the ground, and therewith were they quit of all duties, both of rent, custom, tribute, and tolle: & the king therewith found them Lords, and all ministers, and defended them, we now pay half so much unto the priests only: beside their other crafty exactions. Then pay we rent yearly, though there grow never so little on yt ground, and yet when the king calleth, pay we never the less. So that if we look indifferently, their condition was easier then ours, and but even a very indifferent way, both for the common people, and the king also.
That Ioseph broughte the Egiptians into such a subiection, would seme vnto some a very cruell deede: howe be it, it was a very equall way: for they payd but yt fifth part of that, that grew on the grounde, and therewith were they quit of all dueties, both of rente, custome, tribute, and tolle: & the kyng therwith found them Lordes, and all ministers, and defended them, we now pay half so much vnto the priests only: beside their other craftye exactions. Then pay we rente yearely, thoughe there grow neuer so litle on yt ground, and yet when the kyng calleth, pay we neuer the lesse. So that if we looke indifferently, their condition was easier then oures, and but euen a very indifferent way, both for the common people, and the kyng also.
