¶ The Prologue to the epistle of S. Paul to the Hebrews.
¶ The Prologe to the episile of S. Paul to the Hebrues.
About this pistle hath ever been noche doubting and that amō the great learned men who should be the author thereof: diverse affirming that it was not Pauls partly because the stile so disagreeth & is so unlike: his other epistles / & parley because it standeth in ⟨image 352⟩the second Chapter / this learning was confirmed to us ward: that is to say taught us by them that heard it them selves of the Lord. Now Paul testifieth Gala. j. that he received not his gospel of man nor by man but immediately of Christ & that by revelation. Wherefore say they / seeing this man confesseth that he received his doctrine of the Apostles it cannot be Pauls / but some disciple of the Apostles. Now whether it were Pauls or no I say not / but permit it to other mens judgements / nor there think I it to be an article of any mans faith / but that a man may doubt of the author.
ABoute this pistle hath euer beē noche doutynge and that amō te great learned mē who shuld be the auctor therof: diuerse affirminge that it was not Paules partlye because the stile so disagreeth & is so vnlyk: his other epistles / & parrlye because it stondeth in ⟨image 352⟩the seconde Chapter / this learninge was confyrmed to vs warde: that is to saye taught vs by them that heard it them selues of the Lorde. Now Paule testifieth Gala. j. that he receaued not his gospell of man ner by man but ymmediatlye of Christ & that by reuelacion. Wherfore saye they / seinge this mā confesseth that he receaued his doctryne of the Apostles it cānot be Pauls / but some disciple of the Apostles. Now whether it were Pauls or no I saye not / but permytit to other mennes iudgementes / ne ther thinke I it to be an article of anye mannes fayth / but that a man maye doute of the auctor.
