1And he addeth and taketh away, not which useth other diverse, and plainer words in expounding a sentence of the revelation: but he that putteth in any thing contrary to the true sense, and varying from those things which are here of the lord expressed: or he that taketh away any thing, obscureth or perverteth, which here the lord himself hath expressly signified. Whereupon Thomas of Aquine: he addeth to sayeth he, which putteth to a lie: he minissheth, which taketh away any thing of that which is written therein, or also in denying gain sayeth the same. Thus much he. Therefore this addition and subtraction, consisteth not in words only but rather in sense. For neither the prophets in expounding the law at large, are thought to have added any thing to God his word: neither the Apostles preaching the liberty of the gospel, are said to have taken any thing away from the law.
1And he addeth and taketh awaye, not whiche vseth other diuerse, and playner wordes in expoundyng a sentence of the reuelation: but he that putteth in any thinge contrary to the true sense, and variyng from those thinges which are here of the lord expressed: or he that taketh awaye any thing, obscureth or peruerteth, which here the lord himself hath expresely signified. Wherupon Thomas of Aquine: he addeth to sayeth he, which putteth to a lie: he minissheth, which taketh awaye any thing of that which is written therein, or also in deniyng gayne sayeth the same. Thus much he. Therefore this addition and substraction, consisteth not in wordes only but rather in sense. For nother the prophetes in expoundynge the lawe at large, are thought to haue added any thing to God his worde: nother the Apostles preachyng the libertie of the gospel, are saide to haue taken any thing away frō the lawe.
