1But the gentiles he contriveth not into any certain number, but sayeth how he saw a great multitude, which no man could tell: no more than they could the stars, sand, herbs, or grass how many they were in number. He signifieth therefore, that in all the world, at all times innumerable are saved ⟨p. 225⟩by Christ nevertheless leest any man should think that it should prevail or hinder him to salvation, to be borne of this or that nation tribe or tongue: S. John addeth incontinently, of all tribes, people and tongues to be ordained to salvation indifferently. Therefore this difference hindereth salvation nothing: but are found in Inde, Ethiopia, Barbaria, and in the furthest part of Libya, in Scythia, Tartaria, and in the uttermost ends of the world, which are saved by the grace of Christ.
1But the gentiles he contriueth not into any certen numbre, but saieth how he sawe a great multitude, which no man could tel: no more thā they coulde the starres, sande, herbes, or grasse how many they were in nūbre. He signifieth therfore, that in al the worlde, at al times innumerable are saued ⟨p. 225⟩by Christe neuerthelesse leeste any man should thinke that it should preuaile or hinder him to saluation, to be borne of this or that nation tribe or tonge: S. Iohn addeth incontinently, of al tribes, people and tonges to be ordeyned to saluation indifferently. Therfore this difference hindereth saluation nothing: but are founde in Inde, Aethiopia, Barbaria, and in the furthest parte of Libia, in Scythia, Tartaria, and in the vttermost endes of the worlde, whiche are saued by the grace of Christ.
