Here you may see what was The True Honour Amongst the JEWS, To Magistrates, Kings, Fathers, Mothers, Masters, Dames, and Old Men; which did not use the putting off the Hat, nor scraping backwards the Foot; And what was the Honour they Forbade; And what is the Honour Peter speaks of, To Honour all men, and to them that Rule Well, that was worthy of Double Honour: among whom, the putting off the Hat was not used: which honour of Christians, since the Apostles days, have turned to putting off the Hat, and scraping Backwards; but putting off the Hat, on Bonnet, or Covering, was not used among the Jews, nor in those parts of the World, though they were to Honour and Esteem, and Respect all Men, loving Enemies. Which Practice, according to Scripture, we own & practice, Honouring all men, and them that Rule Well double Honour, as Fathers, Mothers, Masters, Dames, etc. 1 Pet. 4.1, 2. London, Printed for Robert Wilson, at the Black-Spread-Eagle and Windmill in Martin l'Grand, 1660. Here you may See what was the True Honour amongst the Jews, to Magistrates, Kings, Fathers, Mothers, Masters, Dames, and Old Men; who did not use the putting off the Hat, nor Scraping Backwards the Foot; and what was the Honour they Forbade, and what is the Honour Peter Spoke of, to Honour all Men, etc. The Objections of the World, and the Professors, Teachers, and Magistrates, against the QUAKERS, Answered. FIrst, say They, You do not Honour all Men, which is according to the Apostles Doctrine in the Scriptures, as in 1 Pet. 2.17. Honour all men, Love the Brotherhood; Fear God, Honour the King: And them that Do Well, are Worthy of Double Honour. Answ. Now to Honour all men, is to have all men in Esteem, or to Regard them, as the word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 ●●nifies: And to Honour the King, and them that Rule Well, who are Worthy of Double Honour; That is, They should have Double Esteem, more than they that are Ruled; yet they that are Ruled, are to be had in Esteem, if all men be Honoured, Though they that Rule Well, have Double Esteem; for Honour, is Esteem; Now they that do esteem all men, will not hurt them, will do no man hurt: Now they that do esteem Governors, and Rulers with double esteem, more than common people; they will never hurt their Governors, nor those Rulers, nor people they do esteem: So if all Christendom had esteemed their Governors and Rulers, or one another, they would never have hurt them; for if they esteem them, they love them; And had the esteemed all men, and people, they would never have hurt one another; for they that esteem one another, they love one another; and they that love one another, will not hurt one another, nor suffer others to hurt them, but esteem one another: For will a man hurt that Magistrate he doth esteem? And all men are to be esteemed, and them that Rule Well are worthy of Double Esteem; and then will they hurt them? therefore, if you esteem them, you will do no hurt to them; but this esteem that men should have to one another, hath been turned, and is turned to the putting off the Hat, and scraping the Foot, and bowing the Knee; and he that do this, is taken for an esteemer of men, and an honourer of Magistrates; but they that do this, which is accounted the Honour in these days, yet will Kill and Slay one another, and 'Slight and one another, and Defraud, and Deceive, and deal Traytously one with another, and Dis-esteeming one another; which cannot properly be called the Honour, which the Scripture speaks of, Have one another in esteem; men may have one another in esteem, and yet never put off hat, nor scrape the foot; so you may see they are not the truest people, that do Cap and Scrape, which is called a Worship, and an Honour, for all the Murderers of one another, and of Kings and other Magistrate's, they have been such as Knee, put off the Hat, and scrape; but had they had one another in esteem, and truly regarded each others good, and the Rulers in double esteem, they would never have hurt them, nor one another: And so according to the Scripture, to Honour all men, is to esteem or regard all men, and they that are worthy of double, they are worthy of double esteem, which we own; And this practice was, and is, where there is no putting off Hats; and they that do Honour, which is Respect, Regard, or Esteem, do beautify, and double beautify them that Rule Well, and Adorn them, as you may read, you own words holds forth 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Honoro, in Honore habeo, magni aestimo Interdum & earum babeo, Od. 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉. Iliad. 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉, Tanto habuit in pretio, & tam delxit quam natos suos. And this is with that Respect which men have from God who fear him; and who fear him, have that with which he Beautifies and Adorns; and who fear God, keeps the Commands of Christ Jesus, love enemies; and who love enemies, esteem them; and who esteem them, Honour all men, and sees them that Rule Well, worthy of Double Honour, Double Esteem; and these are they that come to keep brotherly fellowship, which is in the Light; for if we walk in the Light, as he is in the Light, we have fellowship one with another; and the fellowship is in the Spirit, which is the bond of peace, which plungeth down the Corruptions, which makes men Dishonourable, & makes men one another; with which Spirit he comes to give Honour to that part which is lacking; so we have those members in esteem which are least; so that in the fellowship, if one Member be Honoured or Esteemed, as your Teaching Books holds forth in this place, also signifies esteem, even according to your own Rules of Words, and Teaching Books, though you render it honour: Now unto the King Everlasting, Immortal, Invisible; unto God only wise be Honour and Glory, for Ever and Ever, 1 Tim. 17. Now the Apostles, the Saints, amongst all the Courts, amongst all the Jews, the people of God of Old, we do never Read that they ever fell out one with another, or persecuted one another, or put any out of places, or Imprisoned or fined any, or one another for not putting off their Hats, or for not bowing or scraping; but the Prophets, and Christ, judged them that Honoured with their Lips; so there was a Lip Honour: And was not that Lip Honour beyond that of the Hat? and are they not now to be judged, when the heart is far off, seeing it is the heart satisfies? And who had all men in esteem, and gave double to them, who are worthy of it? was not this in the reality in the heart? and it is Read in the Scriptures, that they did wear Hats, as in Dan. 3. yet never Forced, Fined, nor Imprisoned, for not putting off their Hats; and say, they had not men in esteem, except they did put off the Hat. Now if men had men in esteem, that do put off the Hat, and had that been the Estimation, than had all been preserved in Unity and Peace; and the Jews, and other scattered people, which Peter wrote to, were to have one another in esteem, and the Elders in double Esteem, which he doth not say consisteth, or standeth in putting off the Hat; neither do we read that the Jews used it; neither do they, who are Native trueborn Jews or Hebrews, at this day practice putting off the Hat in honour one of another; And the Turks counts it an odious or hateful practice to put off the Hat, (yet they are to Honour) so that it is a Proverb, or Byword among them, that they had rather show their bare head. Now those especially, which Labour in the Word and Doctrine are to be Double Esteemed; for they are clothed with Honour; and them that Labour in the Word and Doctrine they love enemies, and they must of necessity have all men in esteem, that love them; and them that Rule Well, they cannot but have in double Esteem, Joh. 12. He that Honoureth the Son, Honoureth the Father; and that all men should Honour the Son, as they Honour the Father, and he that Honoureth not the Son, Honoureth not the Father. Now Honour is as before, 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 to Esteem, or Respect the Son; he that Esteemeth not the Son, Esteemeth not the Father; or he that Esteemeth or Regardeth the Son, Esteems or Regardeth his Light wherewith he is Lighted, who Enlighteneth every man that cometh into the world; and he that Esteemeth not the Light, Esteemeth neither; for in that is the Fellowship. Now there is an honour which is from below, which people, while they are seeking, cannot Believe, which honour the Pharisees were seeking, which was the esteem they sought from one another; but did not seek that which was from Above. And there is an honouring with lips; there is an esteem, and there is an honouring with the Hat, (called the honour now a days) and have left the esteeming, and double esteeming according to Scripture, which is in Truth and Righteousness in the Heart, which if mwn were in, they would never hurt one another, nor fearing of being hurt one by another. And Christ saith, A Prophet is not without Honour, save in his own Country; and there is an Honour to Father and Mother, and Servants to Honour their Masters, where the Circumstance of putting off the Hat is not; therefore you must know, and consider this, to have them in esteem, and to count them estimable; and so honourable. No man that taketh this honour to himself, (Mat. 25.) but he that is called of God as Aaron was, (Heb. 5.) Now the cry is, that none doth, nor ever shall hear God's voice while upon earth; therefore how can they have that honour, or esteem, or know that esteem which Aaron had? now the vessels of holiness are vessels of honour, and are in esteem in God's eyes; but such as deny the Spirit of God within them, and the Light within them, deny that, whereby they should have all men in esteem; and Rulers in double esteem, and to have God in esteem, and his Son in esteem. And so denying the Spirit of God within, and the Light of Christ within; they put their Honour to the Hat, and Bowing, & Scraping, & are offended if they have it not; so living out of the Will of God, which is Sanctification, by which they should receive that Honour which is from above; and so are in a Will-Worship, and feigned Humility, without any true Honour, neglecting the body, for the satisfying of the flesh; honouring with their Lips, and people with their Hats, when their Hearts are afar off. And putting off the Hat, is but a Fashion of the World, and an outward thing, like unto the Lip Honour and Tradition of men, which must not be touched, nor tasted, nor followed: The Apostles were in Honour and Dishonour, where they preached up and down; so some Esteemed them, and some Disesteemed them; now them that Disesteemed them, Persecuted; if they had esteemed them, they would not have Persecuted them, nor have Hurt them: now this you cannot put to the Hat, or to them That did not put off their Hats to them; for do you not think all those that have Murdered and Persecuted one another, would not put off their Hats to them, and to one another; and all the Betrayers of one another, and Backbiters, and Evil Speakers, and Underminers of one another, Will not these Honour the same person with the Lip and Cap? Now if these had one another in Esteem, which is to Love one another, than Love would never hurt, nor plot, nor disturb, nor raise insurrections one against another, if they honoured all men. 2. Object. Let every Soul be subject to the Higher Power, Rom. 13. And you do not put off your Hats; And the Scripture saith, he that Resisteth the Power, resisteth the Ordinance of God; and they that do so, receive to themselves Judgement. Answ. Now the Soul, which is Immortal, must be subject to the Power; there is no power but of God, and this power is over that Powers of Darkness, which are called * That are out of Truth. Rulers and Power; now to this the Soul is subject, and he that resisteth this, resisteth the Ordinance of God. Here you may see that Power is God's Ordinance, which the Soul must be subject to; and Honour, to whom Honour; and Custom, to whom Custom; and Tribute, to whom Tribute; and Esteem, to whom Esteem. And the Powers which be, are ordained of God, to which the Soul must be subject; for there is no Power, but which is of God. That is, there is no Supreme Authority, Rule, or Governments that are ordained by his Power, but are of God; and the Powers, and Principalities, and Thrones, which the Apostles wrestled withal with Spiritual Weapons, and the Rulers of Darkness in high places, these were contrary to the power of God which went over them, unto these their Souls were not subject, for they wrestled against them: Therefore that power which the Soul must be subject to, is not that which is wrestlest against with Spiritual Weapons, which is Christ the Power of God, which Subjects all Powers, Rulers and Governments unto himself; but it is that which minds the lip-honour, and the hat, and the honour below. 3. Object. Be kindly affectionated one to another, with brotherly love; Rom. 12. In honour, preferring one before another. Now here is esteeming one another in love; so as I said before, they do never hurt one another, who prefer and esteem one another: Now the Christians were to honour all men, that is, to have all men in esteem, even to love enemies, and were not to hurt any Creature upon earth. Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lords sake, whether it be to the King, as Supreme, or other Governors or Superiors, or Rulers, or Magistrates, who are for the punishment of Evil Doers, and for the praise of them that do Well: So that which keeps down the evil doer (the just) that is to be submitted to, which is for the praise of them that do well; but evil doers getting up, that are not for the praise of them that do well; The Apostles exhorts, That prayers be made for Rulers that are in Authority, and Intercession, and giving of thanks be made for all men, likewise as well as for those that are in Authority, Rulers, etc. And that we might live a quiet and peaceable life, in all godliness and honesty; That is, that the Lord may restrain them (who hath them in his hand, as he hath the waters) that they may not lead us into ungodlyness and dishonesty; for that leads out of a peaceable life and quietness, ungodliness and dishonesty doth: Therefore prayers are for them that are in Rule and Authority; and intercession to the Lord for them, that we may live a peaceable Life, and a godly Life, and when they are stopped from leading and forcing to act things contrary to godliness and honesty, and a pure conscience, there is then cause of and Praising, 1 Pet. 2.17. For the Apostles did cross the Jews and Gentiles in their Ordinances, Statutes and Customs; Yet wrote, that every soul should be subject to the higher power, and to every ordinance of man for the Lords Sake, and Conscience Sake; even the pure Conscience Sake. Now all Fining and Imprisoning for not putting off the hat, hath got up since the Apostles days; seeing we never read amongst the Prophets, amongst the Jews, amongst the Christians in the Primitive Times, that ever they did fine or imprison any for not putting off their Hats: therefore is not this fining and Imprisoning amongst the Christians, got up since the Apostles days? and is not this Cap-Honour from below, and worshipping the Beast and Dragon, which hath killed, persecuted, murdered and betrayed one another, and yet have had the Name of Christians, and have put off hats one to another fast enough; but if they had had one another in esteem, and the Rulers that ruled well in double esteem, than had never any of them been hurt nor wronged in the whole Christendom, if they had esteemed one another; but now you may see what is become with this lip-honour, and lip-worship, who are treacherous, and murderous in their hearts. Now that which is in esteem, is worshipful, and comes to have the chiefest place, such are worthy of double esteem; but the Ambitious, which seeks the honour before the humility, Luke 13.23. as Solomon speaks of, are reproved; for before true honour, goeth humility; the honour and worship with the hat, and that humility (so called) is voluntary, and voluntary humility, and not of command by Christ and the Apostles; and an honour below, and not from above; and a fashion of the World, and the fashions of the World are forbidden by God and his Servants. The Salutation which the Scripture speaks of, was to speak one to another. The Apostles say, the fashion of this world passeth away, therefore the Saints were not to mind them; A salutation, that mind that is in pride, is offended, if to him it be not given; and it is a Custom of the World, and a thing below, which they that are Earthly, or below, seek; which they that be Heavenly seek not, and are from above, but seeks the things which be above, and these are not troubled about that below, but are of a more Royal Seed; but they that be Earthly are troubled, if they have it not given them, which are covered, but not with the Spirit of the Lord; but they that are uncovered with the earthly, and covered with the Spirit of the Lord, are untroubled if men do not give it them, but stops them that do; and this seeks the honour above, and adorns and beautifies people with that: And out Brother Paul, which came before King Fe●ius, and Felix the Governor in their Court, and spoke and declared freely for himself, they were not offended at him for Thou-ing of them, and for not putting off his Hat or Covering, for that the Jews Custom was not to put off their Hats or Cover. And they that have all men in esteem, and they that rule well are worthy of double esteem; this is not to respect persons, to the committing of sin, and the transgressing the Law, and the putting off the Hat, the giving of honour and esteem to the Rulers and Great men, the same is given to the Beggar; and this doth not discover men's hearts, but a discovering and manifesting flattery, and hypocrisy, and such as will crouch, and bow, and bent for a piece of bread, for their own ends; and for that respect of bowing, are not men accepted, for bowing with the hat off? that are covered, but not with the Spirit of the Lord, they that have that covering taken off with the Spirit of God, and covered with that, it gives them a Royaller understanding, to look beyond that honour below, but at that honour which comes down bowing the Hat, is a will-worship, and that which discovers men's hearts, * Which is not in the Hat. is the Spirit of God, and leads their minds together, to be one, and their Souls, and their Spirits; and to manifest their love to each other, and to have one another in esteem; which is a more nobler thing than the Hat, for that honour must into the dust: Where is any that sought more for the honour, which is below; then the Great, and Rich, and Proud Pharisees did? as now the Christians do for the hat-honour which is below, which is a figure, that they are neither believers, nor seek not the honour which is from Above; and so will people in our Nation, which they will both give, and seek, which God will lay both in the dust: so we would have all men come to distinguish, and consider, what that honour which is below, is, that God will lay in the dust; for that is the honour for which men, if it be not given to them, will persecute: Daniel came into the Great Court of Nabuchadnezzar, and the Three Children with their hats, and they were cast into the Fire, for not worshipping their Image with their Hats; Therefore it shows they had them on, and did not put them off, they were cast into the Fire with them, as well as with their Cloaks; and Nabuchadnezzar, and his Court, and his Company, were not Offended at their Hats; for it was not the Jews Custom to put them off, and they were of the Jews; neither do we read that Nabuchadnezzar was Offended at them; Daniel, and the Three Children thee'd him, and thou'd him; and we never Read that Hezekiah was offended at Jeremiah, for thee-ing him, and thou-ing him; or the Judges and Heads offended at Micah, when he spoke to them, or did make any question about their Covering, or Hat; nor we never Read, that ever Moses, or David, or Solomon, were offended at any for not putting their hats off, or cover, or for thee-ing, and thou-ing of them that came into the Courts before them, or among them; or Samson, or Joshua, or Jephthah, that these, or any other that we Read of in the Scriptures, were offended at any that came into their Courts, that did not put off their hats or cover; or for saying thee, and thou to them, though Jephthahs' Daughter thou'd her Father; for the Jews principle was, that they did not put off their hats when they went into the Synagogues or Temples that kept the Law of God; though many of the Vagabond Jews will do as other Nations do, it may be some of them will put off their hats, but that is not owned by them that are true Jews, as it is said by themselves. And Steven he was Examined before the Council, Act. 7. We do not read they were offended at his covering. Haman was offended at Mordecay, because he would not obey the King's Command, and Bow before him in his Court; and though he broke the King's Command, yet he had favour from him at the last; for he had the King in esteem; so we would have men, to have all men in esteem, and the Rulers that Rule Well, in double Esteem; for we have all men in esteem, and they that Rule Well, in double Esteem, which is Honour according to your own Interpretation. And Christ the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords, Who hath all power in Heaven and Earth given to him, we never Read of, that he set forth an example, or command, that his Disciples, or any other, should put off their hats that came before him, that had the chiefest Court upon all the Earth. Now there has been an honour, and a worship given to the Beast, and the Dragon, since the Apostles days, and a compelling thereunto. Now men have been Fined, and Imprisoned, because they would not put off their cover, or their hats, among the apostate christians, since the Apostles days; which we never Read was done among the Primitive Christians, in the Apostles days; and we do never Read, that the Apostles, Timothy, Titus the Bishops, did Fine, or Imprison any that did not put off their hats, or their cover, for they brought people to seek the things which were Above; and to set their affections upon them, and not on things below, and not to mind earthly things; for the hat is an earthly thing, and a thing below; and they that Trouble, Fine, Imprison about it, cannot choose but mind earthly things, and mind things below, and Circumstances, and Customs, and Fashions of the World, and sained Humility, in which there is no Substance, which is below the Royal Seed, and the Nobility, and Dignity of a man; and the honour Above, and the worship of God, and the true Humility, which goes before True Honour, that is Above. And we never read among all the Jews Courts, Rulers, Kings, and Governors, or among all the christians, Christ, and the Apostles, in the Primitive times, that ever any were Fined, or Imprisoned, or Beat for not putting off their cover or their hats, or saying the word thou to a man; but this practice hath been, and is gotten up since the Apostles days; for which in the Scriptures, we have never an Example; Moses said unto Aaron, and Eliazer, and Ithamar his Sons, Uncover not your Heads, nor Rend not your , lest you Die, and Wrath come upon the people. This was a Time when the Burning of the Lord was Kindled, and shows their heads were covered when they were before Moses, and he was not offended; and their uncovering their heads shown the Sorrow; and keeping their heads all covered, shown as if they were not moved, whereby the wrath was not to come upon the people; and this shown that they had their heads covered before Moses, and he bid them keep them on, and not uncover them, Levit. 10 6. And the Priest was not to uncover his Head, nor rend his , Levit. 21.10. in the Sanctuary, which is contrary to the Priests now in their Temples. And David in the time of his sufferings, and as they went up by the assent of the Mount of Olivet, wept; and as he went, his head was covered, and all the people that went with him, covered every man his head, and went weeping; which signifieth, that they used to have their heads covered before the King; for in the time of suffering and mourning, they used to uncover their heads, and throw dust on them; and David the King was not offended at the people's heads being covered, for his head was covered, and their heads was covered: And by this you may know there was no respect, nor honour with the hat. Now the Jews used not to honour their Kings, nor one another by uncovering their heads, though they did honour their Kings, by having them in esteem and respect, and that was their Honour; for he bowed the hearts of the people, he doth not say, he bowed the cover of their heads, and was offended if they did not; for the Jews never used to uncover their heads to the King, Ruler, Judge, nor Supreme, nor one to another, 2 Sam. 15.3. But Jeremiah, Lament. 2. speaks of casting dust, and ashes on their heads; this was the estate of the mourning. And Ezekiel 27.30. They cast du●t and ashes on their heads, in the time of weeping and mourning; and the Lord said unto Ezekiell, forbear to cry, make no mourning for the dead; bind thy attire on thy head. Which shown in the time of mourning, many did uncover their heads, which the Lord God forbade, as Moses did formerly, though for the time they did not, For their heads were covered, Chron. 24.17. And the Lord put on Righteousness, as a Breastplate, and the Helmet of Salvation upon his Head, and the Garments of Vengeance for Clothing, and Clad with Zeal for a Cloak, Isaiah 59.17. And Mordecai bowed not, nor reverenced Haman, though it was the King's Commandment. Now was this an Example Recorded, that proud men should be reverenced and bowed unto, though it be to the breaking of the Commandment of a King, or Ruler, which is to the hazarding the lives of so many thousands as he did: I say, was this an Example Recorded to be followed yea, or nay? Hester 3. The three Children which would not observe Nebuchadnezars worship, Dan. 3. nor bow to his Image, nor keep his Command, but were bold; you may say they were Stubborn, for not doing so, they cast them in the Fiery Furnace, bound them, their Coats, their Hosen, and their Hats, and other Garments, which shows they had their Hats on: and they did not put off their Hats, but stood with their Hats on before the King, and he was not offended with them for that, and it was not the Jews custom to put off their Hats. Now is not Christians worse than these, who make such a work, and a do about putting off their hats, which are for the covering their nakedness? is not here the Christians worse than Moses, than David, or Nabuchadnezzar, before whom the Jews wore their hats without offence, which the Christians cannot bear, who profess a State beyond the Jews? but the true Jews would not put off their hats, for a thousand pounds to any one, they say themselves, not to King, nor their own Kings, nor in the Synagogue, nor in the Temple, nor in the Streets to any man; and their honouring men, is to have them in esteem in their hearts, and the custom is, to take a man by the hand, though some of the portugal Jews, and the Jews in England will put off their hats, and say your Servant, Sir, who are judged by others of them for so doing. Thou shalt rise up before the Hoary Head, an Honour the face of the Old Man, and Fear God. Now this honour was to have in esteem and respect, and give them their place as Elders, but not put off the hat to them, not for a thousand pounds, say the Jews, but honour them in their hearts, and have them in respect, as being aged, Levit. 19.32. Exod. 20. Thou shalt Honour thy Father, and Mother, that thy Days may be long in the Land which the Lord thy God giveth thee; this was not to grieve them, nor offend them; if they struck, not to strike them again, but to be subject to them, and have them in esteem, but never to put off their hats; no, not such a thing for a thousand pounds, say the Jews; so this honour to Elders, Fathers, Mothers, and Rulers, have people put to the hat, and scraping, and to the old men, and Hoary Heads, and thrown away respect, and submissiveness, and the practice of the Law; and so boldness, impudence, envy, threatening, malice, fight, disdain, derision, unsubmissiveness, no obedience, repining, and strikings, dishonouring against Father, Mother, Rulers, yet scrape, and put off the hat to them, and doing that, they think its sufficient, and in that loses all the true obedience, and respect, and reverence, and esteem, and submissiveness, which be done from the heart, without cap, and scrape like a Bull that throws the dust backwards. But honouring the Father and Mother, is a figure of honouring God, which was to have them in esteem, and not to offend, not fin● to grieve them; as not to sin to grieve and offend God; but by their obedience they had them in esteem in the Lord, as they had the Lord. And likewise Servants honour their Masters, or Dames, which was not the practice with the hat, but with respect and reverence, and submissive obedience; not with the hat, Scrape, Courtesies, and bending, and outside fashions, but in the obedience of the heart, which doth array, and beautify; and if they were struck, not to strike again, knowing that they had a Master in Heaven, wherein they were kept in their measures, whence arises all good manners, and by which they were kept out of the Evil Words, which did corrupt them. G. F. To be Courteous, Kind, Affectionate, Affable, Decent, that is, to be gracious, which is not meant by putting off the Hat; for they that were so, did not use it. 1 Pet. v. i. Forasmuch then; as Christ ●ath suffered for us in the flesh, Arm yourselves likewise 〈◊〉 the same mind: For he that hath suffered in the flesh ha●● ceased from sin. Vers. 2. That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh, to the Lusts of men, but to the Will of God. Page 2. line 36. read dilexit for delxit. THE END.
