Ministers in infinite places, and that by three Greeke wordes, commonly: but that is a large signification of minister, attribu∣ted to al that minister, waite, serue, or attend to doe any seruice ecclesiastical or temporal, sacred or prophane. If the world bee restrained to any one peculiar seruice or function, as one of the Greeke wordes is, then doth it signifie Deacons onely. Whiche if they know not, or wil not beleeue me, let them see Beza himselfe in his Annotations vpon Saint Mathew, who protesteth, that in his translation, he vseth alwaies the word, Minister, in the ge∣nerall signification: and Diaconus, in the speciall and peculi∣ar Ecclesiasticall function of Deacons. So that yet wee can not vnderstande, neither can they tell vs, whence their peculiar calling and function of Minister commeth, which is their second degree vnder a Bishop, and is placed in steede of Priestes.
FVLK. 2. What the general worde of Minister sig∣nifieth, howe it is taken, both generally and specally, we are not so ignorant, that wee neede bee taught of you: And yet al learned men are not agreed, when the greeke worde 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 is restrained to the Minister of the poore, and when it signifieth generally, all the officers in the Churche. As for the name of Minister, by which, El∣ders or Priestes are commonly called among vs, I haue euen nowe, and diuers times before shewed, vppon what occasion it was taken vp, so to be applied, which yet ge∣nerally signifieth all that serue in the Church, and com∣mon wealth also.
