I answere, that Gods spirite knoweth best how to inter∣pret the scripture, and consequently that S. Mathew meaneth nothing els by these wordes, (neither in this world, neither
in the world to come) but that the sinne against the holy ghost, shall neuer be forgiuen. For so doth S. Marke, another Euan∣gelist, interprete this selfe same text.

Mathew himself so expoundeth himselfe,* 1.2 in the next verse aforegoing. And so doth S. Chryso∣stome expound this place.
