BRethren to Abrahā & his sede were the {pro}∣myses made / he sayth nat / in the sedes as in many / but in thy sede / as in one whiche is Chryst This I say / the the lawe whiche begā af∣ter wardes / beyond. iiij. hondred &. xxx. yeres dothe nat disanull / the Testamēt that was cōfyrmed afo∣re of god vnto Chryst warde / to make the promyse of none effecte / for yf the inherytaunce come of the lawe / it commeth nat of promyse but god gaue it to Abrahā by promyse / wherfore thē serueth the lawe / the lawe was added bycause of trāsgressyon (tyl the sede came to which the promyse was made) & it was ordeyned by angels ī the hāde of a mediator. A Me¦diator is nat a Mediator of one / but god is one / is the law then agaynst the promyse of god? God for∣byd howbeit if there had ben a law gyuen / whiche

coulde haue gyuen lyfe / then no doute ryghtwyse∣nes shulde haue come by the lawe / but the scripture concludeth all thynges vnder syn that the promys by the fayth of Iesus Chryst shulde be gyuen vnto them that byleue.

IEsus sayde vnto his discyples / happy are the eyes / whiche se that ye se. For I tell you that many pro∣phetes and kynges haue desyred to se tho¦se thynges which ye se / and haue nat sene thē / and to heare those thynges whiche ye heare & haue nat herde them / & beholde / a certayne lawier stode vp / and tempted hym sayēge. Mayster what shall I do to inheryte eternal lyfe? He sayd vnto hym / what is wryttē ī the lawe? howe redest thou? and he answered & sayd. Loue thy lorde god with all thy herte & with all thy soule / and with all thy strength and with all thy myude / and thy neyghbour: as thy selfe. And he sayde vnto hym / thou hast answered ryght this, do and thou shalt ly∣ue / he wyllynge to iustifye hym selfe sayde vnto Ie∣sus / who is then my neyghbour. Iesus answered and sayde. A certayne man descended from Ieru∣salem in to Ierico / and fel in to the handes of the∣ues / whiche robbed hym of his rayment / and woun∣ded hym / & departed leauynge hym halfe deed / and by chaunce there cam a certayne p̄est that same way and when he sawe hym he passed by / and lykewyse a Leuyte / when he was come nye to the place / wēte and loked on hym / and passed by. Then a certayne Samaritan as he iorned cam nye vnto hym / & whē

he saw hym had cōpassyon on hym and wēt to hym and boūd vp his woundes / and powred in oyle and wyne / and put hym on his owne beest / and brought hym to a comon in / and made prouysion for hym / & on the morowe when he departed / he toke out two pens / and gaue them to the hoste / and sayde vnto hī take cure of hym / and what soeuer thou spēdest mo∣re / when I come agayne / I wyl recompence the. which now of these thre / thynkest thou / was neygh∣boure vnto hym that fell in to the theues handes. And he sayde he that shewed mercy on hym. Then sayde Iesus vnto hym / go and do thou lyke wyse.
