VERS. VIII.
〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.
Eat such things as are set before you.
THE Traditional Canons were so very precise and curious, about not eating unless what were clean, what had been duly tythed, and from which the Trumah had been duly separated, that it might be almost a wonder, the strict Traditionists should not be famisht, if they liv'd and fed only by Canon. c 1.1Let not the〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉the religious serve at the table of a laick, unless all things be rightly prepared and decimated.
From the irksomness and perplexity of this niceness doth our Saviour acquit and absolve his followers, partly that he might introduce the Gospel-liberty; partly also consulting the necessity of his Disciples, who, if they had been bound up to that strictness in meats, what could they do, when their converse was to lye chiefly amongst persons perfectly unknown to them.
