VERS. XXXVIII.

〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.

Be Baptised every one of you in the name of Iesus Christ.

BEZA tells us, That this doth not declare the Form of Baptism, but the scope and end of it. Yet this clause is wanting in the Syriack Interpreter. Wherever he might have got a Copy wherein this was wanting, yet is it not so in other Copies. But to let that pass: What he sayeth that this doth not declare the Form of Baptism, is, I fear, a mistake: for at that time they Baptised amongst the Jews, in the name of Jesus (although among the Gentiles they Baptised in the Name of the Father, and the Son and holy Ghost) that Jesus might be acknowledged for the Messiah by them that were Baptised, than which nothing was more tenacionsly and obstinately denyed and contradicted by the Jews. Let the Jew therefore in his Baptism own Jesus for the true Messiah, and let the Gentile in his, confess the true God, three in one.
