The works of the Reverend and learned John Lightfoot D. D., late Master of Katherine Hall in Cambridge such as were, and such as never before were printed : in two volumes : with the authors life and large and useful tables to each volume : also three maps : one of the temple drawn by the author himself, the others of Jervsalem and the Holy Land drawn according to the author's chorography, with a description collected out of his writings.

VERS. XV.

〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉;

What is it then?

THE Apostle renders in Greek the Phrase 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 most common in the Schools, e 1.1 Rab∣ba asked Abai, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 A man goes in to the woman, when she is espoused: what then? Or what is to be resolved in that case? Again, f 1.2 The wife saith, I will suckle the Infant: but the husband saith, thou shalt not suckle him. The women hearken. But the husband saith, that she should suckle it, the wife saith not. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 What is then to be done? g 1.3 One goes in the street, and finds a purse, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 What is to be done with it? behold it becomes his. But an Israelite comes, and gives some signs of it, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉; What is then to be resolved on? 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 h 1.4 Let our Master teach us, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 A Priest that hath a blemish, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉; What is it, that he lift up his hands, to bless the people? that is, What is to be resolved concerning him? whether he should lift up his hands or no? And the determination of the Question follows every where.

To the same sense the Apostle in this place, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉; What therefore is to be done in this case, about the use of an unknown tongue? he determines, I will pray with the Spi∣rit, and I will pray with the understanding.

So vers. 26. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉; What is it, brethren? that is, What is to be done in this case, when every one hath a Psalm, hath a doctrin, &c. He determines, Let all things be done to edification.

〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, &c.

I will pray with the Spirit, &c.

That is, in the demonstration of the gifts of the Spirit; and I will pray with the understanding, that is, That I be understood by others.
