[ 265] A Minister to be able and well furnished.

CAleb said to his men,* 1.1 I will bestow my daughter upon one of you; but he that will have her, must first win Kiriath Sepher: i. e. a City of Books; he must quit himself like a man,* 1.2 he must fight valiantly. And certainly, he that will be one of God's Priests, an Ambassador of Christ, a true Minister of the Word and Sacraments, must not be such a one, that runs before he is sent; that hath a great deal of zeal, but no knowledge at all to guid it: But one that is called of God, that hath lain long before Kiriath Se∣pher, that hath stayed some time at the University, and commeth thence full fraught with good learning; such a one, and such a one onely, is a fit match for Caleb's daughter, fit to be a dispencer of God's Word and Sacraments.
