to the diuers passages of the Scripture.

Steuchius in Gen. 2. God was neuer so inhumane, as to suf∣fer the world in all ages to be tormented with the ignorance of the sense of the Scripture; but if we consider it well, we may in∣terpret it: and for this he citeth Theodoret, who saith, that the Scripture vseth, when it teacheth any high matter, to expound it selfe, and not to suffer vs to runne into error.

Iansenius, Episc. Gandau. on Mat. pag. 413. part 2. Christ hath taught to conferre Scripture with Scripture, if we will not erre in reading of the Scriptures.

Acosta the Iesuite, lib. 3. de Chro, Reuel. cap. 21. pag. 479. There is nothing seemeth to me so to open the Scripture, as the Scripture it selfe.

Canus loc. Theol. lib. 7. cap. 3. num. 13. citeth out of Pope Clement, Epist. 5. ad discipulos Hier. these words: You must not from without seeke a foraine and strange sense, but out of the Scriptures themselues receiue the meaning of the truth.

Cor. 12. nei∣ther is the Scriptures interpretation, any priuate interpretation, though shewed out of a priuate mans mouth, according to that of Panormitan, in cap. signif. Extra. de electis In things concer∣ning faith, the saying of one priuate man, is to be preferred before the words of the Lord Pope, if he bring better reasons out of the new and old Testament. To which agreeth that of Gerson part 1. de examin. doct. More credit is to be giuen to a priuate simple man al∣ledging the Gospell, then either to the Pope, or Councill.

2 Also that they alledge, how Moses did iudge causes, the Priests also and the Leuites, and that the people ought to learne of them. But this is to be vnderstood, as Moses spake from God, and as the Priests and Leuites iudged and taught ac∣cording to the Law, as in the place of Deuteronomie is before answered.
