3 b God moued this infidele to speake this, to declare the great blindnes and obstinacie of the Jewes, which colde not fele that which this heathen man confessed.

4 / Or, as thy commandement.

6 c Which was a citie of Judah.

10 / Or, chosen to dwel in.

14 g For vnder the colour of interteining of Ishmael he soght onely to make them to destroy one another.

16 h Thus the godlie, which thinke no harme to others, are sonest deceiued & neuer lacke such as conspire their destruction.
