Matthew4:22

22 And they immediately left the ship, and their Father, and followed him.

There was another Iames, Math. 10.3. the Son of Alpheus, called Iames the less. Brother of Ioses and Salome, Mar. 15.40. this was Iames the Son of Zebedee [and Iohn] who is thought to be the Evange[illegible: 2 letters]st. Christ calleth them, not with his Voice only, but by his Spirit, affecting their Hearts. So as they immediately left their Ship, and their Father, elsewhere the D[illegible: 1 letter]sc[illegible: 1 letter]ples say, Master we have left all and followed thee, probably their Imployment with their Ship was their All. They left their Father also, but it was upon Christ's Call, in which Case it is every Mans Duty (and followed him) to learn of him before they went out to Preach him, and to be Witnesses of his Miracles, &c.
