Matthew23:9
Verse 9. Call no man your father] i.e. Give no man absolute power over you; be not the servants of men, or slaves to their opinions or mandates, as Friers are to their superiours, to argue or debate on whose commands is held high presumption: to search their reasons, proud curiosity: to detract or disobey them, breach of vow equall to sacriledge.Quibus nibil placet nisi quod e capitis sui lirippio ipsi protulerint.
