Philippians1:27

Verſe 27. Only let your converſation] q. d. If you would that God ſhould hear you, and deliver me, be ready prepared for the receipt of ſuch a mercy. The fountain of divine grace will not be laden at with foul hands, Pſ. 66.17. The lepers lips ſhould be covered according to the law.

Let your converſation] Your civil converſation, [non-Latin text not transcribed] your common commerce, and interdealings with men alſo. Hippocrates took an oath of his followers to keep their profeſſion unſtained, and their lives unblameable.

Striving together for the faith] As the Barons of Polonia profeſſed to do, by their ſtarting up at the reading of the Goſpel, Anno 965. and drawing out their ſwords half way, in teſtimony that they would ſtick and ſtand to the defence of that truth to the very death.Io. Funccius. Help the truth in neceſſity, ſtrive with it, and for it.
