Romans4:11

That righteouſneſſe might be imputed] How fooliſh is that inference of Thammerus, [non-Latin text not transcribed]. that becauſe the word here uſed to ſignifie imputed, comes of a word that ſignifies reaſon, therefore the righteouſnes of faith muſt be ſuch as a man may underſtand and comprehend by reaſon?
