Note 403 — Chapter XIII
Reading edition
The word being is used by Pearson and Heylyn in the same way as we use the word since. The quotation is from p. 251, in the 12th fol. edit. of Pearson’s Exposition. For Heylyn’s opinions, see Theol. Vet., 255. The contrast between the tone of Pearson and Heylyn is very striking.
