He had, wer. 2. incouraged their d*{ire of ſpiritual gifts ; all along the Chapter he hath been magnifying rhe gift of Prophecy above the gitr of Tongues, as being of much more veneral uſe, and more for the profit of others ; bur he minds them here, that he did not forbid thute ro whom God had given the gitt of Tongues, to make ulc of itat due tunes, and in a due manner and
order. | 40 Let all things be done decently, and in or- aer 2. | z Hz forbad them not to fpeak with Tongues, provided they did it decently and orderly, as all other things ought to be done tn fo grave an Aſſembly. as that of the Church, and 1n fo grave an Agi-) 01, as the Worſhip of God.
