preaching to them that which he termed to be the word of God,

to impart the word of God unto the people,

the people also left their labors to hear the word of God.

And when the priest had imparted unto them the word of God

they all returned again diligently unto their labors; and the priest,

not esteeming himself above his hearers,

and they did all labor, every man according to his strength.

having no respect to persons as to those who stood in need.
