1 Corinthians15:55
55 O death, where is thy sting ? O grave, where is thy victory? .
The Apostle, in the contemplation of this blessed day, triumpheth over death; in a Metaphorical Phrase, Where is thy sting? What hurt canst thou now do unto Believers, more than a Wasp, or Hornet, or Bee, that hath lost its sting?
O Grave, or O Hell, (the same word signifieth both) where now is thy Victory? The Conquerour of all flesh is now conquered, the Spoiler of all men is spoiled; it had got a Victory, but now, O Death, where is thy Victory?
Marginal references: Hos. 13.14.; Or, O Hell.
