John Trapp on 2 Corinthians 5:17

Verſe 17. Is a new creature] Either a new man, or no man in Chriſt.

All things are become new] The ſubſtance of the ſoul is the ſame, the qualities and operations altered. In regeneration our natures are tranſlated, not deſtroied, no not our conſtitution and complexion. As the melancholy man doth not ceaſe to be ſo after converſion, only the humour is ſanctified to a fitneſſe for godly ſorrow, holy meditation, &c. ſo, of other humours.
