Verſe 23. Meſſengers] Gr. Apoſtles, Emandati, Ambaſſadours of ſpeciall and high emploiment.

The glory of Chriſt] So the Church is called the glory, Iſa. 4.5. Gods glory, Iſa. 46.13. a crown of glory, and a roiall diadem in the hand of Jehovah, Iſa. 62.3. The throne of God, Exod. 17.16. The throne of glory, Jer. 4.21. The ornament of God, yea the beauty of his ornament, ſet in Majeſty, Ezek. 7.20. There is not ſo much of the glory of God (ſaith one) in all his works of creation and providence, as in one gracious action that a Chriſtian performs. [non-Latin text not transcribed].
