Daniel10:6
Ver. 6. His body alſo was like the Beryl] Of an azure colour, like the heavens. The ſecond Adam is the Lord from heaven, 1 Cor. 15.47. Some render it the Chryſolite, which is of the colour of the Sea; to note, ſay they, his power to purge the Church by his Word, Spirit, and Judgements, as by the water of the Sea.
And his face as the appearance of lightning] Which both ſhineth and terrifieth, and ſoon appeareth from the one end of the heaven to the other, Matth. 24.27. Chriſt ſuddenly diſcovereth all things though never ſo remote, Pſal. 90.8. Ezek. 1.13.
And his eyes as lamps of fire] To note his omniſcience, his wrath alſo and readineſſe to revenge, Jer. 32.19
And his arms and his feet like in colour to poliſhed braſſe] To note his omnipotency in the execution of his wrath, whilſt he trampleth on his enemies,Scintillantes puriſſimè. as he that hath brazen arms and feet can eaſily break in pieces a potters veſſel.
Ser pitus 1. Maris. And the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude] Or, as the noiſe of many waters, Rev. 1.15. noting the efficacy of Chriſts doctrine: See Acts 2.4.
