John Trapp on Ephesians 1:6

Verſe 6. To the praiſe of the glory] This is the end whereunto it is deſtined: and hence it is called Predestination. Note here that all the cauſes of predeſtination are meerly without us. The efficient, God: the materiall, Chriſt: the formall, the good pleaſure of his will: the finall, the praiſe of Gods glorious grace.

Wherein he hath made us accepted] Gr. [non-Latin text not transcribed]. Gratificavit. Vulgata. He hath ingratiated us, he hath juſtified us, made us gracious in his beloved ſonne our Mediatour. And although there be an inequality of expreſſions in duty, Quoad nos, in us, yet there is a conſtancy of worth and interceſſion by Chriſt, propter nos, for us.
