Ephesians5:14
Verſe 14.Iſa. 9.2. & 26.19. & 60.1. Wherefore he ſaith] Or, The Scripture ſaith. See the like Jam. 4.6. But he giveth (or the Scripture giveth) more grace. It convinceth not only, but converteth, it diſcovereth not only, but cureth corrupt hearts. Theſe waters of the Sanctuary are healing. Some there are that interpret this he of our Saviour Chriſt, and take this ſaying for a ſentence of his: ſuch as was that, Act. 20.35. Others reade, Therefore the light ſaith, &c.
Awake thou that ſleepeſt] Lex jubet, gratia juvat: Praecipit Deus, quod ipſe praestat. God giveth us to do what he biddeth us to doe.
