Hebrews10:29

Verſe 29. Who hath trodden under [illegible: 1 letter]oot] Reſpecting him no more then the vileſt and filthieſt dirt in the ſtreet, or the moſt abject thing in the world, as Ambroſe expounds it: he diſdains to receive benefit by Chriſts propitiatory and expiatory ſacrifice, he would not if he might, he is ſo ſatanized.

The bloud of the Covenant] That is, The bloud of Chriſt, whereby the Covenant is ſealed, the Church purchaſed, the attonement procured, and heaven opened for our more happy entrance.

Where with he was ſanctified] By externall profeſſion, and by participation of the Sacraments.

An unholy thing] Gr. A common, profane thing, as if it were the bloud of a common thief or unhallowed perſon, yea, or of a dead dog. In the Paſſeover they ſprinkled the door and lintell with bloud, but not the threſhold, to teach them, that they muſt not tread upon the bloud of Jeſus, as they do in an high degree that ſin againſt the holy Ghoſt.

And hath done deſpite, &c.] Spitting at him their helliſh venome, perſecuting and blaſpheming his immediate effect, work and office, and this out of deſperate malice, and deſire of revenge, without any colour of cauſe, or meaſure of diſlike. One that had committed this ſin, wiſhed that his wife and children, and all the world might be damned together with him.
