John Trapp on Hebrews 12:2

Verſe 2. [non-Latin text not transcribed]. Looking unto Jeſus] Gr. Looking off thoſe things that may either divert or diſcourage, and looking unto Jeſus with loving and longing looks.

The authour and finiſher] The Alpha and Omega, the beginner and ender. In all other things and arts, Non eſt ejuſdem invenire & perficere, the ſame man cannot begin and finiſh. But Chriſt doth both, Phil. 1.5.

Endured the croſſe] Ran with a courage though he ran with the croſſe upon his back all the way.

Despiſing the ſhame] Whereof mans nature is moſt impatient. Chriſt ſhamed ſhame (ſaith an Interpreter) as unworthy to be taken notice of, in compariſon of his deſigne.
