John Trapp on John 3:12

Verſe 12. If I have told you earthly things,] That is, ſpirituall things, under earthly groſſe ſimilitudes, of winde, water, &c. In the myſtery of Chriſt, the beſt of us are acutè obtuſi. But for the naturall man, that cannot tell the nature of the winde, or enter into the depth of the flower, or the graſſe, &c. how ſhould he poſſibly have the wit to enter into the deep things of God, eſpecially if darkly delivered.
