John5:28
Verſe 28. Marvell not at this] And yet who can but marvell at this great myſtery of godlineſſe, whereat Angels ſtand amazed? yea, whereat he himſelfe wonders; and therefore calls his own Name Wonderfull, Iſa. 9.6. It is truly affirmed of Chriſt, Mirari decet, non rimari. that he is created, and uncreated, without beginning, and yet began in time, a Jew, according to the fleſh, and yet God, bleſſed forever, &c. The manner hereof is to be beleeved, not diſcuſſed, admired, not pried into, &c.
His voice] Put forth by the Miniſtery of mighty Angels, 1 Theſ. 4.16. and called by the Apoſtle [non-Latin text not transcribed]; a metaphor from Water-men, [illegible: 1 word] call upon one another, and ſtrike oars together, as it were with one conſent.
