John Trapp on Revelation 2:17

Verſe 17. Of the hidden Manna] That is, of Chriſt, whom none of the Princes of this world knew: but God hath revealed him to his hidden ones by the Spirit, 1 Cor. 2.8, 10. with Pſ. 83.3. [non-Latin text not transcribed] [illegible: 1 span]. and given them to taſte of that heavenly gift.

A white stone] In token of abſolution. With this white ſtone may the Saints comfort themſelves againſt all the black coals wherewith the world ſeeks to beſmear them. If Libanius could ſay, Let Baſil praiſe me, and I ſhall ſing away all care, who reproacheth me; May not we much more ſay ſo of Chriſt? It is be that juſtifieth us: who ſhall condemn us? Rom 8.34

A new name] Better then that of ſonnes and daughters, Iſa. 56.5. The aſſurance whereof is (ſaith Father Latimer) the ſweet meats of the feaſt of a good conſcience, which is unconceivable and full of glory.
