Vers. 28. Marvell not at this: for the hour is coming, in which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice.
Vers. 28. Maruell not at this: for the houre is comming, in which all that are in the graues shall heare his voyce.
IN this Verse is contained, first, a Reproof of the incredulity of the Jews, [Marvell not]: for they took Christ for no other then an ordinary man, and therefore did not believe that which he had spoken, Vers. 26, 27. of his power and authority; but wondered much that he should say such things of himself. ⟨p. 53⟩There is an holy admiration without doubting, as when we admire the great works of God, whereof yet we make no doubt: but so to wonder, as to call in question any truth of God, to think it impossible, because we apprehend not the reason of it; this is a fault, and here reproved. For hereby we do impeach the power of God, and bring it to our own reason.
