Again, we read Exod. 3 6. that the Lord said unto Moses, I am the God of thy Fathers, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. In which place it may seem not a sufficient proof to confirm so great a matter. Howbeit our Saviour CHRIST useth it as a bulwark against the Sadducees, Matth 22 32. where our Saviour Christ to prove the resurrection, inferreth the same words, adding to them thus much, God is not the God of the dead, but of the living: where we see how Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob being alive, have their bodies in the Lord his hands in keeping, as well as their souls. Wherefore seeing both the Prophets and Christ himself have used this place to that end, we also may safely use it to prove the Resurrection.
