Here remember, these words may not be taken, as if christ were a material & earthly coat, made of cloth to cover our bodies: they are spiritual words, & have a spiritual understanding. Chrisostome saith, Omnia tibi factus est Christus mensa, vestimentum, domus, caput, et radix. 1Christ is become all things for thee thy table, thy garment, thy house, thy head, & thy root. Origen saith, verbum dei et caro dicitur, et panis, et lac, et holera. The word of God is called flesh, and bread, & milk, and herbs-Nazianzen also saith, Quemadmodū dominus Jesus appellatur vita, via, panis, vitis, lux vera, et ⟨image 121⟩mille alia: ita etiam appellatur gladius. After the same manner, as our Lord Jesus Christ is called the life, the way, the bread, the wine, the true light, and a thousand things else: so is he also called the sword.
