The second question is, how the son of God was subject to the law? Answ. By a twofold obedience: namely, by the obedience §5of his passion, and by his obedience in fulfilling the law. The obedience of his passion stands before God as a satisfaction for the breach of the law. In it consider two things, the foundation of the passion, and the passion it self. The foundation §10is, that the son of God was made sin for us, 2. Cor. 5. 21 that is, all the sins of all the Elect were imputed to him, and he in our room and place was recounted a sinner. The passion it self, is the curse of the law, laid on the son of God, namely, the first death, and the pains of the second death, §15which is in effect and substance, the pains of hell, as I have showed in the 3. chap. v. 13. of this Epistle.
