Resolution is either Notation, or Collection.
Notation is, when as the doctrine is expressed in the place propounded. Rom. 3. 9. We have already proved that all both Jews and Gentiles are under sin. 10. As it is written; there is none righteous, no not one. 11. There is none that understandeth, none that seeketh God. 12. All are gone out of the way: they have been made altogether unprofitable: there is none that doth good, no not one. Act. 2. 24. Whom God hath raised up, and loosed the sorrows of death, because it was impossible that he should be held of it. 25. For David saith concerning him, I beheld the Lord always before me: for he is at my right hand, that I should not be shaken. 26. Therefore did mine heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad, and moreover also ⟨p. 92⟩my flesh shall rest in hope. 27. Because thou wilt not not leave my soul with the dead, neither wilt suffer thine holy one to see corruption.
