Saint Augustine seems to stand amazed at the mystery which appears in this ⟨p. 2⟩Chapter.1 Calvin saith, that God doth hear Thunder from on high. Junius saith, that he was never struck with an apprehension of the Deity, till he read this Chapter: affirming it to be the first, and chiefest cause of his conversion from Atheism, to a sincere embracing of Christianity. And in all this Chapter, I find no richer and fuller sentence then this, which describes Christs fullness for us: Of his fullness we have all received grace for grace.
