In the 63 of Isaiah, the Prophet demandeth, who it is that cometh from Edom, and why his garments be 1read? Whereby, answering to the question, he showeth ⟨p. 26⟩that it is Christ: and that his garments are red: because he alone had t•n the winepress, and of all the nations, there was not one with him; which is meant of treading the Edomites and enemies of his Church, and bringing them to confusion. Yet he saith, he trod the press alone, not that he useth not messengers, as is men tioned 2in this Prophet, or other means, as seemeth best to him; but for that the force and efficacy alone proceedeth from him.
