In the 11. of John, Christ is said to love the whole family, and here he is said to come unto them. For whom he loveth he cannot choose but visit, like the friends of Job that came to comfort him in his great adversity: yea, and the greater love he beareth unto any, the oftener he will resort 1unto them, yea, he will come and dwell with them, Joh. 14. 23. Like Jacob that came down into Egypt, to his beloved son Joseph, and dwelt in Goshen. But Christ is yet 2more kind then Jacob was, for he came not till he was sent for with horses and Chariots: but Christ came of his own 3accord to this beloved family.
In the 11. of Iohn, Christ is said to loue the whole familie, and here he is saide to come vnto them. For whome hee loueth hee cannot choose but visite, like the friendes of Iob that came to comfort him in his great aduersitie: yea, and the greater loue he beareth vnto any, the oftner hee wil resort 1vnto them, yea, he will come and dwell with them, Ioh. 14. 23. Like Iacob that came downe into Egypt, to his beloued sonne Ioseph, and dwelt in Goshen. But Christ is yet 2more kind then Iacob was, for he came not till hee was sent for with horses and Chariots: but Christ came of his owne 3accord to this beloued familie.
