The other place is in the twelve chapter of the same gospel, where it is thus written word for word; Therefore could they not believe, 1because Isaiah said again, He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their hart, least they should see with their eyes, and understand with their hart, and be converted, and I should heal them. This did Isaiah say, when he saw his glory, and spake of ⟨p. 27⟩him. Those two pronouns (His and of Him) without all doubt have relation unto Christ. For a little before, the evangelist had said; When he (namely Christ) had done so many miracles in their sight, yet they believed not in him, that the saying of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, &c.

For a litle before, the euangelist had said; When he (namelie Christ) had doone so manie miracles in their sight, yet they beleeued not in him, that the saieng of Esaie the prophet might be fulfilled, &c. And to this opinion (which indéed is agréeble to the scriptures) Chrysostom, Ierom, Cyril, and Augustine doo consent. Moreouer, the words of the prophet Ose, which he hath in the 12. chapter, are thoroughlie to be weighed. For thus the Lord speaketh in that place; I spake vnto the prophets,
