But to the intent that no man should draw or refer the dust to ⟨p. 99⟩any other thing, than to the body of man: It followeth moreover in holy Job, that after they (namely the father, the son, & the holy ghost) have with my skin (not with a strange, but with mine own skin) clothed the body, even mine own body, which I now have called dust (& thereby understandeth he the flesh, the sinews & the bones) then shall I see God in my flesh: that is, fully and perfectly shall I be restored & made whole again. For to see God, is nothing else but to be partaker of eternal joy & salvation. And to see god in, or from out of, yt flesh, is to be taken up corporally into everlasting joy. Besides this, ⟨p. 100⟩he doth yet more evidently express the perfectness of the resurrection of the flesh, and faith: Whom I for my self shall see (that is, to my commodity and salvation) mine eyes shall see him, even I my self shall see him, and none other for me. In the which words it is principally to be noted, that he saith, I shall see him, yea even I my self. Then, mine eyes shall see him. Finally, I and else none other. As he would say: even I ye now have true flesh and bone, & look now upon you with mine eyes, shall with the very same eyes behold God also. Therefore in the resurrection of the dead, we shall, with the essential substance & ⟨p. 101⟩nature, be even the same that we were before death: namely we shall have our members, as head, eyes, bones, belly, arms, legs, hands, feet. &c. Now where this distinction is, there must be also circumscription, there must the same have compass and limits. It followeth yet farther in Job: my reins (namely my desire & lust) are wasted away and consumed within me: that is, with in me, namely in my hart, are ceased all other desires, lusts and pleasures, in comparison of this my hope towards the resurrection: yea in comparison thereof, they all are nothing, neither worthy to be esteemed. For in the only ⟨p. 102⟩Resurrection resteth all my hope and delight.
But to the intent that no man shuld draw or referre the dust to ⟨p. 99⟩any other thing, thē to the body of mā: It foloweth moreouer in holy Iob, that after they (namely the father, the son, & the holy gost) haue with my skin (not wt a straunge, but with mine owne skin) clothed the body, euē mine owne body, which I nowe haue called dust (& therby vnderstandeth he the fleshe, the sinowes & the bones) then shall I see God in my flesh: that is, fully and perfectly shall I be restored & made whole again. For to see God, is nothing els but to be partaker of eternall ioy & saluation. And to se god in, or frō out of, yt flesh, is to be taken vp corporally into euerlasting ioy. Besides this, ⟨p. 100⟩he dothe yet more euidently expresse the perfectnesse of the resurrection of the flesh, and faith: Whom I for my selfe shal see (yt is, to my commodity and saluation) mine eies shal see him, euē I my selfe shal se him, and none other for me. In ye which words it is principalli to be noted, that he sayth, I shal se him, yea euē I my selfe. Then, mine eyes shall see him. Finally, I and els none other. As he wold say: euen I ye now haue true flesh and bone, & loke nowe vpon you wyth mine eyes, shall wt the very same eyes beholde God also. Therefore in the resurrection of the deade, we shal, wt the essenciall substance & ⟨p. 101⟩nature, be euen the same that we were before deathe: namely we shal haue our members, as hed, eyes, bones, belly, armes, legs, hands, fete. &c. Now wher this distinction is, there must be also circumscription, there must the same haue compace and limits. It followeth yet farther in Iob: my reines (namely my desire & lust) are wasted away and cōsumed within me: that is, wyth in me, namely in my hart, are ceased all other desires, lustes and pleasures, in comparison of this my hope towards the resurrection: yea in comparison thereof, thei al are nothing, neither worthy to be estemed. For in the only ⟨p. 102⟩Resurrection resteth all my hope and delite.
