But one and the same cannot be, truly the raiser and the raised from the dead, unless he consist of divers natures, of the divine, according to which he doth raise, and the humane, according to which, he is raised. Therefore the same Christ, as he is true God coessential with the father, so he is true man, coessential with his mother and his brethren.
But one and the same cannot be, truely the raiser and the raised from the dead, vnlesse he consist of diuers natures, of the diuine, according to which he doth raise, and the humane, according to which, he is raised. Therefore the same Christ, as he is true God coessentiall with the father, so hee is true man, coessentiall with his mother and his brethren.

Neither can any be truly said to be raised ⟨p. 392⟩and to rise from the dead, unless the same be truly said to be dead and to have died. But death consisteth in a true separation of the soul from the body, whereby the body which dieth may presently be rightly called a dead carcass. Christ then if he truly rose from the dead, it can by no means be denied, but that he also truly died, his soul being truly separated from his body.
