Neither is that exception any thing, that Christ after he was risen came in to his disciples ⟨p. 396⟩the doors being shut. For it was not therefore either made unvisible or uncircumscribed or unpalpable: seeing Christ being come in and seen of his disciples, presently said, Feel or handle and see, 1for a spirit hath not flesh and bones as ye see me have. And therefore (as the Fathers teach) there was no change made of Christs body, no more then there was, when he, or Peter, walked upon the waters; but by the omnipotency of his deity having power over all things, the doors gave place to the true and firm body of the son of God.
