The cause of the spiritual, because the Apostle saith to the Rom. 4. he rose again for our justification; and an example, because he saith, 1we are bur•ed together with him by baptism, into his death, that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father: so we also should uwalke in newness of life.
