An abridgement of the Institution of Christian religion written

15 Wherefore it is added immediately, that he ⟨p. 131⟩sitteth at the right hand of the father: which is spoken §1 2by the way of similitude taken from princes,¹ which have their sitters by, to whom they commit their office of governing & commanding. So Christ in whom the father will be exalted, & by whose hand he will reign, is said to be received to his right hand, as if he should be said to have been installed in the kingdom of heaven and earth,² to have taken solemn possession of the government committed to him, and to continue in the same until he come to judgement.*

15 Wherefore it is added immediatlie, that hee ⟨p. 131⟩sitteth at the right hand of the father: which is spoken §1 2by the way of similitude taken from princes,¹ which haue their sitters by, to whom they commit their office of gouerning & cōmanding. So Christ in whō the father will be exalted, & by whose hand he wil raign, is said to be receiued to his right hand, as if hee should be said to haue been installed in the kingdome of heauen and earth,² to haue taken solemne possession of the gouernment committed to him, and to continue in the same vntill hee come to iudgement.*
