21. In matter of sense there was. First, shameful apprehending. Secondly, a violent taking away: in just judgements, both Ecclesiastical, and civill. Fourthly, in working, whipping, and crucifying, with reproaches, and injuries of all kinds joined with them. Yet there was some mitigation of this death. First, by manifestation of the Divine Majesty, to the working of certain miracles: as in casting the Soldiers down to the ground with his sight and voice, and in healing the ear of Malchus. Secondly, by operation of the Divine providence, whereby it came to pass, that he was justified by the Judge, before he was condemned. Mat. 29. 24. I am innocent of the blood of this just man.
