The harmony of the divine attributes in the contrivance and accomplishment of man's redemption…

The Apostle offers this to Believers as the ground of comfort, that He who took our nature and felt our griefs intercedes for us.¹ For we have not an ⟨p. 89⟩High-Priest that cannot be touched with the feeling of our Infirmities, ²but was in all things tempted as we are, yet without Sin; that with an humble confidence we may come to the Throne of Grace. He hath drunk deepest of the cup of Sorrows, that he may be an All•sufficient Comforter to those that mourn. He hath such tender Bowels we may trust him to solicit our Salvation. In short, 'Tis the great support of our Faith that we have access to the Father by the Son, ³and present all our requests by a Mediator, so worthy and so dear to Him, and by One who left the Joys of Heaven, that by enduring Affliction on Earth, his heart might be made tuneable to the hearts of the afflicted.
