Now there is one thing more that is as an Appendix unto the Burden of the Law, flows indeed from, and is tied unto the burden of the Law, and that is, the burden of Legal performances, not only the burden of the Law in regard of what the Law requires, the perfect obedience that the Law requires, that burden comes from the Law it self, but now there is a burden ⟨p. 51⟩that many are under, a very heavy and grievous burden, and that is, the burden of Legal performances, and this is that that is to be the subject of this Chapter. I intend to go no further then to speak of that burden to open it a little to you, and that as I told you at the first opening of the text is the interpretation of Chrysostom upon this text, You that are weary and heavy Laden, that is you that are laden with the burden of seeking righteousness under the Law. Come unto me and I will give you Rest.
