This word [Greek or Hebrew], Reconciliation, Notes and implies; that there was a formal breach between God, and us: we cannot understand what it is to be Reconciled, except we do beforehand know somewhat about the ⟨p. 3⟩Breach which this Reconciliation must make up. It doth imply an enmity that there was between man and God; for if two be reconciled, then certainly, it implies, that once there was an enmity between them. Conciliari is to bring into favour, but Reconciliari, is to bring into favour again those that have bin in favour before, and between whom there hath been a Breach; therefore to bring into fever again; is in plain terms, Reconciliation. And in the opening of this doctrine therefore, there are these particulars that plainly lie before us in the Text; for I will go no further in the opening of the Doctrine of Reconciliation but merely to that which you have lying obviously, and plainly before you in the words. In which you have these Particulars.
