First, Christ's undertaking the Work of our Redemption: it was very well pleasing unto his Father, that poor ⟨p. 73⟩lost und o•e sinners should be brought back again unto God, and restored unto his love and favour: I say, the Father was infinitely well-pleased with Christ in this undertaking, Isa. 53. 10. The pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand; the pleasure of the Lord, that is, the Work of our Redemption; wherein God the Father took great pleasure or delight; therefore when Christ was publicly in •he eye of the world to enter upon this great Work, the Father sends him out with this witness, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased. He speaks not only of his well-pleasing to his Person, but also to his well-pleasing as to his Undertaking.
