A supplement to the several discourses upon various divine subjects

Christ therefore bore our infirmities, our natural penal infirmities, though not our natural sinful ones, unless morally, i. e. by suffering for them; he bore the infirmity of our Nature, though not our personal infirmities. He endured pain, and grief, and death, and greater than we can endure; but he did not bear every particular pain and disease which ariseth from sin, and a particular cause; yet by satisfying the Justice of God, which required death, he satisfied for all other pains which were parts of the Curse, though he did not formally feel them; so that no longer they remain as a Curse, no more than death it self is a Curse to a Believer. Now, as Christ by his death upon the Cross did remove the sting of death from every Believer, and sanctify it, though he did not die every kind of death which a man may die; so by enduring pain and grief, and being a man of sorrows, he took away the sting of all those pains, which are fruits of the Curse, though they were of a different kind from those he hath himself endured. This I have added to prevent an Objection that may be made, that Christ endured not this particular pain, and therefore the Curse is not taken away.
