First, in reference to comfort, as if he had said, Hast thou some secret comfort besides what we have offered, hast thou consolations of thy own, which cause thee to neglect the consolations of God? As in the Gospel, when the Disciples prayed Christ to eat, he ⟨p. 40⟩told them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of (John 4.31, 32.) Christ had secret bread,1 his work was his food, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me: So here, What? hast thou meat which we know not of? Some hidden Manna beyond what we have told thee of, that thou carest not for our provisions?

- 1Est ne apud te divinum aliquid recenditum in meant tua, prae quo nostras consolationes Divinas contemnis? Merc. Istae quas ab ipso Deo acceptas a ferrimus consolationes leviores sunt quam ut eas probare posses: nimirum quod apud te quidpiam magis reconditum delitescat. Bez. Aut aliquid abscondit eas apud te. Jun. i. e. Ita perstringit oculos animi tui, ut illas non percipias, quai res involucris tectas, Jun. Verba tua prava hoc prohibent Vulg. Apud te potius est incantatio & mendacium etsi prae te veritatem seras. Rab. Abr. [Greek or Hebrew] Occulium malum incantationem vel mendacium denotat.
