The divine Nature in Christ, to which the humane nature was personally united, 1was that Spirit of Holiness, by which the Lord Jesus did rise Triumphantly from the dead. In the same language, speaks another Apostle; he was put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit, i.e. by the Divine essence which was in Christ. Death and the Grave had swallowed a morsel, which they could not keep: but as the Whale, when it had swallowed Jonah (in this, the Type of Christ) was forced to vomit him up again, 2it being impossible Christ should be holden by death: The power of the word incarnate, loosed or dissolved the bonds of Death, as a thread of Tow is ⟨p. 13⟩broken, when it is touched with the fire. Yea (Sampson-like, herein also another type of his) Jesus Christ did break in sunder the bars of the Grave, and carried away the Gates of death upon his shoulders, making a show of them openly.
