That our Apostle here, doth not start any new doctrine of his own, or (as ^*somewhere he doth) deliver his own judgment as an holy knowing man, and not as one infallibly inspired from above; but he doth expound Christ unto us, and gives us the sense of His words, who was both the Truth and the Resurrection.
