ISAI. LIII.VII. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted; yet he opened not his mouth. He is brought as a Lamb to the slaughter, and as a Sheep before her Shearers is dumb; so he opened not his mouth.
HOW our Lord Jesus Christ carried on the work of our Redemption in his humbled state, both in his incarnation, life and death, hath in part been discovered in the former Sermons. I have showed you the kind or nature of that death he died: and am now engaged by the method proposed, to open the manner of his death. The solitariness or loneliness of Christ in his sufferings, was the subject of the last Sermon. The patience and meekness of Christ in his sufferings, comes in order to be opened in this.
