His name and honour suffered the vilest indignities, blasphemies, and horrid reproaches that the malignity of Satan, and wicked men could belch our against it. He was called a Blasphemer, Seditions, one that had a Devil, a Glutton• a Wine-bibber, a friend of Publicans and Harlots. The Carpenters Son, this fellow. He that was Gods Fellow as you heard lately, now this Fellow. Contempt ⟨p. 388⟩was poured upon all his Offices. Upon his Kingly Office, when they crowned him with Thorns, arrayed him in purple, bowed the knee in mockery to him, and cried hail King of the Jews. His Prophetical Office, when they blinded him, and then bid him Prophesy who smote him. His Priestly Office, when they reviled him upon the Cross, saying, he saved others, himself he cannot save. They scourged him. Spit in his face. Smote him on the head and face. Besides the very kind of death they put him to was reproachful and ignominious; as you heard before.
