The Explication.
1. I say, A Satisfaction, so far as may be attained upon the Creature that hath sinned, and which is to be the Subject of this Punishment. I put this in, because otherwise it must be affirmed of Christ alone, that he gave full satisfaction unto God's Justice, in whom there was [Greek or Hebrew], a Manifestation or 1Demonstration of God's Justice for Sins that were past: yet still, as although a full Satisfaction can never be had from or upon the Creature, (therefore in Hell they always suffer) yet God doth recover what can be had, and payeth himself out of them as far as it will go; as those Phrases, Paying the utmost farthing, Mat. 5. 26. and, Selling them and all they had, to make Money thereof, Mat. 18. 25. do show.
