§. 116. Of Christs hatred of iniquity.
TO Christs love of righteousness is added his hatred of iniquity, because these two are contrary one to another; Men use to be contrarily affected to contrary objects; Vain intentions and Gods Law are directly contrary one to another: Thereupon saith the Psalmist, I hate vain thoughts, but thy Law do I love, Psa. 119. 113. We are commanded to hate the evil and love the good, Amos 5. 5.
