§. 138. Of the manner of setting out Christs Immutability.
Both the Psalmist and the Apostle turn from the creatures to the Creator the Lord Christ; and by continuing the Apostrophe (whereof See §. 106. 127.) direct their speech to him, saying, Thou remainest. This they do by way of opposition,1 as this particle BUT, showeth, intimating thereby that Christ in that which is here truly spoken of him, excelleth all creatures, See §. 141. This is further manifest by the express mention of the Pronoun THOU.2
