Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
In this phrase, A body hast thou prepared me, Christ is brought in speaking to his1 Father. By body is meant the humane nature of Christ. Body is Synecdochically put for the whole humane nature consisting of body and soul. Thus is this word used in this Sacramental phrase, This is my body, Matth. 26. 26. and in sundry other places.

- 1Christs body for his humane nature. See v. 10. Sect. 2•.
The body was the visible part of Christs humane nature: and by the motions thereof it was manifested to be animated with a reasonable soul.
This may be one special reason of setting out Christs humane nature under this word, body.
