§. 18. Of Christ the Creator of the worlds.
The Apostle goeth on in setting out the dignity of Christ; and to that excellency which appertained to him as Mediator betwixt God and man, he addeth a greater, being proper to him as he is God Almighty, in these words, By whom also he made the worlds.

Though this word *Made, be a common work attributed in other places to mens works as well as to Gods; yet in this place it is taken for that divine work which is proper to God alone (create) as Acts 14. 15. and 17. 24. So as it pointeth at that first great work of God, which is mentioned Gen. 1. 1.
