XXXIV. Christ was exalted after he had humbled himself. His purging sin implieth his humbling of himself unto death. When he had done this, then he sate, &c. This implieth his exaltation, Luk 24. 26, 46. Phil. 2. 8, 9.
XXXIV. Christ was exalted after he had humbled himself. His purging sinne implieth his humbling of himself unto death. When he had done this, then he sate, &c. This implieth his exaltation, Luk 24. 26, 46. Phil. 2. 8, 9.
XXXV. Christ having finished his sufferings, ceased to suffer any more. He sate down and rested, Rom. 6. 9, 10. As God when he had finished all the works of Creation, rested (Gen. 2. 2. Heb. 4. 10.) so Christ after his sufferings.
XXXVI. Christ as our Priest ever presents himself before God for us, namely to make intercession for us. Christs sitting implieth abode. This abode being at Gods right hand, is before God, even in his sight. This is he that purged our sins: therefore he is there as our Priest, and to make intercession for us. And because there is no limitation of his sitting or abode, it is to be taken for a perpetual act. All these are plainly expressed in other places: as Chap. 9. 24. and 10. 12.
