§. 106. Of Christs Throne.
The manner of setting out Christs dignity is very elegant and emphatical. It is1 by a rhetorical Apostrophe, Thy Throne, O God: It imports a joyful congratulation of Christs glory and dignity; For this Relative THY, hath reference to the Son, mentioned in the beginning of the verse. An Apostrophe when it is used in commendation of a person addeth much emphasis, and putteth life into the Speech. It doth in a manner single out the person to whom it is declared to be observed of all; As here it is applied to Christ it further shows, that Christs excellencies ⟨p. 72⟩may be spoken of to himself even face to face, for they are his due, and there is no fear of vain-glory in him, Rev. 4. 10, 11. See 125. in the end.
