Christs temptation and transfiguration practically explained and improved in several sermons /

2. More Particularly explained, by the change of his face and Raiment. The form of any ⟨p. 30⟩man is most seen in his Face, there was a glorious shining brightness, Luke saith the fashion of his countenance was altered, Matthew that his Face did shine as the Sun. And in the glorious description of God in the Prophet Habakkuk, it is said chap. 3. 2. And his brightness was as the light. For his Garments, Luke saith his Raiment was white and glistering, Mark chap. 9. 3. White as the Snow, so as no Fuller on Earth could whiten them, but Matthew white as the light, which carrieth it higher, the works of Nature exceed those of Art. The Transfiguration that was plainly to be seen in his Face was accomplished also in other parts of his body, all his body was clothed with Majesty, so as it could not be obscured and hidden by his Garments.

Now First I shall speak of the circumstance of Time, and then of the Transfiguration it self.
