It was the solemn Acquittance of our Surety from the Sins imputed to him, and a Token of the Acceptation of his Purchase; when Christ rose again from the Dead, our Surety was let out of Prison, Isa. 53. 8. And it is a Ground of Confidence to us: for when the Debtor sees the Surety walk abroad, he may be sure the Debt is satisfied. Therefore it is said, Rom. 4. 25. Who was delivered for our Offences, and raised again for our Justification. Christ is sometimes said to rise from the Dead, and sometimes to be raised from the Dead. His taking up his Life again argued his Divine Power; but as Man, he was raised. So it is said, Heb. 13. 20. The God of Peace, who brought again from the Dead our Lord Jesus Christ. God the Father brought him again from the Dead, as an Evidence of full Satisfaction. Our Surety did not break Prison, but was solemnly brought forth. The Disciples said, Acts 16. 37, 38, 39. Let them come themselves, and fetch us. An Angel was sent from Heaven, to roll away the Stone, to show that Christ had a solemn Release and Discharge.
