2. We may consider the Arguments, whence it is evident that he neither was nor could be a Surety unto us for God, but was so for us unto God. For,
1. [Greek or Hebrew] or [Greek or Hebrew], a Surety, is one that undertaketh for another wherein he is defective really or in Reputation. Whatever that undertaking be, whether in Words of Promise, or in depositing of real security in the hands of an Arbitrator, or by any other Personal engagement of Life and Body, it respects the defect of the Person for whom any one becomes a Surety. Such an one is sponsor or fidejussor in all good Authors and common use of speech. And if any one be of absolute credit himself, and of a Reputation every way unquestionable, there is no need of a Surety, unless in case of Mortality. The words of a Surety in the behalf of another whose Ability or Reputation is dubious, are, ad me recipio, faciet aut faciam. And when [Greek or Hebrew] is taken Adjectively as sometimes it is, it signifies him who is satisdationibus obnoxius; liable to payments for others that are non-solvent.
