And this punishment Christ could not have born except by Law he had obliged himself as our surety to pay our debts, Heb. 10.4.5. ⟨p. 246⟩6.7.8. and 7.22. Now that in all his life and sufferings he did no violence, committed no sin, nor touched any contagion of sin in his own person is evident, because he was holy▪ harmless, undefiled, and separated from sinners, Heb. 7.26. Heb. 4.15. Isa. 53.9.
