And the Goat did bear upon §22him all their iniquities, &c. What is the meaning of this? Surely Jesus Christ, upon 1whom ou• sins were laid, and who alone died for the ungodly, and bare our burdens away. Therefore the Believer in the sense of guilt should run unto Christ, and offer up his blood unto the Father, and say, Lord, it is true, I owe thee so much, yet Father forgive me, remember that thine own Son was my ransom, his blood was the price, he was my surety, and undertook to answer for my sins; I beseech thee accept of his atonement, for he is my Surety, my Redemption; Thou must be satisfied, but Christ hath satisfied thee, not for himself, what sins had he of his own? but for ⟨p. 242⟩me, (gracious Father) they were my debts which he satisfied for; and look over thy book, and thou shalt find it so, for thou hast said, He was made sin f•r us, and that he was wounded for our transgressions.
