The Explication.
IT behooved our Mediator to be 1. man, 2. and indeed very man, 3. and that man also perfectly just.
IT behooved our Mediatour to be 1. man, 2. and indeed very man, 3. and that man also perfectly just.
IHe ought to be Man, 1. Because it was man that sinned; therefore man must make recompense. As by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin, and so death, &c. Sith by man came death, by man also came the resurrection of the dead. 2. That he might suffer death: for he ought to make satisfaction for us by dying and shedding his blood;2 because it was said, Thou shalt die the death. Without shedding of blood is no remission.
