This is Abraham, of whom God saith, now I know thou fearest (lovest) me, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me. How then with admiration, and adoration, may we say to God, now we know thou lovest us, in that thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son. Isaac was but a shadow (and the offering up of Isaac but a shadow of the offering •p) of the Son of God. Oh what a •ove-token is this! herein is the ••ve of God manifested; in this •od commendeth his love, God […] love the world, that he gave •s Son, and that to death, that his ⟨p. 100⟩Son might give life to us. Was ever love like thine! That thou wouldst part with a Son, such a Son, so precious in himself, so precious in thine eyes, who was thy Sabbath, thy rest, in whom thou wert well pleased, for sinners, for enemies, who did wickedly even as they could. Ah, Lord, never was there love like thine.
