Why then was his blessed body broken? Answ. It was for our sins^*. Isa. 53. 6. But he was wounded for our transgressions. The Hebrew word for wounded^*, hath a double Emphasis; ⟨p. 13⟩either it may signify that he was pierced through as with a dart^*; or that he was profaned^*. He was used as some common vile thing; and Christ might thank us for it, He was wounded for our transgressions^*. So that, if the question were put to us, as was once to Christ, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee? Luk. 22. 64. We might soon answer, It was our sins that smote him^*. Our pride made Christ wear a Crown of Thorns; as Zipporah said to Moses, Exod. 4. 25. A bloody husband art thou to me: so may Christ say to his Church, A bloody Spouse thou hast been to me; thou hast cost me my heart-blood.
