The metaphor here used (members of his body) setteth ¹forth the near union which is betwixt Christ and the Saints. Many other metaphors are used in Scripture for the same purpose, as ^afoundation and edifice, ^bvine and branches, ^chusband and wife, with the like, which are all of them very fit, but none more proper and pertinent to the point then this of a body, the Head and members thereof. What nearer union can there be then betwixt the head and members of the same body?
