And as for matter of guilt, so also for matter of punishment. We see in Moses, 1that because the people were many, and he was but one, he entreated God that he might be wiped out of his book, rather then all his people should be destroyed. But especially this point is verified in our Saviour, who, when mankind was utterly insufficient, either to put in sureties, 2or to discharge their debt, did humble himself, to take on him the state of a servant, and abased himself, that he might bring us ⟨p. 56⟩unto glory; and endured a shameful, and painful, and cursed death, that he might bring us unto eternal life.
