The word in the Original sometimes is taken for Abundance, 1The Earth is the Lords, and the fullness thereof: So here it is not taken; here it is too narrow: for there is not only Plenitudo abundantiae, but, Plenitudo redundantiae; not only a fullness of Abundance, but a fullness of Redundancy; an over flowing of fullness in Jesus Christ.
