Jesus went from thence: But whither went he? The text says, [He departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.] How so? Our Lord & Saviour Christ, commanded his Disciples, that they should not go into the way of the Gentiles; but (says he) Go and preach to the lost sheep of the house of Israel, 1but go not into the way of the Gentiles. Will Christ forbid his Disciples and Apostles to go into the way of the Gentiles, and will he himself go into the way of the Gentiles, go into Tyre and Sidon, how can this be? Some answer it thus: That the Law-giver was not bound unto the Law that he made himself. Others answer it thus: That our Lord and Saviour did not go unto Tyre and Sidon for to preach, but he went thither to be hid. As in the 7. of Mark, (where ye have the same story) From thence he arose and went to Tyre and Sidon, and entered into an house, and would have no man know it. In this respect now, he did not forbid his Disciples to go into the way of the Gentiles.
