12. Amazement, and he began to be sore amazed, Mar. 14 33. which signifieth an universal cessation of all the faculties of the soul from their several functions, Physicians call it an Horripilation, we usually a Consternation; Like a clock in kelter, yet stopped for the while from going, by some hand laid upon it. That such intermission of the operations of the soul, the effect of this formidable concussion, might be without sin, is evident to him that remembers Christ slept, Sleep ordinarily implying a cessation of the exercise of the intellectual faculties for the time.

13. Expavefaction. He began not merely to be amazed but also to be very heavy, the word notes expavefaction, which was such a motion of his mind superadded unto his Consternation: whereby for the time he was disenabled, as concerning the minding of any thing else, being wholly taken up with the dreadful sense of the righteous wrath of God; as the eye intensely fixed upon some object, taketh no notice of any other object before it for the while.
