Thy salvation.
Thy saluation.
The only Saviour is here called salvation it self: for if he were called a bare Saviour only, then you might likely understand by some other Saviour; but here is ⟨image 34⟩he is called salvation it self, to show that there is no other. For there be more Saviours, but no more salvations, as there be many ways to death, and yet but one death. The brazen Serpent was a figure of Christ, that they which are stung by sin, by fire, and by the Serpent which 1beguiled Eve, may make speed, because there is no remedy but to come to Christ.
The onely Sauiour is heere called saluation it selfe: for if he were called a bare Sauiour only, then you might likely vnderstand by some other Sauiour; but heere is ⟨image 34⟩he is called saluation it selfe, to shew that there is no other. For there be more Sauiours, but no more saluations, as there be many waies to death, and yet but one death. The brasen Serpent was a figure of Christ, that they which are stung by sin, by fire, and by the Serpent which 1beguiled Euah, may make speed, because there is no remedy but to come to Christ.
