2. So in those Phrases where the denial of the Affirmative is subjoined, where nevertheless the Denial is rather to be understood comparatively, or respectively, as Joh. 16.32.1 Ye — shall leave me alone; the Epanorthosis, the Figure we speak of, follows, and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me: Christ was alone, with respect to Men, but not with respect to God. 1 Cor. 7.10.2 But to the married I command, — the Correction follows, Yet not I, but the Lord. Both commanded, the Lord principally, as the Sovereign Law-giver, and Paul, as his Servant and Minister. 1 Cor. 15.10.3 I laboured more abundantly than they all; the Apostle subjoins a Correction, lest it should savour of Arrogancy, in ascribing that to himself, which was the work God,— yet not I, but the Grace of God, which was with me. He was set on work by Divine Grace, which was the primary Cause of all his Labour and Success. Gal. 2.20.4 I live, yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: he speaks of Spiritual Life, which he attributes not to himself, but to Christ the Prince of Life, as the supreme Author and Cause of it: see Gal. 1.6. &c. Prov. 6.16. Rom. 8.34. Gal. 4.9. 2 Tim. 4.8.
