The First Sermon.
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me.
THIS is a Text Jesus Christ himself preached upon at Nazareth, which was the Place of His Education. It is taken from Isai. 61.1, 2. where there is but little Variation as to the ⟨p. 33⟩Words, but a great agreement as to the Intendment of them. The Sermon that Christ preached is not upon Record; but we have the Preface, V. 21. This Day is this Scripture fulfilled in your Ears, which gives us some Light, and shows us that the Prophecy doth relate unto himself. In these Words is a Prediction of the Spirit's coming upon Him.
