of_o death_n as_o the_o author_n infer_v it_o in_o the_o verse_n next_o follow_v that_o through_o death_n he_o may_v destroy_v the_o devil_n the_o final_a cause_n to_o what_o end_n christ_n do_v

his_o person_n for_o the_o devil_n by_o his_o person_n be_v a_o angel_n and_o therefore_o by_o nature_n indestructible_a incorruptible_a and_o immortal_a but_o christ_n by_o his_o death_n destroy_v the_o devil_n for_o his_o power_n he_o abolish_v and_o abrogate_v the_o kingdom_n and_o power_n that_o satan_n have_v in_o the_o world_n particular_o his_o power_n of_o death_n and_o therefore_o he_o

26.18_o and_o col._n 1.13_o and_o it_o be_v by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n that_o satan_n be_v say_v to_o be_v devest_v and_o spoil_v of_o all_o his_o dominion_n and_o power_n see_v john_n 12.31,33_o and_o col._n 2.15_o now_o the_o reason_n why_o christ_n destroy_v the_o deadly_a power_n of_o satan_n by_o his_o death_n be_v because_o christ_n by_o his_o death_n have_v obtain_v the_o

of_o abraham_n in_o two_o respect_n 1._o because_o we_o often_o read_v in_o scripture_n that_o christ_n be_v promise_v to_o no_o other_o man_n proper_o but_o to_o the_o posterity_n of_o abraham_n or_o

in_o the_o former_a clause_n of_o this_o verse_n the_o author_n prove_v the_o negative_a that_o christ_n be_v not_o make_v a_o angel_n because_o he_o be_v not_o to_o take_v hold_n of_o they_o to_o

so_o the_o word_n show_v not_o what_o christ_n be_v by_o his_o birth_n but_o what_o he_o do_v by_o his_o death_n hence_o now_o it_o plain_o appear_v how_o incongruous_o these_o word_n be_v wrest_v
