it was shewed that of the Tribe of Judah should Shiloh come but whether Male or Female nothing certain David was assured that a Son of his should sit upon his Throne for ever But till Isaias it was not known that he should be born of a pure Virgin that a woman should compass a man Isa. 7. 14. Behold a Virgin that famous Virgin the Originall sets it forth with an Accent spoken of Gen. 3. 15. shall conceive and bear a Son The very place of his Birth was not set forth till Micha did it Mich. 5. 2. Not the just time till Daniel foretold it Dan. 9. 24. Thus by degrees and piece-meal as it were God spake of old to the Fathers by his servants the Prophets Heb. 1. 1. Every age almost brought sorth some new thing touching the Babe of Bethlehem lapt up in the swathbands of the Holy Scriptures either in express and evident terms and testimonies or else in mirrors and miracles Lastly John Baptist Fibula Legis Gratiae as one calls him the Buckler of the Law and Gospel pointed him out with his finger Behold the Lamb of God c. Now this Jesus Christ is the most excellent Person in the world the fairest amongst men worth ten thousand of us as the People said of David 2 Sam. 18. 3. Look upon him as he is described Heb. 1. 1 2 3. For his Nobility He is Gods own Son For his Riches He is heir of all things For his Wisdom He made the Worlds For his Eminency He is the brightness of his Fathers Glory and the express Image of his Person For his might He upholdeth all things by the Word of his Power For his Merits He hath by himself purged our sins For his Preferment He sate down at the right hand of the Majesty on High Traps Treas The quallity and kind of Christs Death is remarkeable for three Characters which were engraven on the Death of the Cross which he died 1. For the painfulness of it The nature of that Death was painfull For Death it self is painfull no man payes that debt with ease When Asa dies he cryes Ah my feet When David dyes he complains O my cold Body When the Shunamites Child dyes he cryes Ah my pained head When ●zzah dyes he cryes Oh my Leprous skin Life is a precious Pearl But there are three things besides which made Christs Death painfull 1. Violence It 's painfull to die of any violent disease but when five deaths do all concur and strive which of them shall dispatch the poor man soonest this must needs be more painfull Such was Christs Death which made him complain Psal. 22. 16. They pierced my hands and my feet and Joh. 19. 34. One of the Souldiers with a Spear pierced his side and forthwith there came out blood and water Here are five Deaths that invaded a living man Death on each hand and on each legg and death on his side though this last came a little too late Now a violent Death it must needs be when strong and great nails did pierce the most nervous parts of his Body his hands and his feet 2. Slowness Four leasurely violent Deaths seized on him Blood is the life of the living Creature then look how long his blood was coming out his Life was dropping out as long It 's a great aggravation for a man to be long a dying and yet cannot die To have his torment quick and yet his Death slow is an Image of Hell where men seek Death and yet cannot finde it Christs slow Death was divided into four quarters Death at each hand and at each foot made his pain the greater The weight of his Body did hang upon those four tormenting nails his pierced Hands and Feet as if Death had delighted to hold Christ long at sea and to deny him it's last sad service Christ had been before dying a terrible Death in the Garden when he was boiled as it were in a bloody sweat and two circumstances shew that the two Thieves Death was nothing in slowness of torment comparable to Christs death 1. The sad and direful preparatories to Christs Death as he was the night before in a Soul-death when those 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 as it were Drops or great hail stones of blood frozen or hardened together as Stephanus thinks through extream terrour when he was scourged and Crowned with Thorns 2. He was so weakned in Body thereby that he was not able to bear his own Cross which made him complain Psal. 22. 17. I may tell all my Bones My strength is dried up like a Potsheard So that Christ began to die the night before and continued dying twenty four hours the Lords anger and curse being on him and then bodily pain with the curse of the Law all this time wrought upon him And Christ in bearing the pains of the second Death did suffer that which all the Elect should have sustained in their Souls for ever Isa. 53. 6. The Lord laid upon him the iniquity of us all and though Christ died but one Death for all the Elect yet in the extremity of the pain it was many Deaths to him 3. Many degrees of Life were taken from him Consider how much of Life Christ had and the removing of it by violence must be so much the more painfull Now life natural had in Christ a sweet and a peaceable dwelling the possession of life was with excellent delights It was planted besides the Glorious God-head personally and so had sweet company and that made it pleasant It had not been so much to take away the Life of a common man whose life is not priviledged with Grace and the Grace of a Personal union with God The second Character that was engraven on Christs Death was that it was shameful and reproachful Now Shame is first Fundamentally in the cause Sin and Sin acted by men against that Law of God is the onely foundation of Shame Exod. 32. 25. Aaron made the People naked to their Shame So 2 Sam. 13. 13. Shame and sin are neer a kin And thus Christ was no more capable of Shame than he was of sin He came out of the Womb clothed with the white Robe of Innocency and he never contracted one black spot on that fair Robe of the highest Image of God from the womb to the Grave and therefore there was no shame fundamentally in Christ. 2. There is Shame formally in sin and that first In being ashamed Actively Secondly In bearing of Shame Passively In the former consideration because sin is a shameful thing in itself Jer. 11. 13. There is an Internal blushing and Shame rising from sin the Conscience of the sinner if it be not cauterized thinking ill of sin and esteeming it self base in doing it Rom. 6. 21. What fruit had you in those things whereof you are now ashamed So Christ thought ill of sin and esteemed the Creature base in sinning 2. Christ our Lord

because they did not walk after the tradition of the Elders to whom Jesus answered concerning traditions that they frustrated the commands of God that they might keep the traditions of men and he taught the People which he also expounded to his Disciples at home that nothing which enters into a man but that which cometh from within that defileth a man Mark 7. 1 23. Matth. 15 1 20. Then he arose from thence and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon and he could not be hid For a Canaanitish woman a Gentile a Syrophaenician by Nation came to him earnestly beseeching him for her Daughter that was vexed with a Devil whom when he had commended for the greatness of her Faith he cast the Divel out of her Daughter Mark 7. 24 30. Matth. 15. 21 28. And again departing from the Coasts of Tyre and Sidon he came unto the Sea of Galilee through the midst of the coast of Decapolis and they brought unto him one that was deaf and had an impediment in his speech whom he healed and charged him that he should tell no man but all in vain Mark 7. 31 37. Then went he up into a mountain and sate there and healed many so that the multitude wondred Matth. 15. 29 30 31. In those days when there was a very great multitude that had remained with him three days he fed four thousand men besides women and children with seven Loaves and a few little fishes and there remained seven baskets full of fragments Mark 8. 1 9. Matth. 15. 32 38. And straitway Jesus entred into a Ship with his Disciples and came into the parts of Dalmanutha or the coasts of Magdala Mark 8. 10. Matth. 15. 39. And the Pharisees came to him requiring a sign from Heaven who after he had deeply sighed he denied any sign but that of Jonas to those Hypocrites who knew how to discern the face of the sky but not the signs of the times and leaving them he entred again into a Ship and passed to the other side Mark 8. 11. 12 13. Matth. 16. 1 4. And when his Disciples were come to the other side they had forgotten to take bread and they had but one loaf with them in the Ship Then Jesus said unto them Take heed of the Leaven of the Pharisees and Sadduces and of the Leaven of Herod they reasoned amongst themselves because they had forgotten to take bread But Jesus rebuking them that they had forgotten the miraculous multiplication of the loaves gave them to understand that he spake not of the Leaven of Bread but of their Doctrine Mark 8. 14 21. Matth. 16. 5. 21. Then came Jesus to Bethsaida and they brought to him a blind man whom he led out of the Town and anointed his eyes with spittle and he recovered his sight and Jesus forbad him to tell it Mark 8. 22 26. And Jesus went with his Disciples into the Towns of Caesarea Philippi And it came to pass as he was alone praying and was now in the way that he asked his Disciples whom do men say that I am When they had answered he said unto them But whom do ye say that I am And when Peter had answered he pronounced him happy annexing promises and forbad his Disciples to tell any man that he was the Christ. He also foretold his Death and Resurrection and called Peter Satan because he rebuked him for so saying Then he Preached to his Disciples and to the multitude of the Cross which every one must bear that would follow him and at length foretold his Transfiguration Luke 7. 18 27. Mark 8. 27 38. Matth. 16. 13 28. And it came to pass about eight days after these things or six intermediate days that he was Transfigured in an high Mountain And when they came down from the Mountain he charged them that they should tell no man what they had seen till he was risen from the dead and they kept it close questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean and they asked him why do the Scribes say that Elias must first come and they received an answer by which they understood that Jesus spake of John Baptist as that Elias Luke 7. 28 36. Mark 9. 1 13. Matth. 17. 1 13. And it came to pass the next day when they were come down from the Hill and that he was come to his Disciples he saw a great multitude about them and the Scribes questioning with them and straitway when all the multitude saw him they were greatly amazed and runing to him saluted him and as he was asking about their questioning with his Disciples the Father of a Lunatick child answered him that it was about his child that had an unclean spirit both deaf and dumb and that his Disciples could not cast him out Then Jesus having cast out the spirit restored the Child to his Father whole and being at home he shewed his Disciples the reason why they could not cast out this Devil Luke 7. 37 42. Mark 9. 14 29. Matth. 17. 14 21. And they departed thence and passed through Galilee and he would not that any man should know it and he taught his Disciples concerning his death and Resurrection but they understood not that saying and being exceedingly sorry were afraid to ask him Luke 7. 43 44 45. Mark 9. 30 31 32. Matth. 17. 22 23. When they were come to Capernaum they asked Peter about Jesus his paying Tribute money And when Jesus was come into the house he prevented Peter telling him that he should find a piece of money in a Fishes mouth and bad him pay that for Tribute both for himself and for Jesus Matth. 17. 24 27. At Capernaum Jesus asked his Disciples what it was that they disputed of among themselves by the way at which when they were silent at the first they afterwards told him that it was who should be greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven Then Jesus taking a child and seting him in the midst taught them that they should have humility even as a child He also warned the world of offences Admonishing us to take heed that neither hand foot nor eye make us to offend That little ones are not to be despised How our Brother sinning against us is to be reproved as also to be bound and loosed by the Church and to be forgiven to seventy times seven times as he shewed in that parable of the two debtors to the King Luke 7. 46 47 48. Mark 9. 33 37. Matth. 18. 1 35. Then said John to him we saw one calling out Divels through thy name whom Jesus taught that he was not to be forbidden and again warned them not to offend little ones and to take heed again that neither hand foot nor eye cause them to offend Luke 7. 49 50. Mark 9 ●8 50. After these things Jesus walked in Galilee for he would not walk in Jury because the

being our surety though he could not be ashamed of any sin he did himself Yet being made a sin for us he did bear the shame of our sin and thus he was not free from shame passively as it 's a punishment of sin Isa. 50. 6. I gave my back to the smiters and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair I hid not my face from shame and spitting Heb. 12. 2. He endured the Cross despising the shame So then in these respects Christ did bear our Shame 1. In that though he was the Lord of Glory and thought it no robbery to be equal with the Father yet he abased himself to become man yea the lowest of men a Servant Phil. 2. 6 7 8. Matth. 20. 28. Isa. 49. 7. 2. All the tokens of reproach and shame were on his sufferings As 1. In Gestures they put a Crown of Thorns on his head and a Reed for a Scepter in his hand to mock his Kingly Power They saluted him with mocks and bowing the knee to him 2. In words They cried out Hail King of the Jews They scorned his Prophetical dignity when they blindfolded him saying Prophesie who it is that smote thee And to deride his Priesthood they put a Robe on him and when he was on the Cross offering himself as our Priest in a Sacrifice to God all that passed by wagged their Heads and shot out their Lips saying He trusted in God let him deliver him c. Then did they spit in his face which in the Law was a great shame Deut. 25. 9 50. Job 30. 10. 3. His Death was shameful the Death of a thief and robber So it 's called Christs reproach Heb. 13. 13. Let us go forth bearing his reproach It was a shameful thing to see the Lord of Glory bearing his own Cross on his back and all the children and base ones of the City wondring at him and crying out upon him This is called the reproach or Shame of Christ. Heb. 11. 26. Psal. 22. 7. 4. They shamed him in pulling off his Garments and scourging him As Jer. 13. 26. They brought him bound to Pilate as if he had been a Common Thief Matth. 26. 2. Hence Isa. 53. 3. He was despised and rejected of men and we hid as it were our faces from him He had all shame put upon him He was branded as the greatest Thief of the three He went out at the Gate of life bleeding pained cursed shamed forsaken despised and mocked Even the Sun seemed to be ashamed to see its Creator in so painful and shameful a condition and therefore hid its head The third Character which was engraven on Christs Death was the curse of God Now the Curse that Christ was made Was 1. The Lords pronouncing him a Curse Deut. 21. 23. Cursed is he that hangeth on a Tree which Paul applies to Christ. Gal. 3. 10 13. This indeed was a Ceremonial curse but had a special Relation to Christ who was under a real and Moral Curse 2. Gods devoting and setting him apart in his eternal Counsel for suffering the punishment of sin 3. The dishonour that was put upon him and so was Christ under a curse Psal. 22. 7. He was a worm and no man Isa. 53. 3. The least of men the contempt and refuse of men Act. 4. 11. The Stone rejected by the builders Hanging is the death of the poorest and basest of men and thus was Christ used Act. 5. 30. Whom ye slew and hanged on a Tree Act. 2. 23. Whom by wicked hands ye have Crucified and slain Hanging is more then slaying It 's putting him to a base Death that is cursed of God and man and this to be inflicted on a King lineally descended of the Blood Royal the Kingly Tribe of Judah the onely man on Earth that by birth and Law had Title to the Crown of Judea was the worst that men or Devils could do Triuni Deo Gloria To the Reader THere is lately published by Mr Sam.
