of the clocke in the morning caried him to the house of Annas who was one of the chiefe priests About two of the clock they led him from thence to Caiaphas chiefe Priest From three of the clock till 4 which was about cocks crowing Peter denied Christ At the same time Caiaphas and all the Priests of Ierusalem would haue condemned the Lord of Glory the son of God At the same time also the seruants and Officers of the Priests beat him and mocked him About fiue of the clock in the morning Christ was condemned by the whole consent of the Synedrion of the Iewes Luke 22. All these things Christ suffered between Thursday and Friday And whereas the Iewes according to the commandement of God begin their day in the euening therefore that night wherin our Sauiour Christ suffered all these things belonged vnto the 14 day of the moneth Abib So that iust at the same time as the Feast of the Paschal Lambe was celebrated amongst the Iewes Christ the true Lambe of God was made a liuing sacrifice on the Crosse for the sinnes of man Thus as we haue obserued the houres of the night so likewise let vs obserue the houres of the day Friday being the third day of Aprill which as I haue said began the euening before was the fourteenth day of the first moneth Abib or Nisan among the Iewes At six of the clock in the morning about Sunne rising of the same day our Sauiour Iesus Christ was brought vnto Pilat and Iudas Iscariot hanged himselfe because he had betrayed the innocent bloud About seuen of the clock in the same morning our Sauior Christ was carried to Herod Antipas that cruell Tyrant who the yeare before had put Iohn Baptist to death here he was daisdainfully handled At 8 of the clocke our Sauior Christ returned to Pilat who propounded vnto the Iewes because they were to haue a capital offender deliuered vnto them at the feast of the Passouer whether they would haue Iesus their King or Barabas who had beene a murtherer let loose vnto them But they condemned Iesus and chose Barabas which name signifies The sonne of the multitude or a seditious man About 9 of the clock in the morning which the Iews commonly called the third houre of the day because it succeeded the morning and continued till noon our Sauiour Christ was whipt and crowned with thornes About ten of the clock Pontius Pilat in the place called Gabbatha publikely condemned Christ to be crucified and washed his hands in token of innocencie Pontius signifies cruell and inhumane Pilat a man armed with a Roman dart Mart. lib. 10. Ioh. 19. Between ten and 11 our Savior Christ carying his crosse was brought to the place called Golgotha About 11 of the clock the third houre of the morning beeing not yet fully finished our Sauior Christ was fastned vpon the crosse Mark 13. He therefore hung 4 hours vpon the crosse that is from about 11 of the clocke till about three in the afternoon And he spake before that supernatural Eclipse of the Sun three memorable sayings First Father forgiue them for they know not what they doe Luke 19. Secondly he said to his mother Woman behold thy Sonne And to Iohn being conuerted Behold thy mother Thirdly to the Theefe Verily I say vnto thee this day thou shalt be with me in Paradise About twelue of the clock in that meridian which the Iewes call the sixt houre that is the sixt houre from the rising of the Sunne that supernatural Eclipse of the Sunne happened of which you may reade in Dionysius the Areopagite and Eusebius About three of the clock in the afternoone which the Iewes call the ninth houre the Sunne now beginning to receiue his light our Sauiour Christ spake these foure sayings My God my God why hast thou forsaken me Matth. 27. I thirst Ioh. 19. When he had taken the Sponge he said It is finished Ioh. 19. And after crying out with a loud voice he said Father into thy hands I commend my spirit and so died At which time there were many wonderfull miracles wrought as you may read Mat. 27. Mark 15. Luk. 23. Ioh. 19. About foure of clock in the afternoone our blessed Sauiour was pierced through with a Lance and there issued out of his side bloud and water Ioh. 19. About fiue of the clock which the Iews call the eleuenth houre of the day our Sauior Christ was buried by Ioseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus About the sixt houre there fell an eclipse of the Moone which was naturall and not miraculous neither is it obserued by any of the Euangelists Vpon the fifteenth day of the first month which answereth to the 4 of Aprill beeing iustly called the great and holy Sabbath of the Iewes for that Christ this day rested in the Sepulchre the Priests Pharisees being partly ioyful because as they thought the disturber of the common peace one that opposed their authority was dead and partly carefull how they might preuent his resurrection went to Pilat and obtained of him a band of soldiers to watch the sepulchre and to put his seale vpon the stone Vpon the fift day of Aprill early in the morning our Sauiour Christ hauing ouercome death and the diuel by his diuine power raised him self vp from the dead according as he had foretold his disciples and appeared to Mary Magdalen Ioh. 20. and to other women that touched his feet Mat. 28. About noone he appeared to Simon Peter Luk. 24. 1 Cor. 15. In the afternoone hee trauelled with two of his disciples almost 8 miles to the castle of Emaus Luke 24. One of these disciples was Cleopas the brother of Ioseph who brought vp our Sauiour Christ The other as may be gathered by the circumstance of the story was Luke because hee hath set it down so exactly In the euening of the same day he returned inuisibly from Emaus to Ierusalem 8 miles where when the doores were all shut and his disciples were assembled together for feare of the Iewes Iesus came and stood in the midst of them and said Peace be vnto you And he shewed himselfe to all his Disciples except Thomas Mark calleth this the first day of the Sabbath that is of the week Mark 16. Luke 24. Ioh. 20. for the Sabbath of the Iewes as Iosep witnesseth is not onely taken for a day of rest but also for the whole weeke from whence is that saying in the Gospel Iejuniobis in Sabbato i. I fast twice in the weeke Luke 18. Vpon the 12 day of April and eight daies after his resurrection he appeared again to dis disciples Thomas being then present and the dores shut that hee might make euident that his Omnipotencie was not tied to any secondary causes or hindered by the property of any natural bodies which according to S. Austin Ser. 160. was so much the more wonderful because hee appeared vnto them substantially and effectually not as a Phantasma or Shadow which
