the Athenians whā they heard of the holy Apostle the resurrection of the dead thei mocked and laughed his doctrin to scorne For who wold lightly credite that the bodies which nowe are corrupt returned to earthe o● otherwise torne and deuoured o● wild beastes foules yea sonn● time brēt and brought to ashes or drowned with water should perfectly be brought again an● wholy restored But God willing to make that easy lighte which is harde vnto vs hathe i● the resurrection of our Lord Iesus Christ set before our eies an open plain and sure trial declaration or euidēce of the true vndouted resurrection whervnto as to an ensample sure strēgth of the resurrection we ought to haue respect asmuch and as oft as we thinke vpon it and wonder howe our bodies should rise againe Therfore with so many testimonies and arguments haue I declared afore that Christe our Lorde with his owne body rose truly againe from death He caried vp Helias also liuing body and soule into heauen and mani ●ne raised he vp from the deade that we concerning the resurrection of the dead should haue vtterly no doubt at all Finally with plain euident testimonies of the scripture hath he opened and shewed as I now wil declare which testimonies and arguments truly do teache that the flesh of men shal rise again from the dead that is that oure bodies shal at the last day be truly raised vp vnto iudgement Holy Iob saith thus in the .19 Chapter O that my words now were wrytten O that they wer put in a boke wold God they wer grauen with an iron pē in Lede or in stone to continue For I am sure that my redemer liueth that he shall stande ouer the dust or earth in the later dai that I shal be clothed againe wyth this skin see God in my flesh Yea I my selfe or for my selfe shall beholde him not with other but with these same eies Mi reines are consumed within me Iobs aduersaries complained of him as though he knewe not God as though he set nothīg by him Vpon this great slander blasphemy he answereth and declareth his faith desiring that hys belefe were wrytten in Lede in hard stone that is he wisheth his faithe to be knowne to those that come after which he also declareth with few words after this maner I am of you cōplained vpon accused as though I knew not God now do I know right well in my heart yea I beleue am certified assuredly that my redemer or auenger liueth Here Iob vseth an Hebrue worde called Goel which some expounde a redemer it signifieth a rescuer an auenger such one as is a more frend of oures such as were they to whome in the law of the Iewes it apperteined to redeme the goods and to rescue them as we may learn farther out of Ruthe and of the fourth boke of Moses and with the aforesaide name Goel dothe Iob set forth and specify the Messias our Lord Iesus Christ that he liueth namely that he is the true liuing God the life resurrection of men and that he is also the rescuer and auēger doutlesse euen the same that is oure very nere frend namely a very true mā such one as hath taken our own flesh bloud vpon him suffered death with his death hath made vs liuing Moreouer he saith at the last shall he stand ouer the dust For our Lorde Iesus with his very true body shall come at the last day to iudge and then shall he stand ouer the dust This saying declareth euidently that he will vndertake and doe somewhat namely that he shall put to his mighty hand so order and bring to passe that the dust shall come to life againe The dust calleth he here our flesh and that according to the scripture And wyth this doth he wonderfull well expresse the truth of our flesh namely that our very owne true flesh shall rise againe For he will certify vs that euen the very same bodi which at the first was made of dust and now into dust is sowne thorow the corruption is becom dust agaī yea euen that same very body none other shal be raised vp But to the intent that no man shuld draw or referre the dust to any other thing thē to the body of mā It foloweth moreouer in holy Iob that after they namely the father the son the holy gost haue with my skin not with a straunge but with mine owne skin clothed the body euē mine owne body which I nowe haue called dust therby vnderstandeth he the fleshe the sinowes the bones then shall I see God in my flesh that is fully and perfectly shall I be restored made whole again For to see God is nothing els but to be partaker of eternall ioy saluation And to se god in or frō out of that flesh is to be taken vp corporally into euerlasting ioy Besides this he dothe yet more euidently expresse the perfectnesse of the resurrection of the flesh and faith Whom I for my selfe shal see that is to my commodity and saluation mine eies shal see him euē I my selfe shal se him and none other for me In the which words it is principalli to be noted that he sayth I shal se him yea euē I my selfe Then mine eyes shall see him Finally I and els none other As he wold say euen I the now haue true flesh and bone loke nowe vpon you wyth mine eyes shall with the very same eyes beholde God also Therefore in the resurrection of the deade we shal with the essenciall substance nature be euen the same that we were before deathe namely we shal haue our members as hed eyes bones belly armes legs hands fete c. Now wher this distinction is there must be also circumscription there must the same haue compace and limits It followeth yet farther in Iob my reines namely my desire lust are wasted away and cōsumed within me that is wyth in me namely in my hart are ceased all other desires lustes and pleasures in comparison of this my hope towards the resurrection yea in comparison thereof thei al are nothing neither worthy to be estemed For in the only Resurrection resteth all my hope and delite So sayde Paule also I haue counted all things but losse and do iudge them but dunge that I mighte winne Christ to knowe him and the vertue of his resurrection And therfore the olde translator of the boke of Iob hath euill interpreted these wordes after the sense this hope is layed vp in my hart After all this dothe holy Io●● adde herevnto that maketh the vnderstanding perfect and concludeth his saying thus Seing I this knowledge cōfes why holde ye me for vngodly Why do ye persecute me and vexe me thus with spiteful wordes of reproche and slaunder Yet is the roote of the worde found in me And he calleth the roote
