A44247 The doctrine of life, or, Of mans redemption, by the seed of Eve, the seed of Abraham, the seed of David, &c. as it was taught in severall periods of time, from Gen. 3. 15. till Christ came in the flesh, to fulfill all typicall prefigurations of him by his death : wherein also sundry other fundamentall points are discussed and cleared from some common mistakes : as Daniels chronologie of seventy sevens, which is cleared from the uncertainty which too many expositors have unadvisedly cast upon it : and about the Jewes calling, that it must not be understand of any return to Canaan, or of their restauration to a perspicuous common wealth any more, but of the calling of a remnant of them to the faith, in the countries where they live dispersed : and with the true nature of our Lords sufferings, with sundry other such like points, as may be seen in the table : propounded by way of question and answer, with annotations thereunto annexed : divided into three parts / by Edward Holyoke of New-England. Holyoke, Edward, d. 1660. 1658 (1658) Wing H2534; ESTC R22353 401,616 468

yet_o they_o do_v also_o deny_v that_o christ_n suffer_v hell_n torment_v but_o the_o way_n of_o christ_n suffering_n for_o our_o redemption_n that_o i_o approve_v and_o follow_v be_v this_o namely_o that_o he_o suffer_v as_o a_o combater_n from_o his_o malignant_a combater_n satan_n according_a to_o god_n declaration_n of_o the_o combat_n of_o enmity_n between_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n and_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o serpent_n for_o god_n proclaim_v a_o liberty_n to_o the_o serpent_n seed_n to_o pierce_v he_o in_o the_o footstool_n as_o a_o sinful_a malefactor_n on_o the_o cross_n and_o therefore_o hence_o it_o follow_v that_o all_o christ_n outward_a suffering_n must_v be_v inflict_v on_o he_o from_o the_o enmity_n of_o his_o proclaim_a enemy_n satan_n and_o second_o hence_o it_o follow_v that_o his_o internal_a suffering_n be_v from_o the_o sense_n of_o his_o outward_a or_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v true_a man_n must_v be_v tender_o touch_v and_o deep_o affect_v with_o his_o evil_a usage_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v god_n will_v and_o christ_n own_o covenant_n that_o all_o h●●_n internal_a humane_a passion_n of_o fear_n sorrow_n and_o sadness_n in_o his_o vital_a and_o animal_n soul_n shall_v arise_v from_o the_o evil_a usage_n of_o his_o malignant_a combater_n satan_n namely_o from_o the_o evil_a usage_n of_o satan_n malicious_a and_o envious_a instrument_n and_o three_o this_o way_n of_o christ_n suffering_n be_v in_o god_n wisdom_n ordain_v to_o be_v for_o his_o priestly_a perfection_n or_o for_o his_o consecration_n before_o he_o can_v make_v his_o

of_o vindictive_a justice_n and_o i_o believe_v that_o all_o other_o after_o scripture_n that_o speak_v of_o christ_n suffering_n be_v but_o a_o commentary_n on_o god_n declaration_n in_o gen._n
