33. Quest. How God was seene of Daniel, who is inuisible.

1. God in his inuisible nature, such as he is in his diuine essence, was neuer seene of any. The Apostle calleth God the King euerlasting, immortall, inuisible, 1. Tim. 1. 17. who dwel∣leth in light that none can attaine vnto, whome neuer any man saw, neither can see, 1. Tim. 6. 16.

2. And yet, if God would not be seene at all, the Apostle would not haue said of Moses, that he saw him which is inuisible, Heb. 11. 27. God then did shew some visible signes of his presence vnto his seruants, not beeing in deede any such thing as he appeared, as fire, or any such thing: but he reuealed himselfe, & induit varias formas pro captu hominum, &c. and put on diuers shapes according to mens capacitie, as it was fit for them to see God, and they were able to beare. Calv. Polan.
