§. 169. Of this generall all things, wherein Christ was made like to man.

THough every particular be comprised under this generall all things, yet they* 1.1 may be ranked under such heads, as will shew that they were very many, Those Heads are these,

1. The essentiall parts of mans nature, which were soul and body.
2. The powers of his soul, as, Understanding and Will, together with his affe∣ctions; Both liking, as, Hope, Desire, Love and Joy; and disliking, as Fear, An∣ger, Hatred, Grief, and all manner of senses; Both internal, as, the common sense, phantasie and memory; and external, as Sight, Hearing, Smelling, Tasting, Feeling.
3. The several and distinct parts of the body, whether inward or outward, which are very many and well known; The outward especially.
4. The growth of the parts of Christs body and endowments of soul. As other* 1.2 men so Christ at first was little; He was nine moneths in his mothers womb, being born he was wrapped in swadling clothes, and carried in arms, Luk. 2. 7, 28. He also encreased in wisedome and knowledge, Luk. 2. 52. Hereby is proved a growth in pow∣ers of soul and parts of body.
...
5. Sundry infirmities of Soul; Besides the affections before-mentioned, He gr•…•…aned in the Spirit and was troubled, Joh. 11. 33. and was afflicted with other soul-sufferings, whereof See §. 76.

Sundry infirmities of body, as hunger, thirst, cold, wearisomnesse, sleepinesse, fainting, mortality.
7. Manifold temptations. Of Christs temptations and other afflictions, See §. 96.
8. Manifold afflictions. Of Christs temptations and other afflictions, See §. 96.
