MARK Chap. XVI. Ver. 14.
His third appearing: viz to the Eleven.
THE connexion is plain in John and Luke: for the former saith, The same day at even∣ing being the first day of the week, &c. And the other, that as they were speaking of his appearing to the two at Emmaus, he came in among them. The first day of the week is an ordinary Judaick phrase 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 and so they reckon the daies forward 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉The second day of the week.〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉The third day of the week, &c. They that are now so very punctual to have the days so named and no otherwise, mistake that for a phrase purely Evangelical, which indeed is a phrase purely Judaical.
As they sat at Supper Jesus cometh in among them: shews them his hands and side: eateth with them: openeth the Scriptures and their understandings: breatheth upon them, and saith, Receive ye the Holy Ghost, &c. Whosoever sins ye remit, &c. This was to interest them in a power and priviledge peculiar and distinct from any they had recei∣ved yet, and distinct from that they were to receive on Pentecost day, viz. this invested them in power of life and death, to inflict death, or corporal plagues miraculously upon the enemies or disgracers of the Gospel, or to spare them as they should be directed by the Holy Ghost, which they here received. The death of Ananias and Saphira was a fruit of this power, as is observed at that story.
Thomas was not present at this time, and yet Mark saith, He appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat: and so Luke 24. 33. Peter and Cleopas found the eleven gathered together, &c. Nay 1 Cor. 15. 5. He was seen of the twelve: The title of the whole Chorus being used, though all were not present.
