Chap. XIII. 16.

But blessed are your Eyes, &c. When a Man speaks after that manner, his mind must be very fully and throughly perswaded of what he says. And none but a Heart that leaps for joy at the Reflexion upon some extraordinary satisfaction, is able to express itself thus.

Vers. 31, 32.

The Kingdom of Heaven is like un∣to a grain of Mustard seed, which a Man took and sowed in his Field. Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown it is the greatest among herbs, and be∣cometh a tree; so that the Birds of the Air come and lodge upon the branches thereof. The progress of Christiani∣ty which had such weak and imperfect beginnings, is wonderful, and the prediction of it is no less strange and surprizing.
