Naked came I out of my mothers womb, and naked shall I return thither, (Job 1.21.) The Earth is the mother of all men; all men come from earth, and return to the earth: But did ever any return thither, to come out of it the second time? Nico∣demus had an express example of it in the Old Testament, in that dead man's corpse that was thrown into Elisha's Sepulchre, and came out of it living, (2 King. 13.21.) Other examples of that wonder ap∣peared since: In Lazarus, who came out of the Grave, wherein he was interred some days before; in many bodies of Saints that rose from the dust, and came out of their monuments after the Resur∣rection of Christ. The Regeneration of which our Lord was here speaking to Ni∣codemus, is often represented as a Resur∣rection.
