What manner one was Christ when he rose againe?

Wholy glorious.

1. In respect of the Diuinitie, for whereas before it was hid in Christ, now it was fully manifested and reuealed.

2. In respect of his humanitie, because all infirmities and acci∣dentall properties, with which Christ was borne, as also all aduer∣sities and miseries, and all necessities of hauing meate, drinke, sleepe, &c. being laid away; it was fully and to the highest degree of perfection, adorned with new qualities, but such as were crea∣ted aboue & besides the common order of nature, as in the soule, wisdome, ioyfulnes, &c. In the bodie, incorruptibilitie, subtilitie, nimblenesse, brightnesse and shining, through the power of the Godhead dwelling in it, by which also it was exalted farre aboue all creaturesb 1.1. But the essentiall properties of it being still kept, so that his body being now in glorie, is still according to the or∣dinarie dispensation of nature, to be seene and felt, composed of instrumentall parts, finite, and conteined in place, as Christ him∣selfe after his resurrection teacheth. See ye my hands and my feete, for it is euen I my selfe. For a Spirit hath no flesh and bone, as yee see me haue. Luk. 24.39.
