4 There are in this Verſe two, no mean difhcultes, the one abou; the ſenſe of the Prohibition, when our Saviour forbad this woman to touch him ; when after his Returrettion, Ma:irh the Women to hold him by the feet ; and himſelf, wer. 17. of this Chapter, called 7homas to thiuft his hands into the hole of his fide. There are many opinions about it, the beft, ſeems to be the opinion of thoſe, who think that our Saviour ſaw Mary too fond, and , too much in the imbraces of her Lord, as if ſhe thoughr he had ben raiſed up to ſuch a converſe with them, as he had and this ertor is all which he taxeth her of, not forbidding her any kind of rouching him, fo tar as to fatiifie her [=3f thar he was truly riſen from the dead : bur reſtraining any tuch groſs conception ; The other difficulty, What force of a reaj#n there could be for Fon not touching him, becauſe he had not yet Aſcenaed ? Is much lolvel by that aniwerto the former; minding Mary, thathe was to Aſcend to his Father, tho he had nor yet Afcended ; and ther:fore nor to be enjoyed by them with fo much freedom and familiarity as before. w But ( faith he) go and tell »»y Brethren, thu 14. my Diſciples, whom the Apoſtle tells us he 1s not 2ſhamed to call Brethren, H-5. # Thar L fſcend, that is, 7 ſhall jhavtly afcond to my Fa- Thol thall very fud-

his Verſe, Chap 24 2g. Where the two Diſci- was tryards eurning, and the day was far fpent ; : called the afternoon evening, as well as the time after err and Zobr tells us exprefly, it was yet the firft day ofthe week. Fhis 1pporance is vigueſtionably the ſame, mentioned Luke 24.36. For it i: fad, the rwa Diſciples went immediately to Jeruſalem, where thay Sound the deven gathered togethicr, ana ditcourſed of the Lord $ »*carance to them ; and while they ſpake, Jelus came and ſtood 1n mid} of ther, and faith vrto them, (as here) Peace be #0 J0u. « The Ditciples had ſhut the doors of the place where they mer, for fear ofthe Fews. b Bere is a great queſtion betwixt the Lutherazs and Calvzzifs, how Chriſt came in 2mongſt them when the doors were hut? whether he went through the doors remaining ſhut , (which the Lutherans fiifly maintain, as a ftrong. proof of the poſſibility of the real preſence of the bedy of Chriit, 1n» with or under the Ele- ments of the Lord's Supper ; tho we obje&t, that tots 15 to deſtroy the nature of Chrit's body, and toaſſgn him a body, which indeed 1s no body, being net obvieus to the ſenſe, nor contincd toa plac? _ which muſt pierce another body, which is contrary to the nature © 3 body according to our notion of bodies. ) The Lutherans object, 3. That here is a plain mention of the doors being ſhut. 2. No mention of the opening of them. 3. Nor of Chnit's entrance upon 1907s, windows, roof, or by any ordinary way, as men

That if he had von? through the door, h2 would not preſently have called to them to have ſeen him, and handled him ; by which he evidenced, that his body had fnch dimenſions as our bodies have, and ſo could nor 70 through a door ſhut. In ths Ducherans reaſon, the fourth 15 eny conliderable, the three firſt have no force ; becauſe all circum- Pmmce. ofaGtions are not record:d in Holy Writ.
