of the Master a Dialogue betweene himselfe and Adeodatus where hee teaches him the elements of learning for signes syllables words at length in the close of that booke he concludes that in vaine he teaches his sonne Adeodatus except he be instructed taught of the Lord. There is no Rabbi or Master to teach a man true wisedome but God according to that in the Gospell one is your Master Christ. Who I say was euer wise Siue latens in vtero siue vagiens in praesepio Siue iam grandiusculus interrogans Doctores in templo non minus sapientia fuit conceptus quàm natus paruus quàm magnus As wise at the cratch as among the learned Doctors as wise conceiued as being borne great in wisdome as well when little as great as wise when hee was suckled with Mary his mothers milke as when hee was of more maturity of yeeres They be the words of eloquent S. Bernard Let not that place saies he in the 2. of Luke mooue vs to thinke or speake the contrary Hee grew in wisdome and stature and fauor with God and men Which is to be vnderstood saith hee non secundùm quod erat sed secundùm quod apparebat not as he was indeede but as appeared to bee For which wee may fitly say as S.

Paul sayes Let no man contemne thy youth But a little for the Schoole The science or knowledge in Christ which was in his soule had not omniscience if so then the Creature were equall with the Creatour For for that day and that howre no man knowes no not the Angels of Heauen nor the Sonne himselfe saue the Father though this particle the Son be not in the 24 of S. Matthew Of that day the Son knowes not First hee hath no commission to reueale it say some Secondly S. Thomas of Aquine Dicitur nescire quia non facit scire He is sayd not to know because he maketh not vs to know So S. Augustine Nescit scilicet vt alijs esset reuelaturus But the truest is Christ hath nesciency of this according to his bare humanity to know this howre is without the pale of humane capacity And this ought to be the barre cancell and limit of our too scrutinous nature which often will assay to plummet the fathomlesse and bottomlesse sea of Gods most secret and hidden actions intentions presciences predestinations reprobations determinations and daily iudgements whereas wee should say with S. Ambrose diuinely treating of these needlesse scrutinies Tutum est nescire quod tegitur non intelligimus iudicantem sed videmus operantem Professed ignorance is the best sapience for concealed mysteries wee cannot diue into the depth of the Lords secret wisdome in iudging yet we may plainly discerne him working Knowledge and wisdome in that Rabboni Christ was perfect and permanent in man b●●ken and fleeting as in Salomon himselfe who was sayd to bee habituated with wisdome in one night and who had as Nazianzene speakes largenesse of heart more copious then the sand of the sea-shore yet hee confesseth of himselfe that hee was 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 more foolish then any man and not to haue the vnderstanding of a man in him Prou. 30.2 Diminutely and by a defalcation wisdome is in man when there is no absolute perfection but there may be euer some obliquity defect or redundancy seene and found by serious disquisition and so by this this wisdome is compassed by study and painefull search thus no meere man euer yet did reach vnto the eminency of wisdome a●● knowledge in this life not Salomon himselfe nay nor Adam who farre out-stripped Salomon in the knowledge of all creatures But to goe a thought further wisdome and knowledge may be in man not onely in part but at the breathing times of the Holy Ghost who breatheth where and when it lusteth euen Integrally by diuine infusion without admixtion of errour as in Salomon when hee writ the books of Misthle Shir-ha-shirim and Cohêleth and so in all the sacred Pen-men of the Scriptures who were the Amanuenses the Secretaries of the Holy Ghost But there is another Integrally not onely by diuine infusion but by inhabitation and coniunction of Diuinity and this Integrall knowledge and wisdome is in Christ and thus in Christ dwells the fulnesse of wisdome as the God-head dwels in him bodily beyond the orbe and reach of the wisest that euer liued yet because nothing worketh as we say beyond the actiuity of its owne spheare And as Theodoret speakes The beames of Diuinity in Christ were dimmed and rebated by that 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 That mantle of the flesh as appeared in his bloudy sweat his praying against that cup of passion Ioh. 18.11 and Matt. 26.39 and in that dolefull crie of My God my God why hast c. therfore in a sutable manner wisdome and knowledge in Christ had his cancels and lifts as being not infinite in regard of his humane flesh he being like vnto vs in all things sinne onely excepted and yet onely like in quality not equality And thus Christ knew not that day and that howre though he were that Rabboni Rabboni Mary knew this well that one is your Master and that is Christ. And bee not called Rabbi it is Pharisaicall And S.
