nec antiquum fuisse nec multum temporis perdurâsse not to have been of antiquity nor to have lasted long Episcop Norwic. 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Tom. 1. par post f. 112. The miracle vvas ceased before Tertullians time and as it should seem so soon as they had filled up the measure of their iniquities in the death of the just one adver Iud. cap. 13. It vvas not only a miracle but a great mystery and so do the learned fathers understand it though they diversly apply it Most of them to the sacrament of Baptisme vvherein a man is made vvhole of all spirituall diseases by the holy Ghost Among that multitude of impotent folk lay a certain man vvhich had an infirmity conjectured to be the palsie a disease vvherein either all the body The impotent man cured who had been diseased 38 years or some one or more of the members be mortified and deprived of feeling and moving as the hands the eyes c. thirty and eight years His disease had made him impotent his poverty had made him unable to hire any one to attend upon him and to put him into the water when it should be moved and the long continuance of his impotency had made him miserable A fit object was he for Christ his mercy Therefore said he unto him Wilt thou be made whole not be●●use he did doubt of it for what impotent man vvould not be made vvhole But he vvould have him to behold the true physician whose comming was to cure those that are willing The man telleth him the cause why he had not been cured He was poor and had no man when the water was troubled to put him into the pool he was also more impotent then others so that alwaies while he was comming who could make no haste by reason of his impotency some one or other stepped down before him Christ therefore cureth him by his word commandeth him to arise to take up his bed and walk which he did immediately For so is the history delivered by Saint John S. Joh. 5.1 And there was a feast of the Iewes 2 and Iesus went up to Hierusalem Now there is at Hierusalem by the sheep market a pool which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda 3 having five porches In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk of blinde halt withered waiting for the moving of the water 4 For an angell went down at a certain season into the pool and troubled the water whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in 5 was made whole of whatsoever disease he had And a certain man was there which had an infirmity thirty and eight years When Jesus saw him lie and knew that he had been now a long time in that case he saith unto him wilt thou be made whole 6 The impotent man answered him Sir I have no man when the water is troubled to put me into the poole but while I am comming 7 8 9. another steppeth down before me Jesus saith unto him Rise take up thy bed and walke And immediately the man was made whole and took up his bed and walked and the same day was the sabbath By occasion of the Sabbath day and it seems that it was that Sabbath which St. Iohn calleth an high day S. Joh. 19.31 namely the first or great day of the feast in which they did eat the passeover and had eaten it the evening before the Iewes take upon them to quarrell the poor man that was made whole objecting to him the breach of the law It is the sabbath day The poorman qua●elled by the Jewes v. 10. it is not lawfull for thee to carrie thy bed It was indeed unto the Jewes a breach of the law and a great offence to bear any burthen upon the sabbath day for thus saith the Prophet Jeremiah Thus saith the Lord take heed to your selves and bear no burden on the sabbath day nor bring it in by the gates of Hierusalem Jer. 17.21 Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day neither do ye any worke but hallow ye the sabbath day as I commanded your fathers 22 The charge therefore against him was great that he violated the sabbath nay the greatest of all the sabbaths the great day of the feast the high day Neither doth he deny the violation of the sabbath to be a great offence nor doth he seek to extenuate his fault but justifieth the bearing of that burden by the authority of him that had commanded him so to do and that was he by whom he was made whole He that made me whole the same said unto me Take up thy bed and walke Hereat the Jewes enraged 11. demand not the cure nor who it vvas that had healed him nor hovv or in what manner he had done it but vvho it vvas that had given him commission to carry a burthen upon the sabbath day What man is that which said unto thee Take up thy bed and walke 12 They enquire vvhat man it vvas to the end that they might persequute him But he that vvas healed could give no satisfactory ansvver for he knevv not vvho it vvas And Jesus had conveyed himselfe away a multitude being in that place 13 Then having first disposed his burthen he comes to the Temple to vvorship and to praise God Iesus findeth him there putteth him in mind of the benefit vvhich he had received to the end that he should be thankfull acknovvledge him the author and look more carefully to his vvaies hereafter Behold thou art made whole sin no more lest a worse thing come unto thee The man departed at that saying 14 vvent boldly to the Jewes and to the end that he might give God the glory and testifie of Christ told them that it vvas Jesus vvhich had made him vvhole And therefore did the Iewes persecute Jesus and sought to slay him 15. because he had done these things on the sabbath day Because he had healed the man and had also commanded him to carry his bed Christ avoucheth his authority But vvhen he told them by vvhat authority namely that God vvas his Father and that he vvas equall vvith him then vvere they the more enrag'd and sought the more to kill him Yet he maintains his vvord affirming the Fathers operation his to be all one in every thing and that he vvould do greater things then those miraculous cures for he would quicken the dead in soule by sin as being appointed judge of all and quicken the dead in body also judging all with righteous judgement And to the end that they might perceive that he is God and the son of God he produceth the testimony of St. Iohn the Baptist his own miraculous works the witness of his Father from heaven at his Baptisme and the scriptures themselves which testifie of him And these are the things which we read to have
