For by this was signified the imperishable and incorruptible tabernacle of (the Lord) Himself, which gendered no corruption of sin. For the sinner, indeed, makes this confession: ""My wounds stank, and were corrupt, because of my foolishness.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
