⚠ Note on Chapter & Verse Numbers

This content was digitized from the original 1609 Douay (Old Testament) and 1582 Rheims (New Testament) print editions by OCR. The OCR process sometimes confused print page numbers with verse numbers, and may have assigned annotations to the wrong chapter. Chapter and verse labels on this page reflect the OCR output from the original print pagination and may not correspond to canonical Scripture chapter/verse numbers. For canonical reference, consult a standard Douay-Rheims edition. The annotation texts themselves are authentic 1609/1582 Douay-Rheims content.

Verse 17

17. His owne crosse.) THE HOLY CROSSE. This crosse, for that it was the instrument of our redemption, and as it were the altar of the supreme sacrifice, highly sanctified by the touching, hearing, and oblation of the sacred body and bloud of our Lord, is truly called the HOLY CROSSE: and hath been endued with virtue of miracles, both the whole and euery litle peece thereof. For the which causes, and specially for the most near memorial of Christs Passion, it hath been visited in Pilgrimages, honored by festiual daies and otherwise, reserued and reuerenced of the ancient fathers, with al deuotion: as contrariwise it hath been abused of Pagans, Apostates, and Heretikes, seeking in vain to deface and destroy it.

Verse 34

34. Bloud and water.) The Sacraments issued out of Christs side, & thence haue their virtue. This piercing of Christs side, though on the soldiers part it was done blindly and insolently, yet by Gods ordinance it contained great mysteries, and was prefigured by Moyses striking the rock with his rod: as this streame of bloud and water drawn miraculously out of his dead body, running in the Sacraments of the Church after the people of God, was signified by the water of the same rock following the Israelites in the desert, *Out of this side (saith St. Augustine) issued the Sacraments. Hence (saith St. Chrysostom) the great mysteries haue their beginning. Who warneth vs, that when we come to drinke of the holy chalice, we should so approach, as though we drew the bloud out of Christs side. And both bloud and water apart did flow forth, to show vs the fountaine of the two principal Sacraments, and their seueral matters, Baptisme and the Eucharist, springing to life euerlasting in the Church. The Church builded of Christs side, as Eue of Adams. The fathers also say that the Church who is Christs spouse and his coadiutrice in applying the bloud and water to the benefit of the Faithful, was here formed, builded, and taken out of this holy side of Christ sleeping on the Crosse, as *Eue was of Adams side, when he was cast asleep in Paradise. *Exo. 18. Num. 30. Tract. 9. in Ioan. Hom. 24. in Ioan. **Gen. 2,21.
