Wishing to answer the above-stated objection somewhat
more fully, he maintains that this request, had it not been impossible
in itself, would have been possible for Christ to grant; especially as
the Father has given all judgment to Him; which gift we must understand
to have been given without any feature of imperfection. However,
he proves that the request must be reckoned amongst the
impossibilities. To make it really possible, he teaches that
Christ’s answer must be taken in accordance with His human
nature, and shows this next by an exposition of the passage.
Lastly, he once more confirms the reply he has given on the
impossibility of Christ’s session.
