It was by sending back the Pharisees to the most venerable Antiquity, that our Lord here asserted the Law of wedlock, against the old Custom of their Divorce. Whilst they had made themselves drunk with their muddy streams, He directed them to the Fountain, to drink themselues into sobriety. They insisted altogether on the Mosaical Dispensation; But He endeavour'd to reform them by the most Primitive Institution. They alledged a Custom, b•t He a Law. They a Permission, and that from Moses; But He a Precept, and that from God. They did reckon from afar off; But not, as He, from the Beginning. |
