Catholicity, Orthodoxy, and Lordship
In explaining why God would invite the rich and prosperous (literally, the fat ones) into his banquet, Matthew Henry says:
They are not, it is true, urged, by the pressure of present calamities, to seek comfort for grief, but they have need of a remedy to prevent them from intoxicating themselves with their delights.
Matthew Henry writes:
The resurrection of Christ, as it is the joy of his friends, so it is the terror and confusion of his enemies.
…the manner of the re-uniting of Christ’s soul and body in his resurrection is a mystery, one of the secret things that belong not to us; but the infallible proofs of his resurrection, that he did indeed rise from the dead, and was thereby proved to be the Son of God, are things revealed, which belong to us and to our children.[1]
