But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:

Ver. 10. By the appearing] By his coming in the flesh; of which also the Psalmist speaketh, Psalms 96:13 .

Brought life and immortality to light] As he drew light out of darkness at the creation. And as he then made light on the first day of the week, so on the same day he abolished death, &c., by his resurrection from the dead; by virtue also whereof

" Et sensus scoplis, et silvis addidit aures;

Et Diti lachrymas, et Morti denique vitam.

De Orpheo Manilius.
