Verse 28

28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,

Ver. 28. Marvel not at this ] And yet who can but marvel at this great mystery of godliness, whereat angels stand amazed? yea, whereat he himself wonders; and therefore calls, his own name Wonderful,Isaiah 9:6; Isaiah 9:6 . It is truly affirmed of Christ, that he is created and uncreated, without beginning, and yet began in time, a Jew according to the flesh, and yet God blessed for ever, &c. The manner hereof is to be believed, not discussed; admired, not pried into, &c. Mirari decet non rimari.

His voice ] Put forth by the ministry of mighty angels, and called by the apostle κελευσμα , 1 Thessalonians 4:16 ; a metaphor from watermen, who call upon one another, and strike oars together, as it were with one consent.
