6. But the--justifying
righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise--"speaketh
thus"--its language or import is to this effect (quoting in substance
De 30:13, 14).
Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? that is, to
bring Christ down, &c.--that is, "Ye have not to sigh over the
impossibility of attaining to justification; as if one should say, oh!
if I could but get someone to mount up to heaven and fetch me down
Christ, there might be some hope, but since that cannot be, mine is a
desperate case."
