1 “And the phrase recorded by Moses and prophesied by the patriarch Jacob, ‘He shall wash His garments in wine, and His robe in the blood of the grape,’⁠a signified that He would wash those that believe in Him with His own blood. For the Holy Spirit called those who receive forgiveness of sins through Him His garments; He is always present among them in power, and will be visibly present at His second coming. 2 When Scripture speaks of the blood of the grape, it skillfully shows that Christ has blood, but not from human seed; it comes from the power of God. For just as God, not man, produced the blood of the vine, so [Scripture] foretold that the blood of Christ would come not from human descent but from the power of God. And this prophecy I quoted, sirs, proves that Christ is not a man of men, born in the ordinary human way.”
