4. Some are of opinion that this whole transaction was visible, sensible and corporeal, as _Theophylact_, and many others. Some are of opinion that it was wholly in a Vision. And some take a middle way that it was partly sensible and visible, and partly mental, and by way of vision. Of which opinion the great _Cameron_ seems to be, who compares it with that of _Ezekiel_ who saith: _And the spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem_: And sheweth that the word Ἀνήχθη doth agree with the Hebrew word ‏נשא‎, which is as applicable to lifting up or carrying in a vision, as to bodily transportation. And that it was either altogether, or partly in a vision, the learned _Beza_ gives us this note: _Hoc videtur satis ostendere hæc omnia per visionem quandam, non corporali transvectione & ostensione esse gesta, quomodo nempe humanitus videre potuisset omnia regna orbis, & gloriam eorum in momento?_ But though it be the more sound and rational opinion that the whole transaction was mental, and in a vision, yet we shall not altogether stand upon that, but if it be granted that it was corporeal and visible, yet it doth not appear that our Saviour was in his Body carried by the power of the Devil in the air, either to the top of an high mountain, nor set upon the pinnacle of the Temple in _Jerusalem_, and that for these reasons. 1. Our Saviour did not go to undertake this combat with Satan unwillingly, that he need be constrained, or carried to try the utmost power and malice of the Devil, but readily and willingly by the conduct and leading of the holy Spirit, for the Text saith in _Matthew_; _Then was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness, to be tempted of the Devil_: And S. _Mark_ saith; _And immediately the spirit driveth him into the wilderness_. And S. _Luke_ saith: _He was led by the spirit into the wilderness_. _Beza_ saith, _subductus fuit in desertum_, and _Tremellius_ saith, _ductus fuit_, upon the place in S. _Matthews_ Gospel. And in S. _Luke_ _Tremellius_ saith; _Et duxit eum spiritus in desertum_, and _Beza_, _actus est ab eodem spiritu in desertum_. And in S. _Mark_ _Tremellius_ saith, _deduxit eum spiritus in desertum_, and _Beza_ rendreth it, _expellit eum spiritus in desertum_. And because of the Greek word which is there ἐκβάλλει, he addeth this note, _Non significatur expulsio violenta, sed vis divina, quæ Christum, (qui ad illud usq; tempus ut privatus vixerat) nova persona induit, ac luctæ proximæ & ministerio præparatur_. Therefore saith _Origen_: _Sequebatur planè quasi athleta ad tentationem sponte proficiscens, & quodammodo loquebatur: Duc quo vis, & invenies me in omnibus fortiorem_. So that it is most plain that he was no otherwise led or carried by Satan, but as he was led by the Holy Ghost, so that he went whithersoever Satan would desire him of his own mind and accord, and needed not to be carried by the Devil, for S.
