21. That in the passion and the sign of
the cross is all virtue and power.
In Habakkuk: “His virtue covered the
heavens, and the earth is full of His praise, and His splendour shall
be as the light; there shall be horns in His hands. And there the
virtue of His glory was established, and He founded His strong
love. Before His face shall go the Word, and shall go forth unto
the plains according to His steps.”4076
In Isaiah also:
“Behold, unto us a child is born, and to us a Son is given, upon
whose shoulders shall be government; and His name shall be called the
Messenger of a mighty thought.”4077
By this sign of the cross also
Amalek was conquered by Jesus through Moses. In Exodus Moses said
to Jesus: “Choose thee out men, and go forth, and order
yourselves with Amalek until the morrow. Behold, I will stand on
the top of the hill, and the rod of God in mine hand. And it came
to pass, when Moses lifted up his hands, Israel prevailed; but when
Moses had let down his hands, Amalek waxed strong. But the hands
of Moses were heavy; and they took a stone, and placed it under him,
and he sat upon it and Aaron and Hur held up his hands, on the one side
and on the other side; and the hands of Moses were made steady even to
the setting of the sun. And Jesus routed Amalek and all his people. And the
Lord said unto Moses, Write this, that it may be a memorial in a book,
and tell it unto the ears of Jesus, that I may utterly destroy the
memory of Amalek from under heaven.”4078
