As conquerors of old in their solemn triumphs used to lead their captives fettered with iron chains, so Christ having spoiled principalities and powers, made shrew of them openly, triumphing over them... It is certain that Christ fought and overcame all his enemies: he gave them the last blow upon the cross, he seized on the spoil at his resurrection, and led them in triumph at his ascension into heaven, and by his peaceable possession of this throne His subjects enjoy the benefit of it all.
- Thomas Boston
