Christ Glorified not Himself
Hebrews 5:4-6
And no man takes this honor to himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.…


As the Pope doth, who will needs be styled Pontifex Maximum, the greatest high priest. Pope Hildebrand especially, whom, when no man would advance to Peter's chair, he gad up himself. Said he, "Who can better judge of me than myself?"

(J. Trapp)
