From Johann Gerhard’s Postilla (1613)

For though it may compel a man outwardly to appear godly before men, inwardly it leaves the heart at enmity with the Law, and wishing that there were no such Law. The other proclamation is that of the Gospel. It tells where one may obtain that which meet the demands of the Law. It does not drive or threaten, but tenderly invites us. ................
