the_o union_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n in_o a_o shadow_n by_o r._n c._n london_n print_v for_o richard_z bishop_n 1642._o the_o union_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n shadow_v it_o be_v ordinary_a in_o matter_n both_o of_o practice_n and_o opinion_n for_o man_n when_o they_o turn_v from_o one_o extreme_a to_o run_v too_o far_o upon_o the_o other_o by_o a_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d as_o saint_n basil_n call_v it_o and_o i_o wish_v some_o divine_n have_v not_o be_v surprise_v a_o little_a with_o this_o deceit_n as_o in_o some_o other_o thing_n so_o in_o the_o theological_a consideration_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o marriage_n and_o whilst_o they_o have_v be_v carry_v by_o a_o heat_n of_o opposition_n against_o that_o fond_a tenet_n of_o the_o papist_n of_o seven_o sacrament_n confer_v grace_n ex_fw-la opere_fw-la operato_fw-la whereof_o we_o have_v deserve_o reject_v all_o but_o two_o they_o have_v not_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n neglect_v and_o pass_v over_o without_o any_o observation_n that_o mystical_a notion_n which_o be_v contain_v in_o it_o which_o lest_o i_o shall_v seem_v rash_o and_o unground_o to_o affirm_v i_o will_v first_o lay_v down_o as_o the_o foundation_n of_o my_o discourse_n a_o paragraph_n of_o st._n paul_n epistle_n to_o the_o ephesian_n in_o the_o five_o chapter_n from_o the_o 22_o verse_n to_o the_o 33._o 22_o wife_n submit_v yourselves_o unto_o your_o own_o husband_n as_o unto_o the_o lord_n 23_o for_o the_o husband_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o wife_n as_o christ_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n and_o he_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o the_o body_n 24_o therefore_o as_o the_o church_n be_v subject_a unto_o christ_n so_o let_v the_o wife_n be_v to_o their_o own_o husband_n in_o every_o thing_n 25_o husband_n love_v your_o wife_n even_o as_o christ_n also_o love_v the_o church_n and_o give_v himself_o for_o it_o 26_o that_o he_o may_v sanctify_v and_o cleanse_v it_o with_o the_o wash_n of_o water_n by_o the_o word_n 27_o that_o he_o may_v present_v it_o to_o himself_o a_o glorious_a church_n not_o have_v spot_n or_o wrinkle_n or_o any_o such_o thing_n but_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v holy_a and_o without_o blemish_n 28_o so_o ought_v man_n to_o love_v their_o wife_n as_o their_o own_o body_n he_o that_o love_v his_o wife_n love_v himself_o 29_o for_o no_o man_n ever_o yet_o hate_v his_o own_o flesh_n but_o nourish_v and_o cherish_v it_o even_o as_o the_o lord_n the_o church_n 30_o for_o we_o be_v member_n of_o his_o body_n of_o his_o flesh_n and_o of_o his_o bone_n 31_o for_o this_o cause_n shall_v a_o man_n leave_v his_o father_n and_o mother_n and_o cleave_v to_o his_o wife_n and_o they_o two_o shall_v be_v one_o flesh_n 32_o this_o be_v a_o great_a mystery_n but_o i_o speak_v

allege_v first_o that_o the_o union_n of_o man_n and_o wife_n be_v a_o type_n of_o the_o union_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n which_o be_v the_o architype_n second_o that_o the_o make_n of_o eve_n at_o first_o out_o of_o adam_n and_o then_o the_o unite_n of_o both_o again_o by_o marriage_n into_o one_o in_o paradise_n be_v all_o typical_a of_o christ_n the_o second_o adam_n and_o his_o wife_n the_o church_n three_o how_o and_o in_o what_o respect_v the_o marriage_n of_o man_n and_o wife_n do_v typical_o signify_v the_o union_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n for_o the_o first_o that_o the_o union_n between_o man_n and_o wife_n be_v a_o type_n whereof_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n be_v the_o archetype_n this_o i_o prove_v from_o the_o whole_a scope_n of_o this_o place_n where_o the_o apostle_n fall_v upon_o economical_a duty_n and_o first_o those_o between_o man_n and_o wife_n he_o derive_v they_o whole_o and_o bring_v the_o reason_n of_o they_o from_o the_o relation_n between_o the_o church_n and_o christ_n suppose_v that_o to_o be_v the_o copy_n and_o archetype_n to_o which_o the_o relation_n of_o man_n and_o wife_n be_v to_o be_v conform_v first_o he_o begin_v with_o the_o duty_n of_o the_o woman_n vers_fw-la 22._o wife_n submit_v yourselves_o to_o your_o husband_n as_o unto_o the_o lord_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d sicut_fw-la domino_fw-la nostro_fw-la say_v the_o syriack_n i.e._n the_o lord_n christ_n for_o the_o true_a meaning_n be_v as_o behold_v a_o type_n of_o christ_n in_o your_o husband_n submit_v yourselves_o to_o they_o and_o this_o a_o popish_a interpreter_n well_o observe_v in_o viris_fw-la vestris_fw-la considerantes_fw-la christum_fw-la dominum_fw-la qui_fw-la est_fw-la caput_fw-la &_o sponsus_fw-la ecclesiae_fw-la so_o the_o follow_a verse_n expound_v it_o for_o the_o husband_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o wife_n as_o christ_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n therefore_o as_o the_o church_n be_v subject_a unto_o christ_n so_o let_v the_o wife_n be_v subject_a to_o their_o husband_n in_o all_o thing_n to_o fancy_n nothing_o here_o but_o a_o bare_a similitude_n between_o man_n and_o wife_n christ_n and_o
the_o church_n be_v to_o make_v s._n paul_n discourse_n to_o be_v very_o dilute_a then_o he_o come_v to_o the_o duty_n of_o the_o husband_n vers_fw-la 25._o which_o he_o draw_v likewise_o from_o the_o manner_n of_o christ_n behaviour_n to_o the_o church_n husband_n love_v your_o wife_n as_o christ_n love_v the_o church_n and_o give_v himself_o for_o it_o and_o so_o onward_o to_o the_o 28._o verse_n where_o he_o show_v that_o as_o the_o wife_n be_v to_o honour_v the_o husband_n as_o her_o head_n because_o christ_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n so_o the_o husband_n be_v to_o love_v the_o wife_n as_o his_o body_n because_o the_o church_n be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n vers_fw-la 28_o 29_o 30_o 31._o and_o then_o in_o the_o close_a of_o all_o he_o give_v a_o account_n why_o he_o have_v use_v this_o parallel_n all_o along_o for_o this_o cause_n shall_v a_o man_n leave_v father_n and_o mother_n and_o cleave_v to_o his_o wife_n and_o they_o two_o shall_v be_v one_o flesh_n this_o be_v a_o great_a mystery_n i_o speak_v of_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n that_o be_v because_o the_o union_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n thus_o adumbrate_v and_o shadow_v out_o in_o the_o
