as_o white_a as_o snow_n you_o know_v the_o prophet_n cure_v naaman_n of_o a_o leprosy_n and_o it_o be_v transfer_v to_o the_o prophet_n servant_n and_o to_o his_o seed_n for_o ever_o so_o that_o gehazi_n child_n be_v all_o leper_n and_o his_o grandchild_n all_o leper_n so_o that_o these_o poor_a child_n and_o grandchild_n they_o may_v rise_v up_o and_o curse_v the_o base_a spirit_n of_o covetousness_n of_o their_o father_n and_o grandfather_n that_o bring_v this_o curse_n upon_o they_o so_o you_o have_v many_o a_o poor_a wretched_a father_n and_o mother_n give_v to_o drunkenness_n and_o the_o poor_a child_n they_o follow_v the_o same_o you_o know_v how_o it_o be_v with_o the_o law_n of_o nation_n if_o a_o man_n be_v a_o traitor_n to_o the_o same_o his_o blood_n be_v taint_v his_o child_n be_v taint_v you_o know_v how_o it_o be_v with_o poor_a covetous_a achan_n that_o he_o and_o all_o his_o family_n suffer_v for_o it_o so_o corah_n dathan_n and_o abiram_n for_o envy_v moses_n and_o aaron_n they_o and_o their_o whole_a posterity_n perish_v and_o suffer_v for_o their_o father_n sin_n levi_n pay_v tithe_n in_o the_o loin_n of_o abraham_n and_o it_o be_v his_o mercy_n that_o he_o pay_v homage_n to_o god_n in_o the_o loin_n of_o his_o forefather_n now_o to_o proceed_v to_o open_v the_o follow_a word_n levi_n that_o receive_v tithe_n pay_v tithe_n in_o abraham_n if_o therefore_o perfection_n be_v in_o the_o levitical_a priesthood_n etc._n etc._n now_o here_o we_o come_v to_o the_o particular_a scope_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o levi_n pay_v tithe_n in_o the_o loin_n of_o abraham_n and_o though_o the_o priesthood_n of_o levi_n be_v holy_a yet_o it_o be_v not_o so_o holy_a as_o melchisedeck_n so_o that_o here_o be_v three_o point_n to_o be_v consider_v the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o church_n and_o people_n of_o god_n of_o old_a receive_v the_o law_n under_o a_o priesthood_n second_o the_o law_n that_o they_o receive_v under_o the_o levitical_a priesthood_n be_v not_o perfect_a three_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o the_o change_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o priesthood_n to_o the_o first_o of_o these_o that_o the_o church_n and_o people_n of_o god_n of_o old_a that_o have_v the_o law_n and_o ordinance_n of_o god_n they_o receive_v they_o under_o a_o priesthood_n for_o the_o holy_a god_n never_o deal_v with_o man_n immediate_o in_o a_o way_n of_o grace_n since_o the_o fall_n but_o by_o some_o middle_a person_n that_o stand_v between_o god_n and_o man._n therefore_o before_o god_n give_v a_o law_n melchisedeck_v be_v set_v up_o a_o priest_n and_o head_n to_o be_v a_o typical_a mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n between_o god_n and_o his_o people_n of_o which_o jesus_n christ_n be_v afterward_o to_o come_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o show_v himself_o the_o real_a melchisedeck_v heb._n 5._o 1._o for_o every_o high_a priest_n take_v from_o among_o man_n be_v ordain_v for_o man_n in_o thing_n pertain_v to_o god_n man_n may_v in_o thing_n pertain_v to_o man_n go_v without_o a_o priest_n but_o in_o thing_n pertain_v to_o god_n they_o must_v have_v a_o priesthood_n for_o god_n be_v a_o holy_a god_n there_o be_v a_o vast_a disproportion_n between_o a_o holy_a god_n and_o sinful_a man_n and_o consider_v his_o greatness_n his_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n the_o people_n receive_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o law_n under_o a_o priesthood_n quest_n but_o you_o will_v say_v there_o be_v no_o levitical_a priesthood_n for_o many_o hundred_o year_n after_o man_n fall_n for_o this_o levitical_a priesthood_n be_v not_o till_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n come_v out_o of_o egypt_n i_o answ_n not_o so_o for_o then_o before_o the_o levitical_a priesthood_n be_v every_o first-born_a of_o the_o family_n the_o priest_n of_o the_o family_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o numb_a 3._o 12._o and_o i_o behold_v i_o have_v take_v the_o levite_n from_o among_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n instead_o of_o all_o the_o first-born_a i_o have_v take_v the_o levite_n instead_o of_o the_o first-born_a that_o be_v the_o priest_n of_o the_o family_n this_o be_v the_o law_n before_o the_o levitical_a priesthood_n that_o the_o first-born_a of_o the_o family_n be_v the_o priest_n of_o the_o family_n to_o offer_v gift_n and_o sacrifice_n and_o in_o allusion_n to_o this_o jesus_n christ_n our_o great_a high_a priest_n be_v call_v the_o first-born_a of_o many_o brethren_n rom._n 8._o 29._o and_o therefore_o this_o shall_v teach_v we_o this_o duty_n that_o as_o god_n give_v his_o law_n and_o ordinance_n first_o typical_a and_o then_o real_a that_o we_o shall_v never_o go_v to_o god_n but_o by_o our_o great_a high_a priest_n we_o ought_v always_o to_o have_v such_o a_o holy_a reverence_n of_o the_o great_a god_n that_o we_o shall_v never_o draw_v near_o to_o god_n without_o our_o great_a highpriest_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n 2._o though_o god_n do_v give_v the_o levitical_a law_n of_o old_a to_o his_o church_n yet_o this_o law_n do_v not_o make_v any_o thing_n perfect_a they_o be_v bless_v mean_n and_o ordinance_n of_o god_n and_o be_v of_o great_a use_n themselves_o but_o they_o do_v not_o make_v the_o comer_n thereto_o perfect_a all_o the_o priesthood_n of_o the_o law_n can_v not_o effectual_o cleanse_v sin_n away_o no_o and_o if_o he_o do_v come_v with_o his_o sacrifice_n yet_o it_o can_v not_o justify_v he_o neither_o can_v it_o true_o sanctify_v he_o but_o you_o will_v say_v if_o this_o sacrifice_n do_v not_o take_v away_o sin_n to_o what_o end_n then_o serve_v the_o law_n i_o answer_v first_o to_o keep_v the_o church_n in_o obedience_n till_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n come_v that_o christ_n shall_v come_v in_o the_o flesh_n for_o if_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o give_v they_o his_o law_n and_o ordinance_n there_o will_v have_v be_v no_o distinction_n between_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o the_o heathen_a world_n yea_o they_o will_v have_v run_v into_o all_o kind_n of_o will-worship_n with_o the_o heathen-world_n if_o they_o have_v not_o have_v his_o law_n and_o ordinance_n 2._o though_o they_o can_v not_o make_v the_o comer_n to_o they_o perfect_a yet_o they_o be_v lead_v by_o they_o to_o jesus_n christ_n where_o their_o perfection_n be_v their_o sacrifice_n lead_v they_o to_o jesus_n christ_n this_o be_v the_o great_a end_n of_o all_o the_o jewish_a law_n and_o ceremony_n to_o lead_v they_o to_o jesus_n christ_n for_o god_n elect_a in_o those_o day_n do_v feed_v upon_o jesus_n christ_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o apostle_n word_n 1_o cor._n 10._o they_o do_v all_o eat_v of_o the_o same_o spiritual_a meat_n and_o they_o do_v all_o drink_n of_o the_o same_o spiritual_a drink_n the_o same_o that_o we_o eat_v and_o the_o same_o that_o we_o drink_v those_o that_o have_v faith_n in_o christ_n do_v live_v under_o a_o dark_a dispensation_n yet_o they_o do_v eat_v the_o same_o spiritual_a bread_n that_o we_o do_v so_o that_o the_o law_n you_o see_v be_v of_o use_n though_o it_o do_v not_o make_v the_o comer_n to_o it_o perfect_a this_o be_v the_o second_o thing_n 3._o the_o law_n be_v imperfect_a &_o not_o make_v any_o person_n or_o thing_n perfect_a therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o the_o change_n of_o the_o law_n of_o the_o priesthood_n this_o he_o prove_v thus_o if_o this_o levitical_a law_n and_o priesthood_n can_v have_v make_v the_o church_n and_o people_n of_o god_n happy_a god_n will_v never_o have_v speak_v of_o another_o priesthood_n after_o melchisedeck_v and_o god_n will_v never_o have_v set_v up_o another_o priest_n make_v by_o his_o oath_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o another_o law_n and_o another_o priesthood_n a_o necessity_n of_o a_o change_n and_o here_o you_o may_v take_v special_a notice_n of_o a_o change_n of_o the_o priesthood_n but_o what_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v by_o the_o change_n of_o the_o law_n i_o answer_v by_o change_v of_o the_o law_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v a_o abolition_n or_o abrogation_n of_o the_o levitical_a law_n and_o all_o settle_a in_o a_o more_o clear_a manner_n on_o the_o priesthood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n so_o that_o we_o now_o receive_v the_o law_n by_o christ_n in_o the_o room_n of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n and_o it_o be_v a_o bless_a change_n for_o we_o and_o it_o shall_v abundant_o raise_v our_o heart_n in_o that_o now_o we_o have_v another_o priesthood_n and_o another_o law_n why_o because_o the_o old_a priesthood_n and_o the_o old_a law_n can_v not_o make_v the_o comer_n to_o they_o perfect_a and_o it_o be_v a_o burdensome_a priesthood_n and_o a_o burdensome_a law_n see_v i_o pray_v you_o act_v 15._o 10._o you_o will_v find_v there_o that_o the_o old_a law_n the_o

better_o than_o my_o father_n he_o long_v to_o be_v gather_v to_o his_o father_n now_o to_o apply_v this_o if_o child_n be_v in_o the_o common_a condition_n with_o their_o father_n by_o nature_n then_o this_o shall_v first_o teach_v we_o humility_n our_o father_n where_o be_v they_o their_o body_n be_v rot_v in_o the_o grave_a whilst_o our_o body_n and_o carcase_n be_v alive_a we_o shall_v

and_o you_o have_v many_o child_n that_o inherit_v nothing_o but_o their_o father_n vice_n and_o wickedness_n for_o as_o god_n covenant_n do_v many_o time_n run_v in_o a_o blood_n and_o there_o be_v a_o seed_n to_o serve_v god_n from_o one_o generation_n to_o another_o in_o some_o family_n so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o devil_n covenant_n run_v in_o a_o blood_n with_o many_o father_n and_o

for_o that_o all_o have_v sin_v and_o in_o the_o 18._o ver_fw-la therefore_o as_o by_o the_o offence_n of_o one_o judgement_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n to_o condemnation_n by_o the_o offence_n of_o

than_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n by_o which_o we_o be_v save_v signify_v nothing_o to_o we_o for_o if_o it_o be_v of_o work_n it_o be_v not_o of_o grace_n but_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n if_o we_o be_v

in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n give_v thanks_o unto_o god_n and_o the_o father_n by_o he_o how_o when_o you_o pray_v pray_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o believe_v

through_o this_o chapter_n where_o the_o apostle_n treat_v so_o large_o of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o of_o his_o priestly-office_n as_o we_o be_v to_o live_v by_o faith_n and_o to_o be_v save_v by_o

there_o be_v no_o come_n to_o a_o holy_a god_n but_o by_o he_o by_o he_o we_o be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o verse_n 19_o as_o have_v be_v show_v and_o he_o be_v able_a to_o save_v to_o

have_v a_o further_a argument_n and_o demonstration_n give_v by_o the_o apostle_n to_o prove_v that_o jesus_n christ_n our_o great_a highpriest_n be_v far_o more_o excellent_a than_o the_o high-priest_n under_o the_o law_n and_o the_o argument_n be_v draw_v from_o his_o purity_n and_o their_o sinfulness_n his_o purity_n be_v holy_a harmless_a undefiled_a separate_a from_o sinner_n whereas_o the_o priest_n under_o the_o law_n they_o be_v guilty_a of_o sin_n and_o therefore_o they_o do_v offer_v sacrifice_n first_o for_o their_o own_o sin_n in_o verse_n 17._o but_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v one_o separate_v from_o sinner_n so_o that_o the_o argument_n lie_v thus_o that_o priest_n that_o highpriest_n pure_a and_o undefiled_a and_o have_v no_o sin_n in_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v more_o excellent_a than_o they_o that_o have_v sin_n and_o do_v offer_v sacrifice_n for_o their_o own_o sin_n i_o begin_v now_o with_o verse_n 26._o for_o such_o a_o highpriest_n become_v

that_o be_v not_o holy_a and_o harmless_a how_o shall_v he_o carry_v on_o the_o work_n of_o a_o highpriest_n how_o shall_v he_o save_v we_o from_o our_o sin_n how_o shall_v he_o bring_v we_o from_o
