such_o a_o one_o who_o with_o special_a authority_n and_o power_n do_v execute_v some_o charge_n as_o the_o legal_a high_a priest_n in_o the_o tabernacle_n have_v the_o chief_a authority_n and_o

chapter_n 11.10_o 3._o for_o every_o high_a priest_n be_v ordain_v to_o offer_v gift_n and_o sacrifice_n he_o prove_v that_o christ_n our_o high_a priest_n be_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o sanctuary_n because_o he_o be_v ordain_v to_o offer_v gift_n and_o sacrifice_n for_o this_o function_n be_v natural_a to_o the_o office_n of_o a_o priest_n and_o he_o that_o offer_v gift_n and_o sacrifice_n must_v needs_o be_v the_o minister_n of_o a_o sanctuary_n wherefore_o it_o be_v of_o necessity_n this_o man_n have_v somewhat_o also_o to_o offer_v the_o sense_n of_o these_o word_n be_v not_o so_o to_o be_v take_v as_o to_o leave_v a_o scruple_n in_o we_o as_o if_o christ_n have_v only_o somewhat_o that_o he_o may_v offer_v and_o yet_o we_o may_v doubt_v whether_o he_o will_v offer_v or_o must_v offer_v or_o do_v indeed_o offer_v but_o that_o according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o his_o office_n he_o do_v actual_o offer_v for_o in_o this_o sense_n we_o often_o say_v i_o have_v something_o to_o give_v or_o to_o say_v unto_o you_o i._o i_o will_v or_o must_v give_v or_o say_v something_o unto_o you_o from_o these_o word_n of_o the_o author_n it_o be_v most_o manifest_a that_o christ_n do_v now_o offer_v in_o heaven_n for_o as_o the_o author_n will_v show_v afterward_o he_o offer_v himself_o too_o god_n for_o he_o prove_v as_o we_o have_v say_v that_o christ_n do_v minister_v in_o the_o heavenly_a sanctuary_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o precedent_n and_o subsequent_a passage_n and_o this_o he_o prove_v from_o hence_o because_o every_o priest_n and_o therefore_o christ_n be_v ordain_v to_o offer_v gift_n and_o sacrifice_n and_o therefore_o if_o he_o will_v perform_v his_o office_n he_o must_v indeed_o offer_v which_o if_o he_o do_v than_o it_o follow_v that_o he_o be_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o sanctuary_n 4._o for_o if_o be_v be_v on_o earth_n he_o shall_v not_o be_v a_o priest_n here_o he_o confirm_v the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o second_o verse_n that_o christ_n be_v a_o minister_n not_o of_o the_o umbratilous_a and_o terrene_a sanctuary_n but_o of_o the_o true_a and_o heavenly_a because_o if_o he_o be_v on_o earth_n he_o shall_v not_o be_v a_o priest_n at_o all_o hence_o it_o appear_v that_o christ_n be_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o heavenly_a sanctuary_n and_o do_v offer_v unto_o god_n there_o whence_o it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o christ_n while_o he_o be_v upon_o earth_n do_v not_o finish_v his_o perfect_a expiatory_a offering_n whereof_o the_o author_n treat_v in_o this_o epistle_n for_o can_v he_o perform_v and_o finish_v it_o be_v out_o of_o his_o proper_a sanctuary_n which_o be_v heaven_n see_v that_o there_o be_v priest_n that_o offer_v gift_n according_a to_o the_o law_n he_o give_v here_o a_o reason_n why_o christ_n shall_v not_o be_v a_o priest_n if_o he_o mini_v on_o earth_n because_o there_o be_v already_o other_o priest_n ordain_v of_o god_n to_o minister_v on_o earth_n and_o to_o offer_v gift_n of_o who_o number_n christ_n be_v none_o nor_o can_v be_v as_o be_v show_v in_o the_o former_a chapter_n these_o terrene_a priest_n be_v say_v to_o offer_v according_a to_o the_o law_n because_o the_o law_n have_v grant_v they_o only_o this_o right_a and_o privilege_n that_o no_o other_o person_n beside_o themselves_o without_o breach_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v usurp_v the_o office_n of_o offer_v upon_o earth_n or_o minister_a in_o the_o earthly_a sanctuary_n 5._o who_o serve_v unto_o the_o example_n and_o shadow_n of_o heavenly_a thing_n in_o these_o word_n either_o the_o author_n give_v a_o reason_n why_o christ_n if_o he_o be_v on_o earth_n can_v not_o be_v a_o priest_n namely_o because_o those_o priest_n who_o offer_v here_o on_o earth_n serve_v but_o for_o a_o shadow_n of_o heavenly_a thing_n but_o christ_n our_o high_a priest_n must_v not_o serve_v for_o such_o a_o shadow_n or_o else_o he_o illustrate_v from_o the_o contrary_a that_o christ_n be_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o true_a tabernacle_n but_o the_o legal_a priest_n do_v only_o serve_v as_o pattern_n and_o shadow_n of_o the_o heavenly_a sanctuary_n by_o heavenly_a thing_n he_o mean_v the_o sanctuary_n and_o holy_a function_n wherein_o christ_n do_v minister_v in_o heaven_n as_o moses_n be_v admonish_v of_o god_n when_o he_o be_v about_o to_o make_v the_o tabernacle_n for_o see_v say_v he_o that_o thou_o make_v all_o thing_n according_a to_o the_o pattern_n show_v to_o thou_o in_o the_o mount_n he_o prove_v from_o a_o testimony_n of_o scripture_n that_o the_o ancient_a legal_a high_a priest_n serve_v but_o as_o a_o pattern_n and_o shadow_n of_o the_o true_a and_o heavenly_a sanctuary_n and_o he_o cite_v the_o word_n wherein_o moses_n be_v command_v to_o make_v that_o ancient_a tabernacle_n and_o all_o
