The mysterie of the Gold THe Gold and pretious stones in the Temple signified the Deity of Christ for in him dwelt the fulnesse of the Deity 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 wholly and absolutely and in him was contained the Fountaine and treasure of all wisedome and knowledge Col. 2. The mysterie of the Cedar wood AS the Cedar Cypres and Olive wood was neither subiect to putrifaction nor possible to be deuoured with wormes so the humane nature of Christ was subiect to no corruption no putrifaction Psal 16. The mysterie of the Cherubims THe Temple also is a figure of the heauenly glory of euerlasting life to come where the Angels and Cherubims beeing ingrauen and pictured to the image of man do represent the congregation of the blessed Angels and Saints who in presence of the Lord sing a continuall Te Deum laudamus Apoc. 4. The two Cherubims placed vpon the Mercy seat in the holy Quire signifie the old and new Testament which containes the Doctrine of Christ and as their wings touched one another so the old new Testament were ioined together the end of the one the beginning of the other the one continued to the end of the first world the other shall continue to the end of the second both had relation to Christ to whom the ministerie of God was committed The mysterie of the golden Dore of the Temple CHrist is the dore of life by which we must enter into eternall happines Ioh. 10.14 the two dores signifie a twofold knowledge before we can enter into this gate that is of his Person and Office What the Vaile of the Temple signified THe Son of God our Lord Iesus Christ hanging vpon the altar of the Crosse is the true Vaile that is put betweene God and vs shadowing with his wounds and pretious bloud the multitude of our offences that so we may be made acceptable to his Father Heb. 10.

Heb. 9. represent as well our Sauior Christ as the hearts of the Faithfull for as in Christs breast was contained the doctrine both of the Law and Gospell so likewise is it in the Faithfull though not in that measure Hee was the true Manna that descended from heauen to giue light vnto the world Iohn 6. The Tables of the Law moue vs to mutuall loue and new obedience Aarons Rod flourishing with blossomes signifies the sweetnesse of the Gospel and the glory of our high Priest Iesus Christ of whom Aaron was a Type The mysterie of the golden Altar THe sacrificing altar in the Sanctuarie of the Temple wheron were foure golden hornes beeing made partly of Sittim wood and partly of Gold compassed about with a Crowne of gold represent the vnitie of the Humanitie and Deity in our Sauiour For as the wood naturally incorruptible was beautified with refulgent gold so the Humanity of Christ not capable of any putrifaction Psalme 16. being adorned with Celestial glorie of the Deity personally vnited to the Diuine Nature ascended vp into the Heauens and there sitteth at the right hand of his Father crowned with a crown of majesty in eternal happines Psa 8.

Neither ought they to be separated from Christ but by the light of their doctrine and sincere conuersation be a lanthorn vnto our feet Psal 119. that so their works may return to his glory and the good of his church And as all the branches were vnited into the body of the Candlestick so euery Minister and faithfull child of God ought to be vnited into the body of Christ without any schismaticall dissention or separation The floures and lillies denote the ornaments and graces of the holy Spirit which Christ hath bountifully bestowed vpon his Ministers The Lights and lamps do admonish all godly Ministers to a diligent care lest the light of Gods diuine word should either by mens traditions or carnal and philosophical opinions be either diminished or by little and little abolished but as often as such things happen with the sincere doctrine of the Gospel to be purged and preserued The mysterie of the golden Table THe golden Table wheron the Shew bread stood being compassed about with a pretious crown signifies the ministerie of the Gospell For the bread that is set before vs is Christ that Bread of Life which descended out of heauen Iohn 6. and hee by the ministry of the twelve Apostles is mystically offered vnto vs in the Sacrament of the Lords Supper that whosoeuer eateth thereof as they ought might haue eternal life The Frankincense that stood by the bread admonisheth vs that earnest prayers and godly actions are to be vsed in the time of the administring of the Lords supper For as Macarius saith If the diuel was as strong as mountaines yet at the prayers of the Saints he melteth as wax before the fire And S.
