in_o three_o thing_n 1._o as_o in_o the_o priesthood_n of_o melchisedec_n there_o be_v no_o respect_n have_v of_o his_o parentage_n or_o family_n for_o he_o be_v say_v to_o be_v without_o father_n

2._o that_o both_o be_v perpetual_a priest_n for_o ever_o melchisedec_n in_o a_o umbratilous_a and_o figurative_a way_n but_o christ_n solid_o and_o real_o 3._o as_o melchisedec_n in_o his_o priesthood_n have_v no_o predecessor_n nor_o successor_n so_o neither_o have_v christ_n in_o his_o 4._o now_o consider_v how_o great_a this_o man_n be_v here_n begin_v another_o part_n of_o the_o chapter_n wherein_o the_o author_n show_v how_o far_o melchisedec_n surpass_v in_o dignity_n the_o leviticall_a priest_n that_o from_o thence_o it_o may_v appear_v how_o far_o more_o worthy_a that_o

person_n than_o the_o leviticall_a priest_n he_o prove_v by_o three_o reason_n 1._o because_o abraham_n give_v he_o tithe_n 2._o because_o he_o bless_v abraham_n 3._o because_o hereupon_o the_o scripture_n testify_v that_o he_o live_v for_o ever_o he_o call_v therefore_o upon_o the_o hebrew_n to_o consider_v this_o man_n that_o he_o may_v stir_v they_o up_o to_o ponder_v and_o weigh_v the_o dignity_n of_o melchisedec_n q.d._n i_o have_v brief_o declare_v unto_o you_o from_o scripture_n how_o far_o she_o speak_v or_o be_v silent_a concern_v melchisedec_n now_o consider_v and_o ponder_v the_o particular_n well_o that_o thence_o you_o may_v know_v how_o far_o he_o excel_v the_o leviticall_a priest_n unto_o who_o even_o the_o patriarch_n abraham_n give_v the_o ten_o of_o the_o spoil_n the_o dignity_n of_o melchisedec_n above_o the_o leviticall_a priest_n appear_v first_o from_o this_o that_o even_o abraham_n give_v he_o tithe_n the_o particle_n even_o may_v be_v refer_v to_o abraham_n and_o than_o it_o seem_v add_v to_o exaggerate_v and_o amplify_v the_o dignity_n of_o melchisedec_n from_o the_o person_n of_o abraham_n that_o not_o some_o vulgar_a person_n but_o even_o abraham_n himself_o give_v he_o tithe_n and_o to_o this_o opinion_n it_o elegant_o agree_v that_o to_o the_o name_n of_o abraham_n be_v add_v the_o title_n of_o patriarch_n and_o that_o with_o the_o article_n the_o the_o patriarch_n abraham_n for_o when_o we_o will_v amplify_v the_o honour_n of_o a_o person_n we_o put_v a_o addition_n of_o title_n to_o his_o name_n or_o as_o the_o order_n of_o the_o word_n require_v the_o particle_n even_o may_v be_v refer_v to_o the_o tithe_n and_o than_o it_o aggerate_v and_o amplify_v the_o dignity_n of_o melchisedec_n from_o the_o gift_n of_o abraham_n that_o abraham_n give_v he_o tithe_n which_o be_v no_o vulgar_a present_n but_o a_o solemn_a and_o sacred_a portion_n so_o that_o the_o great_a dignity_n of_o melchisedec_n be_v illustrate_v and_o magnify_v from_o two_o particular_n as_o well_o from_o the_o person_n of_o abraham_n who_o be_v the_o patriarch_n as_o from_o the_o gift_n of_o abraham_n which_o be_v a_o ten_o of_o the_o spoil_n the_o article_n the_o prefix_a before_o patriarch_n do_v not_o evince_v that_o abraham_n only_o be_v a_o patriarch_n and_o no_o other_o man_n so_o but_o it_o note_n that_o he_o be_v some_o principal_a and_o renown_a patriarch_n as_o indeed_o he_o be_v for_o he_o be_v the_o father_n and_o prince_n of_o the_o patriarck_n and_o the_o first_o founder_n of_o the_o jewish_a nation_n for_o who_o sake_n the_o jew_n become_v a_o nation_n because_o they_o be_v the_o seed_n which_o god_n promise_v he_o to_o be_v multiply_v unto_o he_o now_o from_o all_o this_o that_o so_o great_a a_o person_n as_o abraham_n the_o father_n and_o founder_n of_o the_o jewish_a nation_n shall_v give_v a_o tithe_n to_o melchisedec_n from_o all_o this_o i_o say_v appear_v the_o great_a dignity_n of_o melchisedec_n for_o he_o that_o receive_v tithe_n be_v great_a than_o he_o that_o give_v they_o and_o therefore_o melchisedec_n must_v needs_o be_v great_a than_o abraham_n who_o yet_o be_v the_o great_a of_o all_o the_o jewish_a nation_n and_o consequent_o melchisedec_n must_v needs_o be_v great_a also_o than_o all_o the_o jewish_a nation_n 5._o and_o very_o they_o that_o be_v the_o son_n of_o levi_n he_n

may_v assert_v his_o doctrine_n and_o especial_o that_o he_o may_v testify_v himself_o to_o be_v christ_n and_o the_o son_n of_o god_n what_o possible_a suspicion_n can_v this_o leave_n of_o the_o least_o fraud_n or_o falsehood_n for_o if_o christ_n have_v be_v conscious_a to_o himself_o of_o any_o fraud_n or_o falsehood_n will_v he_o have_v cast_v himself_o upon_o so_o infamous_a and_o fearful_a a_o death_n and_o endure_v it_o with_o such_o patiency_n and_o constancy_n of_o mind_n if_o he_o have_v a_o intent_n to_o get_v himself_o a_o name_n by_o lie_n and_o deceit_n will_v he_o

what_o can_v he_o else_o hope_v for_o if_o he_o be_v a_o impostor_n but_o if_o christ_n be_v no_o way_n conscious_a to_o himself_o of_o any_o fraud_n or_o falsehood_n but_o suffer_v death_n to_o assert_v his_o doctrine_n who_o see_v not_o but_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v void_a of_o all_o offence_n for_o if_o his_o doctrine_n be_v false_a it_o must_v needs_o be_v feign_v of_o himself_o for_o he_o public_o profess_v that_o he_o have_v see_v the_o father_n have_v receive_v command_n from_o he_o and_o be_v send_v from_o he_o into_o the_o world_n that_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o the_o king_n of_o god_n people_n which_o god_n have_v promise_v long_o before_o now_o if_o these_o thing_n be_v false_a how_o can_v christ_n be_v ignorant_a of_o their_o falsehood_n but_o if_o he_o know_v they_o to_o be_v false_a whence_o can_v he_o have_v such_o a_o contempt_n of_o death_n for_o the_o assert_v of_o they_o whence_o can_v he_o have_v such_o a_o invincible_a constancy_n and_o courage_n of_o mind_n see_v therefore_o we_o have_v jesus_n a_o surety_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n attest_v with_o so_o many_o document_n of_o the_o truth_n shall_v we_o doubt_v to_o join_v our_o

our_o name_n up_o to_o god_n and_o his_o righteousness_n some_o man_n may_v marvel_v why_o the_o author_n treat_v of_o christ_n priesthood_n both_o before_o and_o after_o shall_v sudden_o call_v he_o the_o surety_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n and_o not_o the_o priest_n of_o it_o why_o do_v he_o not_o say_v by_o so_o much_o be_v jesus_n make_v a_o priest_n of_o a_o better_a testament_n for_o the_o whole_a context_n of_o the_o chapter_n seem_v to_o require_v this_o it_o be_v very_o credible_a that_o in_o the_o word_n surety_n the_o priesthood_n of_o christ_n be_v also_o understand_v for_o it_o be_v the_o part_n of_o a_o surety_n not_o only_o to_o promise_v something_o in_o the_o name_n of_o another_o and_o to_o interpose_v his_o faith_n for_o another_o but_o also_o if_o the_o cause_n require_v to_o perform_v the_o thing_n he_o promise_v in_o another_o name_n and_o among_o man_n there_o be_v cause_n if_o the_o principal_n perform_v it_o not_o for_o who_o the_o surety_n interpose_v but_o here_o it_o proceed_v upon_o a_o contrary_a cause_n for_o the_o former_a can_v here_o take_v place_n namely_o because_o he_o for_o who_o christ_n interpose_v as_o a_o surety_n do_v perform_v his_o promise_n to_o we_o by_o christ_n himself_o in_o which_o action_n the_o priesthood_n of_o christ_n do_v chief_o consist_v for_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v a_o priest_n do_v now_o in_o heaven_n nothing_o more_o intentive_o then_o to_o perform_v god_n promise_n unto_o we_o i._n he_o take_v away_o all_o punishment_n of_o our_o sin_n he_o endowe_n we_o with_o god_n gift_n and_o grace_n and_o at_o last_o translate_v we_o into_o heaven_n 23._o and_o they_o true_o be_v many_o priest_n because_o they_o be_v not_o suffer_v to_o continue_v by_o reason_n of_o death_n here_o he_o bring_v a_o new_a difference_n between_o christ_n a_o priest_n after_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedec_n and_o the_o priest_n after_o aaron_n order_n and_o withal_o prove_v he_o far_o more_o excellent_a than_o they_o and_o this_o difference_n be_v that_o they_o be_v many_o but_o christ_n be_v but_o one_o himself_n only_o the_o reason_n of_o both_o be_v take_v from_o the_o 16._o and_o 17._o verse_n because_o

for_o see_v he_o live_v for_o ever_o and_o have_v no_o successor_n therefore_o the_o priesthood_n do_v always_o remain_v in_o his_o person_n for_o because_o his_o person_n be_v unchangeable_a and_o
