and_o city_n jerusalem_n and_o country_n of_o judah_n that_o be_v restore_v by_o cyrus_n now_o whatever_o service_n that_o restoration_n as_o a_o type_n may_v perform_v to_o this_o vision_n yet_o that_o it_o can_v be_v the_o grand_a scope_n of_o it_o may_v be_v thus_o argue_v 1._o there_o be_v no_o reference_n to_o this_o vision_n to_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o pattern_n to_o any_o of_o the_o rule_n and_o law_n of_o it_o no_o particular_a account_n of_o the_o son_n of_o zadok_n among_o the_o priest_n no_o glory_n of_o god_n return_v to_o it_o no_o mention_n of_o the_o vision_n by_o the_o prophet_n haggai_n zechar_n malach_n or_o by_o ezra_n or_o nehemiah_n in_o that_o restoration_n as_o there_o be_v of_o the_o prophet_n jeremy_n of_o the_o seventy_o year_n captivity_n by_o dan._n c._n 9_o 1._o and_o by_o ezra_n c._n 1._o 1._o 2._o whereas_o this_o temple_n be_v to_o be_v the_o place_n of_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o sole_n of_o his_o foot_n for_o ever_o and_o to_o

there_o be_v no_o ombrage_n of_o the_o heal_n water_n as_o flow_v from_o the_o sanctuary_n or_o medicinal_a tree_n 2._o there_o be_v therefore_o much_o more_o reason_n to_o suppose_v the_o come_n of_o christ_n into_o this_o temple_n and_o draw_v it_o up_o into_o the_o spirituality_n of_o the_o christian_a temple_n church_n and_o worship_n be_v design_v by_o it_o till_o all_o the_o receive_v up_o
