Sam. 2.4 Now Christ was the trewe high priest enduring for euer 1. Reg. 45. much more excellent then the priests of the law Heb. 7.24 and 8.6 Act. 3.22 He was also that excellent prophet commaunded to be heard in al things Lastly he is the eternall king to whome God gaue the throne of his father Dauid Luk. 1.32.33 to raigne ouer the house of Iacob for euer of whose kingdome shall be no end Christ then hauing in himselfe alone al those dignities of King Priest and Prophet at once together to the which other were annoynted seuerally someone some another was therefore by a certaine kinde of excellencie called 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 that is the annoynted The Law Priests Prophets and Kings were annoynted with materiall holy oyle but Christ with the spirituall oyle of the holy Ghost which in the 45. Psalme is called the oile of gladnes God hath annointed thee with the oyle of gladnes aboue thy fellowes that is with the holy Ghost which therefore in the first Epistle of Iohn the second chapter the 20. and 22. verses is called an oyntment by a translation taken from the annoyntings of the Law Yee haue an oyntment from him that is holie This spirituall annoynting of Christ is spoken of by Esay in his 61. chapter the first verse The spirit of the Lord is vppon mee therefore hath hee annoynted mee Hee hath sent me to preach good tydinges vnto the poore Clemens Alexandrinus hereof touching Christ his annoynting hath this saying 1. Strom. Our Lord Christ the holy of holies who came and fulfilled Vision and Prophet was annoynted in the flesh with the spirit of his father Therfore those materiall annoyntings of the law were nothing els but tipes and figures of this spiritual annoynting of Christ The holie of holies That is the most holie Christ was endued with the holie Ghost without measure Iohn 3.34 Euen a verie fountaine of holinesse of whose fulnesse wee are all made holie Christ Iesus saith Paul is made vnto vs sanctification Hereof in the first of Luke 1.
