no_o reflection_n at_o all_o upon_o his_o truth_n and_o faithfulness_n if_o the_o messiah_n have_v be_v quite_o another_o manner_n of_o person_n than_o the_o type_n hold_v forth_o but_o to_o admit_v

so_o the_o apostle_n heb._n 10.1_o they_o be_v a_o shodow_n of_o good_a thing_n to_o come_v he_o do_v not_o limit_n or_o restrain_v they_o to_o the_o messiahs_n person_n only_o as_o the_o cherubim_n be_v type_n not_o direct_o of_o christ_n but_o of_o the_o angel_n that_o stand_v before_o the_o lord_n and_o minister_n to_o he_o and_o to_o his_o people_n hence_o before_o the_o gospel_n there_o be_v no_o gospel_n type_n before_o the_o first_o promulgation_n of_o it_o genes_n 3._o there_o can_v be_v no_o type_n of_o gospel_n blessing_n there_o be_v some_o thing_n extant_a before_o which_o be_v

life_n by_o christ_n that_o bless_a seed_n yea_o as_o they_o have_v type_n of_o christ_n person_n and_o of_o his_o spiritual_a and_o save_a benefit_n so_o they_o have_v type_n even_o of_o all_o new-testament_n dispensation_n our_o very_a sacrament_n be_v shadow_v forth_o by_o they_o as_o baptism_n by_o circumcision_n and_o by_o their_o pass_v through_o the_o red_a sea_n and_o the_o lord_n

ceremonial_a uncleanness_n as_o the_o leprosy_n for_o instance_n be_v a_o type_n of_o what_o neither_o of_o christ_n nor_o of_o his_o benefit_n but_o of_o our_o natural_a pollution_n so_o they_o have_v a_o type_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n viz._n hagar_n and_o ishmael_n they_o have_v a_o type_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n viz._n babylon_n so_o antiochus_n may_v pass_v for_o a_o type_n of_o antichrist_n doeg_n and_o achitophel_n of_o judas_n pharaoh_n for_o a_o type_n of_o the_o devil_n sodom_n and_o gomorrah_n for_o a_o type_n of_o hell_n for_o as_o the_o type_n look_v chief_o and_o principal_o at_o christ_n and_o his_o benefit_n in_o the_o clear_a and_o full_a exhibition_n and_o communication_n of_o they_o under_o the_o gospel_n so_o they_o represent_v other_o

it_o be_v so_o in_o all_o similitude_n it_o be_v a_o rule_n in_o reason_n there_o be_v a_o mixture_n of_o consentaneity_n and_o dissentaneity_n or_o else_o instead_o of_o similitude_n there_o will_v

shall_v agree_v in_o all_o thing_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n though_o he_o make_v adam_n a_o type_n of_o christ_n who_o he_o call_v the_o second_o adam_n yet_o he_o show_v the_o disparity_n also_o
