apparel_n for_o as_o the_o man_n be_v such_o be_v his_o talk_n such_o be_v his_o clothing_n therefore_o the_o raiment_n do_v note_n of_o what_o conversation_n the_o priest_n ought_v to_o be_v whereupon_o it_o come_v that_o in_o the_o scripture_n we_o be_v bid_v to_o put_v on_o other_o clothing_n when_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v that_o we_o shall_v change_v our_o wicked_a conversation_n so_o that_o the_o very_a garment_n do_v partly_o instruct_v the_o priest_n what_o they_o have_v to_o do_v and_o what_o be_v seemly_a for_o they_o but_o now_o the_o time_n and_o course_n of_o this_o treatise_n invite_v i_o to_o speak_v office_n somewhat_o of_o the_o priest_n office_n their_o office_n do_v consist_v in_o many_o thing_n but_o especial_o in_o teach_v &_o instruct_v teach_v for_o the_o chief_a cause_n why_o the_o priest_n be_v ordain_v of_o god_n be_v to_o instruct_v the_o church_n in_o true_a piety_n and_o to_o teach_v the_o people_n the_o law_n of_o god_n for_o thus_o we_o read_v that_o the_o lord_n do_v say_v unto_o aaron_n thou_o &_o thy_o son_n that_o be_v with_o thou_o shall_v drink_v neither_o wine_n nor_o strong_a drink_n when_o you_o enter_v into_o the_o tabernacle_n of_o witness_n least_o happy_o you_o die_v let_v it_o be_v a_o everlasting_a ordinance_n among_o your_o posterity_n that_o you_o may_v put_v disference_n both_o betwixt_o holy_a &_o unholy_a &_o betwixt_o clean_a and_o unclean_a &_o that_o you_o may_v teach_v the_o son_n of_o israel_n all_o the_o statute_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v speak_v unto_o they_o by_o the_o ministry_n of_o moses_n levit._n 10._o the_o same_o law_n do_v ezechiel_n in_o as_o many_o word_n almost_o rehearse_v in_o the_o 44._o chapter_n of_o his_o prophecy_n and_o malachi_n declare_v it_o also_o as_o it_o be_v to_o be_v seeae_n in_o the_o second_o of_o his_o prophecy_n they_o therefore_o be_v utter_o deceive_v which_o think_v that_o the_o levitical_a priest_n be_v appoint_v only_o for_o to_o kill_v the_o sacrifice_n moreover_o the_o lord_n do_v every_o where_o in_o his_o law_n minister_v matter_n for_o the_o levitical_a priesy_n to_o instruct_v his_o people_n in_o and_o that_o matter_n be_v not_o the_o heathenish_a philosophy_n the_o edict_n of_o king_n or_o decree_n of_o senator_n but_o the_o very_a word_n of_o god_n deliver_v to_o they_o by_o god_n himself_o and_o that_o this_o doctrine_n may_v be_v the_o more_o conunodious_o utter_v to_o the_o people_n the_o priest_n appoint_v certain_a holy_a day_n wherein_o the_o people_n shall_v assemble_v together_o to_o hear_v they_o preach_v the_o word_n of_o god._n the_o next_o point_n of_o their_o duty_n after_o teach_v be_v to_o bless_v the_o people_n bless_v that_o blessing_n be_v not_o free_a for_o every_o priest_n to_o use_v as_o he_o list_v but_o be_v bind_v to_o a_o certain_a form_n of_o word_n very_o solemn_o utter_v which_o be_v thus_o express_v in_o the_o 6._o of_o number_n ●_o and_o the_o lord_n speak_v unto_o moses_n say_v speak_v unto_o aaron_n &_o his_o son_n say_v on_o this_o wise_a you_o shall_v bless_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n and_o say_v unto_o they_o the_o lord_n bless_v thou_o &_o keep_v thou_o the_o lord_n show_v his_o face_n unto_o thou_o and_o be_v merciful_a unto_o thou_o the_o lord_n lift_v up_o his_o countenance_n upon_o thou_o and_o give_v thou_o peace_n this_o manner_n of_o blessing_n do_v they_o use_v undoubted_o in_o their_o holy_a assembly_n esspecial_o at_o the_o break_n up_o of_o the_o congregation_n when_o the_o people_n do_v depart_v in_o a_o other_o place_n it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n do_v bless_v but_o here_o that_o aaron_n and_o his_o son_n do_v blesie_v the_o people_n whereupon_o we_o have_v to_o note_v that_o god_n do_v work_v inward_o and_o perform_v in_o the_o faithful_a what_o soever_o the_o priest_n in_o that_o form_n of_o blessing_n do_v wish_v unto_o the_o people_n so_o that_o still_o to_o bless_v be_v the_o only_a and_o proper_a work_n of_o god_n alone_o and_o therefore_o very_o significant_o after_o that_o solemn_a blessing_n utter_v by_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o priest_n god_n do_v add_v and_o they_o shall_v call_v or_o put_v my_o name_n over_o or_o upon_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n and_o i_o will_v bless_v they_o the_o priest_n therefore_o do_v lay_v before_o the_o people_n the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n they_o commend_v unto_o they_o the_o mighty_a power_n of_o his_o godhead_n and_o show_v they_o that_o all_o goodness_n do_v flow_v from_o god_n teach_v they_o how_o they_o may_v obtain_v it_o through_o faith_n in_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o bless_a séed_n that_o bless_v all_o that_o call_v upon_o his_o name_n now_o in_o this_o solemn_a blessing_n six_o principal_a point_n be_v chief_o contain_v first_o the_o priest_n say_v the_o lord_n bless_v thou_o that_o be_v the_o lord_n bestow_v upon_o thou_o whatsoever_o belong_v to_o the_o safety_n of_o thy_o body_n and_o soul_n secondary_o he_o say_v the_o lord_n keep_v thou_o for_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o receive_v good_a thing_n at_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n unless_o they_o be_v preserve_v by_o his_o power_n and_o not_o take_v from_o we_o by_o his_o wrathful_a indignation_n nor_o lose_v again_o by_o our_o own_o negligence_n three_o he_o say_v the_o lord_n show_v thou_o his_o face_n or_o the_o lord_n make_v his_o face_n shine_v upon_o thou_o the_o lord_n do_v they_o show_v we_o his_o love_a face_n when_o after_o his_o anger_n he_o show_v we_o his_o favour_n and_o do_v become_v good_a and_o gracious_a to_o we_o and_o therefore_o in_o the_o four_o clause_n do_v follow_v a_o more_o plain_a exposition_n where_o the_o priest_n say_v the_o lord_n be_v merciful_a unto_o thou_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v the_o lord_n be_v always_o gentle_a and_o favourable_a unto_o thou_o in_o all_o that_o thou_o go_v about_o either_o in_o word_n or_o deed_n the_o five_o blessing_n be_v the_o lord_n liftupp_v his_o countenance_n upon_o thou_o now_o the_o lord_n lift_v up_o his_o countenance_n when_o he_o look_v upon_o we_o when_o he_o watch_v over_o we_o and_o do_v direct_a and_o guide_v our_o way_n the_o last_o desire_n be_v peace_n which_o be_v take_v for_o the_o salvation_n and_o chief_a goodness_n that_o happen_v to_o mankind_n although_o in_o a_o other_o sense_n it_o be_v put_v for_o the_o contrary_a to_o war_n or_o battle_n and_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o conscience_n be_v no_o small_a felicity_n to_o mortal_a man_n these_o be_v the_o good_a thing_n that_o the_o priest_n do_v wish_v to_o light_v upon_o the_o people_n teach_v they_o withal_o to_o beseech_v the_o lord_n for_o those_o blessing_n with_o ardent_a prayer_n &_o earnest_a supplication_n even_o till_o this_o day_n there_o do_v remain_v the_o psalm_n that_o the_o priest_n do_v make_v for_o the_o people_n sake_n to_o singe_v for_o after_o that_o david_n have_v bring_v music_n into_o the_o temple_n than_o do_v the_o play_v upon_o musical_a instrument_n with_o sweet_a melody_n and_o sing_v of_o psalm_n begin_v to_o be_v take_v for_o a_o office_n among_o the_o priest_n touch_v this_o music_n use_v in_o the_o

course_n moreover_o the_o priest_n be_v command_v priest_n to_o minister_v the_o sacrament_n and_o to_o sacrifice_v for_o they_o do_v circumcise_v the_o infant_n their_o office_n be_v to_o see_v the_o passeover_n eat_v and_o to_o offer_v sacrifice_n of_o sundry_a sort_n unto_o the_o lord_n of_o which_o i_o will_v speak_v hereafter_o in_o place_n convenient_a and_o that_o they_o may_v more_o

after_o that_o i_o have_v brief_o declare_v unto_o you_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o lord_n his_o incarnation_n man_n be_v in_o a_o miserable_a take_n incarnation_n and_o all_o mankind_n shall_v utter_o have_v perish_v for_o sin_n which_o we_o have_v all_o draw_v from_o the_o first_o man_n adam_n for_o the_o reward_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n we_o that_o be_v to_o be_v cast_v

that_o be_v sever_v for_o where_o a_o mediator_n mediator_n be_v there_o also_o must_v needs_o be_v discord_n and_o party_n the_o party_n be_v god_n and_o man_n the_o cause_n of_o this_o discord_n be_v sin_n now_o the_o office_n of_o the_o mediator_n be_v to_o bring_v to_o agreement_n the_o party_n disagree_v which_o very_o can_v be_v do_v unless_o that_o sin_n the_o cause_n of_o this_o

chapter_n to_o the_o hebrew_n the_o mediator_n ought_v therefore_o to_o take_v on_o he_o our_o flesh_n and_o blood_n that_o he_o may_v both_o die_v &_o shed_v his_o blood_n furthermore_o it_o be_v needful_a that_o this_o advocate_n or_o mediator_n be_v indifferent_o common_a to_o both_o the_o party_n who_o he_o have_v to_o reconcile_v wherefore_o our_o lord_n christ_n ought_v to_o be_v very_a

than_o can_v he_o not_o have_v have_v access_n to_o god_n which_o be_v a_o consume_a fire_n wherefore_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v both_o god_n and_o man_n be_v a_o fit_a mediator_n for_o both_o the_o party_n which_o thing_n the_o apostle_n witness_v say_v one_o god_n and_o one_o mediator_n of_o god_n and_o man_n the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n who_o give_v himself_o the_o price_n of_o
