their_o very_a oblation_n this_o be_v the_o first_o and_o great_a blessing_n we_o receive_v 2._o hence_o we_o conclude_v in_o the_o second_o place_n that_o every_o communicant_a who_o be_v right_o

we_o gain_v a_o interest_n in_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n death_n since_o we_o be_v reckon_v to_o participate_v of_o christ_n body_n and_o blood_n since_o we_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o cross_n as_o the_o jew_n be_v of_o the_o altar_n it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o we_o have_v all_o the_o benefit_n of_o our_o lord_n passion_n and_o so_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v assure_v of_o the_o

will_v more_o evident_o yet_o appear_v if_o we_o consider_v 1._o the_o correspondency_n of_o this_o feast_n to_o the_o ancient_a sacrifical_a banquet_n in_o general_a 2._o the_o analogy_n of_o it_o to_o those_o feast_n which_o be_v use_v after_o sin-offering_n in_o particular_a and_o three_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n at_o the_o institution_n of_o this_o rite_n 1._o first_o than_o it_o be_v already_o prove_v that_o god_n order_v his_o people_n to_o feast_n upon_o part_n of_o their_o sacrifice_n be_v a_o sign_n and_o token_n to_o they_o that_o they_o be_v in_o

that_o as_o the_o eat_v of_o sacrifical_a feast_n be_v a_o evidence_n unto_o the_o jew_n that_o they_o be_v benefit_v by_o the_o oblation_n and_o be_v in_o god_n favour_n so_o the_o partake_n of_o

after_o 2._o but_o for_o the_o further_a confirmation_n of_o this_o matter_n we_o be_v to_o note_v that_o this_o be_v not_o a_o feast_n upon_o a_o sacrifice_n at_o large_a but_o a_o feast_n upon_o a_o
