who_o god_n dwell_v as_o to_o the_o former_a it_o be_v observable_a that_o god_n dwelling_n in_o christian_n be_v sometime_o join_v with_o the_o mention_n of_o their_o be_v his_o temple_n as_o you_o may_v see_v 1_o cor._n 3.16_o 2_o cor._n 6.16_o eph._n 2.21_o 22._o now_o from_o hence_o it_o be_v obvious_a to_o gather_v that_o these_o phrase_n allude_v to_o what_o have_v be_v say_v of_o god_n dwelling_n in_o the_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n and_o before_o that_o in_o the_o tabernacle_n and_o therefore_o that_o they_o will_v be_v more_o easy_o explain_v by_o observe_v the_o use_n of_o they_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o to_o this_o way_n we_o be_v plain_o direct_v in_o the_o new_a as_o you_o will_v see_v by_o consult_v 2_o cor._n 6.16_o where_o the_o apostle_n cite_v a_o place_n out_o of_o the_o old_a contain_v god_n promise_n to_o dwell_v among_o the_o israelite_n first_o of_o all_o the_o sheckinah_n or_o habitation_n of_o god_n be_v in_o the_o holy_a place_n within_o the_o

dwelling_n as_o we_o may_v see_v by_o compare_v david_n intimation_n of_o his_o purpose_n to_o build_v a_o house_n for_o god_n with_o god_n message_n to_o he_o upon_o that_o occasion_n i_o dwell_v say_v david_n in_o a_o house_n of_o cedar_n and_o the_o ark_n of_o god_n dwell_v within_o curtain_n 2_o sam._n 7.2_o but_o the_o prophet_n word_n to_o he_o be_v these_o thus_o say_v the_o lord_n shall_v thou_o build_v i_o a_o house_n for_o i_o to_o dwell_v in_o or_o for_o my_o ark_n whereas_o to_o this_o day_n i_o have_v walk_v in_o a_o tabernacle_n vers_fw-la 5._o thus_o the_o place_n within_o the_o veil_n where_o the_o ark_n be_v while_o the_o tabernacle_n stand_v and_o the_o oracle_n into_o which_o it_o be_v carry_v after_o the_o build_n of_o the_o temple_n be_v call_v the_o most_o holy_a place_n the_o place_n where_o god_n vouchsafe_v to_o be_v present_a in_o a_o peculiar_a manner_n the_o symbol_n of_o his_o presence_n there_o be_v the_o cherubim_n or_o angel_n under_o which_o the_o ark_n be_v place_v and_o thus_o we_o find_v in_o jacob_n vision_n that_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n be_v signify_v by_o a_o appearance_n of_o angel_n gen._n 28.12_o and_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o appearance_n of_o the_o angel_n to_o the_o shepherd_n be_v describe_v by_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o lord_n shine_v round_o about_o they_o luke_n 2.9_o for_o this_o reason_n it_o be_v that_o god_n be_v so_o often_o call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o he_o that_o dwell_v between_o the_o cherubim_n who_o be_v please_v thereby_o to_o signify_v his_o presence_n in_o the_o most_o holy_a place_n but_o that_o which_o i_o chief_o aim_v at_o be_v this_o that_o god_n dwelling_n in_o this_o place_n be_v a_o testimony_n of_o his_o peculiar_a mercy_n and_o kindness_n towards_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n and_o that_o he_o will_v bless_v and_o prosper_v they_o if_o they_o will_v keep_v his_o commandment_n and_o for_o this_o reason_n the_o ark_n be_v call_v the_o ark_n of_o the_o covenant_n between_o god_n and_o they_o for_o first_o the_o table_n of_o the_o commandment_n which_o they_o be_v to_o keep_v be_v lay_v up_o in_o the_o ark_n and_o then_o the_o blessing_n which_o god_n will_v bestow_v upon_o they_o be_v signify_v by_o the_o ark_n stand_v under_o the_o mercy-seat_n which_o be_v cover_v with_o the_o wing_n of_o the_o cherubim_n between_o which_o god_n be_v so_o often_o say_v to_o dwell_v so_o that_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n be_v there_o exhibit_v as_o it_o be_v sit_v upon_o a_o throne_n of_o mercy_n to_o dispense_v his_o favour_n and_o blessing_n among_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n and_o to_o this_o

purpose_n it_o be_v observable_a that_o god_n dwell_n thus_o in_o the_o most_o holy_a place_n be_v call_v his_o dwell_n among_o the_o israelite_n thus_o when_o he_o command_v the_o build_n of_o the_o ark_n let_v they_o say_v he_o make_v i_o a_o sanctuary_n that_o i_o may_v dwell_v among_o they_o exod._n 25.8_o and_o after_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o sanctify_v the_o tabernacle_n with_o his_o

towards_o they_o be_v mean_v in_o this_o promise_n appear_v by_o the_o follow_a word_n and_o they_o shall_v know_v that_o i_o be_o the_o lord_n their_o god_n that_o bring_v they_o forth_o out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n i._n e._n he_o will_v so_o manifest_v his_o power_n in_o protect_v and_o defend_v they_o from_o all_o their_o enemy_n that_o they_o shall_v know_v he_o have_v the_o same_o care_n of_o they_o which_o he_o show_v in_o deliver_v they_o from_o the_o egyptian_a bondage_n but_o this_o be_v yet_o more_o clear_o signify_v by_o those_o word_n in_o all_o place_n where_o i_o record_v my_o name_n i_o will_v come_v unto_o thou_o and_o bless_v thou_o exod._n 20.24_o for_o the_o name_n of_o god_n as_o we_o find_v in_o 2_o sam._n 6.2_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n that_o

danger_n they_o begin_v their_o prayer_n for_o deliverance_n by_o invoke_v the_o lord_n god_n of_o israel_n that_o dwell_v between_o the_o cherubim_n 2_o king_n 19.15_o and_o psal._n 80.1_o by_o all_o which_o it_o appear_v that_o god_n dwell_v there_o signify_v the_o peculiar_a favour_n which_o he_o have_v towards_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n before_o all_o other_o people_n and_o according_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o the_o scripture_n do_v use_v to_o express_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n among_o they_o when_o they_o be_v punish_v for_o their_o sin_n not_o by_o dwell_v with_o they_o but_o by_o visit_v they_o which_o you_o know_v be_v a_o word_n that_o do_v not_o imply_v continuance_n and_o long_a abode_n as_o the_o other_o do_v and_o be_v therefore_o much_o fit_a than_o that_o to_o
