the_o administration_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v of_o thing_n which_o be_v of_o themselves_o of_o several_a nature_n some_o be_v ceremonial_a as_o the_o sacrifice_n their_o temple_n their_o tabernacle_n their_o altar_n and_o such_o like_a some_o be_v moral_a as_o their_o prayer_n repentance_n reformation_n and_o all_o the_o duty_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n for_o the_o ceremony_n that_o they_o be_v type_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o cease_v by_o the_o come_n of_o the_o substance_n christ_n himself_o be_v general_o acknowledge_v only_o some_o attribute_n unto_o they_o no_o efficacy_n at_o all_o but_o only_o a_o shadow_a out_o of_o christ_n and_o his_o benefit_n who_o be_v to_o come_v other_o say_v they_o have_v a_o typical_a carnal_a and_o temporal_a efficiency_n in_o the_o moysaicall_a church_n and_o commonwealth_n proper_a to_o that_o administration_n and_o answerable_a in_o some_o way_n to_o the_o benefit_n in_o the_o new_a that_o they_o by_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n bring_v down_o upon_o that_o people_n temporal_a and_o outward_a blessing_n answerable_a to_o the_o spiritual_a and_o eternal_a blessing_n by_o christ_n which_o question_n be_v large_o discuss_v by_o vossius_fw-la wherein_o i_o shall_v not_o interpose_v because_o they_o that_o attribute_v most_o unto_o those_o ceremonial_a performance_n yet_o bind_v the_o effect_n of_o they_o within_o the_o compass_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n so_o that_o they_o resign_v up_o their_o key_n and_o power_n unto_o their_o lord_n and_o king_n who_o harbinger_n they_o be_v at_o his_o appear_v but_o for_o the_o action_n and_o administration_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n that_o they_o also_o be_v in_o some_o sort_n typical_a be_v not_o so_o usual_o observe_v as_o the_o former_a yet_o it_o be_v no_o less_o true_a who_o can_v deny_v but_o that_o phineas_n his_o pray_v or_o execute_v of_o justice_n whether_o soever_o it_o be_v for_o the_o hebrew_n will_v probable_o bear_v either_o a_o moral_a action_n and_o yet_o typical_o shadow_v out_o unto_o we_o christ_n our_o great_a highpriest_n by_o who_o intercede_v for_o we_o with_o the_o father_n he_o be_v pacify_v towards_o we_o so_o not_o a_o few_o protestant_a writer_n have_v interpret_v it_o but_o what_o speak_v i_o of_o one_o action_n when_o as_o dr._n taylor_n have_v publish_v a_o book_n wherein_o he_o discover_v all_o along_o a_o typical_a shadow_v forth_o of_o christ_n not_o only_a in_o the_o ceremonial_a but_o also_o moral_a action_n of_o most_o of_o the_o ancient_a patriarck_n priest_n judges_z king_n and_o prophet_n but_o here_o i_o do_v not_o desire_v to_o dispute_v the_o question_n but_o only_o as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v to_o explain_v my_o judgement_n therefore_o in_o such_o moral_a action_n as_o these_o i_o observe_v three_o thing_n first_o their_o moral_a nature_n whereby_o they_o be_v of_o perpetual_a use_n both_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o of_o the_o new_a as_o prayer_n repentance_n and_o other_o action_n of_o duty_n towards_o god_n and_o man_n be_v as_o necessary_a as_o ever_o they_o be_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o shall_v be_v by_o the_o true_a child_n of_o faith_n as_o much_o practise_v and_o in_o a_o more_o spiritual_a manner_n contrary_a to_o that_o false_a slander_n that_o pass_v abroad_o concern_v we_o that_o we_o let_v man_n loose_v from_o all_o duty_n of_o piety_n towards_o god_n or_o charity_n towards_o man_n against_o which_o false_a reproach_n the_o lord_n will_v in_o time_n arise_v to_o the_o vindication_n of_o his_o people_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n they_o may_v be_v bold_a to_o commend_v their_o name_n and_o reputation_n unto_o he_o into_o who_o hand_n they_o have_v already_o commit_v their_o soul_n second_o in_o these_o action_n there_o be_v their_o typical_a effect_n whereby_o if_o they_o be_v good_a action_n in_o that_o administration_n they_o wrought_v proportionable_a effect_n as_o phineas_n his_o pray_v stay_v the_o plague_n if_o they_o be_v evil_a action_n they_o bring_v evil_a effect_n as_o david_n number_v the_o people_n bring_v the_o plague_n his_o adultery_n the_o death_n of_o the_o child_n etc._n etc._n these_o effect_n i_o call_v typical_a because_o they_o be_v attribute_v to_o these_o action_n as_o they_o do_v typical_o relate_v unto_o christ_n and_o set_v aside_o that_o relation_n such_o a_o effect_n shall_v not_o have_v be_v attribute_v unto_o they_o as_o for_o example_n the_o prayer_n of_o phineas_n have_v not_o stay_v the_o plague_n if_o he_o have_v not_o therein_o stand_v as_o a_o type_n of_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o only_a one_o that_o turn_v away_o all_o evil_n from_o those_o that_o be_v he_o who_o because_o he_o be_v not_o so_o reveal_v in_o those_o time_n therefore_o it_o be_v requisite_a that_o it_o shall_v be_v shadow_v out_o unto_o they_o in_o this_o and_o such_o like_a type_n so_o that_o the_o effect_n be_v only_o ascribe_v to_o the_o type_n in_o umbra_fw-la in_o the_o shadow_n but_o to_o the_o thing_n typify_v in_o veritate_fw-la in_o the_o truth_n so_o i_o think_v i_o may_v say_v that_o all_o action_n even_o of_o the_o moral_a law_n do_v in_o this_o manner_n point_n unto_o christ_n in_o like_a sort_n david_n adultery_n bring_v the_o death_n of_o the_o child_n as_o the_o typical_a effect_n of_o that_o sin_n so_o that_o david_n in_o that_o consideration_n bear_v his_o own_o sin_n but_o how_o only_o as_o a_o type_n of_o christ_n as_o manifest_v that_o the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n that_o be_v to_o bear_v their_o sin_n be_v yet_o to_o come_v yet_o do_v he_o not_o real_o bear_v his_o own_o sin_n no_o not_o in_o any_o degree_n for_o so_o it_o be_v whole_o reserve_v for_o the_o lord_n christ_n upon_o who_o it_o be_v charge_v to_o the_o uttermost_a who_o make_v a_o full_a satisfaction_n not_o only_o for_o the_o eternal_a but_o also_o the_o temporal_a punishment_n of_o all_o that_o belong_v unto_o he_o not_o only_o for_o those_o since_o christ_n but_o even_o for_o all_o from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n so_o that_o neither_o david_n nor_o any_o other_o of_o the_o child_n of_o god_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n have_v ever_o have_v any_o sin_n charge_v on_o they_o have_v they_o not_o stand_v as_o type_n of_o he_o that_o be_v to_o come_v to_o bear_v the_o sin_n of_o many_o neither_o ever_o have_v they_o sin_v charge_v upon_o they_o in_o the_o real_a positive_a nature_n of_o it_o if_o i_o may_v so_o speak_v for_o so_o it_o be_v only_o and_o whole_o bear_v by_o christ_n for_o they_o but_o only_o as_o i_o say_v in_o this_o typical_a consideration_n for_o christ_n only_o have_v with_o one_o sacrifice_n perfect_v for_o ever_o those_o that_o be_v consecrate_v heb._n 10.14_o he_o only_o be_v the_o propitiation_n for_o our_o sin_n 1_o joh._n 2.1,2_o and_o this_o he_o do_v not_o only_o for_o those_o since_o christ_n but_o also_o for_o the_o sin_n that_o be_v pass_v rom._n 3.25_o to_o wit_n under_o the_o former_a covenant_n heb._n 9.15_o so_o then_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n since_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n there_o be_v no_o remembrance_n of_o sin_n neither_o upon_o christ_n who_o be_v rise_v again_o from_o the_o dead_a without_o sin_n nor_o upon_o the_o faithful_a see_v they_o can_v now_o be_v shadow_n of_o christ_n to_o come_v who_o be_v already_o come_v and_o by_o the_o lustre_n of_o his_o presence_n have_v make_v all_o shadow_n flee_v away_o so_o that_o the_o whole_a amount_v to_o that_o which_o i_o lay_v down_o in_o the_o beginning_n namely_o that_o where_o any_o thing_n be_v
