we_o see_v clear_a character_n in_o that_o psalm_n to_o show_v we_o that_o the_o jew_n do_v so_o expound_v it_o since_o those_o word_n the_o heathen_a shall_v fear_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o all_o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n his_o glory_n and_o when_o the_o lord_n shall_v build_v up_o zion_n he_o shall_v appear_v in_o his_o glory_n together_o with_o several_a passage_n that_o follow_v can_v not_o according_a to_o the_o cabbala_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v understand_v of_o any_o thing_n but_o of_o the_o messiah_n and_o of_o the_o divine_a shechinah_n that_o be_v to_o rest_v upon_o he_o and_o so_o according_a to_o this_o all_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o psalm_n be_v also_o applicable_a to_o he_o if_o st._n paul_n argue_v that_o the_o promise_n be_v not_o make_v to_o seed_n but_o to_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n which_o seem_v a_o bad_a inference_n since_o seed_n though_o in_o the_o singular_a 3.16_o be_v yet_o of_o a_o plural_a signification_n this_o may_v perhaps_o be_v bad_a greek_a unless_o some_o corrupt_a form_n of_o speech_n have_v make_v seed_n stand_v for_o son_n but_o though_o the_o greek_a be_v not_o pure_a yet_o the_o sense_n be_v true_a and_o the_o argument_n in_o itself_o be_v good_a st._n paul_n design_n be_v to_o let_v they_o see_v that_o their_o be_v the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n alone_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o assure_v they_o of_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n it_o be_v not_o to_o all_o abraham_n posterity_n that_o the_o promise_n be_v make_v since_o neither_o ishmael_n nor_o keturah_n child_n be_v comprehend_v within_o it_o but_o it_o belong_v only_o to_o isaac_n and_o in_o that_o contract_n the_o promise_n to_o one_o a_o emblem_n be_v give_v of_o the_o messiah_n in_o who_o single_o the_o blessing_n of_o that_o covenant_n be_v to_o centre_n and_o be_v not_o to_o be_v spread_v into_o the_o whole_a nation_n that_o descend_v from_o he_o so_o that_o what_o fault_n soever_o we_o may_v find_v with_o the_o greek_a the_o sense_n be_v true_a and_o the_o application_n be_v useful_a and_o we_o do_v not_o know_v but_o such_o a_o form_n of_o speech_n may_v have_v be_v then_o use_v in_o common_a discourse_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o apostle_n have_v no_o rhetoric_n and_o often_o their_o grammar_n be_v not_o exact_a but_o this_o instead_o of_o make_v against_o their_o write_n do_v real_o make_v for_o they_o since_o it_o show_v that_o they_o use_v no_o entice_a word_n nor_o labour_a period_n no_o lively_a figure_n nor_o study_a sentence_n all_o be_v natural_a without_o art_n or_o study_n which_o show_v that_o they_o know_v they_o need_v no_o borrow_a help_n to_o support_v a_o cause_n in_o which_o they_o be_v sure_a heaven_n will_v interpose_v and_o promote_v its_o own_o concern_v and_o the_o veneration_n with_o which_o their_o write_n be_v receive_v and_o in_o which_o they_o be_v hold_v show_v that_o there_o be_v somewhat_o else_o than_o the_o skill_n or_o eloquence_n the_o persuasive_n or_o arguing_n of_o the_o author_n that_o beget_v and_o maintain_v their_o reputation_n if_o we_o find_v here_o and_o there_o a_o passage_n that_o we_o know_v not_o well_o what_o to_o make_v of_o this_o be_v the_o fate_n of_o all_o book_n that_o be_v write_v at_o a_o great_a distance_n from_o we_o the_o custom_n and_o manner_n of_o man_n change_v strange_o in_o a_o course_n of_o many_o age_n and_o all_o speech_n especial_o that_o which_o be_v figurative_a and_o dark_a have_v such_o relation_n to_o these_o that_o if_o in_o a_o book_n full_a of_o many_o plain_a useful_a and_o excellent_a theory_n and_o rule_n some_o passage_n come_v in_o among_o they_o which_o we_o plain_o see_v relate_v to_o some_o practice_n or_o opinion_n of_o which_o we_o be_v not_o sufficient_o inform_v such_o as_o the_o be_v baptize_v for_o the_o dead_a have_v power_n on_o the_o head_n because_o of_o the_o angel_n or_o the_o like_a this_o be_v nothing_o but_o what_o occur_v to_o we_o in_o all_o ancient_a book_n and_o what_o we_o easy_o bear_v with_o in_o all_o other_o write_n even_o of_o a_o much_o late_a antiquity_n wear_v therefore_o to_o make_v the_o best_a use_n we_o can_v of_o that_o which_o we_o do_v understand_v and_o to_o let_v those_o other_o place_n lie_v till_o we_o can_v find_v out_o their_o true_a meaning_n 3.19_o that_o of_o christ_n go_v in_o the_o spirit_n to_o preach_v to_o the_o spirit_n now_o in_o prison_n be_v perhaps_o one_o of_o these_o unless_o we_o believe_v that_o by_o prison_n be_v to_o be_v mean_v according_a to_o the_o use_n of_o that_o word_n and_o other_o like_v it_o in_o the_o septuagint_n the_o darken_a state_n of_o the_o gentile_a world_n 2._o who_o be_v shut_v up_o in_o idolatry_n as_o in_o a_o prison_n or_o in_o chain_n under_o the_o power_n of_o the_o

all_o this_o the_o sense_n be_v clear_a and_o good_a though_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o expression_n be_v a_o little_a dark_a the_o way_n of_o all_o the_o eastern_n even_o to_o this_o day_n in_o all_o their_o discourse_n be_v obscure_a and_o involve_a where_o a_o great_a deal_n be_v suppose_v to_o be_v already_o understand_v we_o be_v not_o to_o wonder_v if_o we_o shall_v find_v some_o part_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n write_v in_o that_o strain_n as_o for_o that_o of_o melchisedeck_v as_o the_o word_n lie_v they_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o riddle_n indeed_o but_o with_o a_o little_a observation_n we_o will_v find_v that_o passage_n concern_v he_o in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n to_o be_v as_o plain_a as_o any_o thing_n can_v be_v the_o design_n of_o a_o great_a part_n of_o this_o epistle_n be_v to_o show_v 7.3_o that_o the_o messiah_n be_v to_o be_v a_o priest_n and_o be_v to_o offer_v up_o a_o sacrifice_n but_o not_o to_o be_v of_o the_o family_n of_o aaron_n since_o he_o be_v to_o spring_v out_o of_o the_o tribe_n of_o judah_n nor_o to_o be_v a_o priest_n after_o that_o order_n or_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o that_o institution_n but_o according_a to_o the_o psalm_n to_o be_v a_o priest_n after_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedeck_v 13.14_o now_o the_o rule_n or_o order_n of_o the_o aaronical_a priesthood_n be_v that_o every_o priest_n be_v to_o be_v descend_v from_o that_o line_n to_o be_v bear_v of_o a_o mother_n that_o have_v not_o be_v a_o widow_n or_o divorce_v and_o this_o give_v he_o who_o be_v thus_o receive_v a_o right_a to_o transmit_v his_o priesthood_n to_o his_o descendant_n in_o a_o genealogy_n derive_v from_o he_o these_o priest_n be_v also_o tie_v to_o their_o turn_v in_o attend_v on_o the_o temple_n which_o be_v call_v their_o day_n in_o which_o they_o be_v admit_v to_o serve_v at_o thirty_o which_o be_v therefore_o the_o age_n of_o the_o begin_n of_o their_o day_n and_o at_o fifty_o they_o be_v dismiss_v and_o be_v no_o more_o bind_v to_o attend_v than_o if_o they_o have_v be_v natural_o dead_a so_o this_o be_v the_o end_n of_o their_o life_n as_o to_o their_o priesthood_n now_o in_o opposition_n to_o this_o melchisedeck_v be_v a_o priest_n without_o father_n and_o mother_n that_o be_v he_o be_v immediate_o call_v to_o it_o of_o god_n and_o it_o do_v not_o devolve_v on_o he_o by_o descent_n nor_o be_v he_o to_o derive_v this_o in_o a_o genealogy_n to_o his_o posterity_n he_o come_v ●ot_n on_o to_o a_o attendance_n on_o the_o service_n of_o god_n at_o such_o a_o age_n nor_o go_v he_o out_o at_o another_o but_o be_v a_o priest_n of_o god_n for_o ever_o that_o be_v of_o a_o long_a continuance_n according_a to_o the_o common_a use_n of_o that_o word_n which_o only_o import_v a_o constancy_n in_o any_o thing_n melchisedeck_v be_v a_o priest_n for_o term_n of_o life_n which_o answer_v the_o signification_n of_o the_o word_n but_o be_v a_o type_n of_o he_o that_o in_o the_o strict_a sense_n be_v to_o be_v a_o priest_n of_o god_n for_o ever_o thus_o if_o we_o construe_v that_o verse_n by_o a_o reverse_n which_o be_v very_o
