6 17 18 More specially of som Iericho was after this maner by Iosuah abandoned Those that do appertain more specially to som by reason of their special profession are especially but of two sorts such as appertained to the preests and such as appertained to the Nazarites The preests were such as God had chosen from among the rest of the people neerer unto him and to have much dealing with him on the peoples behalfe Vnto them therfore he praescribeth certain rules of special sanctification somwhat more streightly than unto others As namely first generally to al that they should r Le. 10 8-11 not drink wine or any strong drink when it was their course to be about the office of their administration to the end that they might the better be able to judge betwixt the holie and unholie between the clean and unclean and better teach the children of Israel as they ought And that ſ Lev. 21 16-24 none of them of the seed of Aaron having a blemish in any part of their bodie might execute the preests office and yet might live with them and take their part of the holie offerings as much as others Two other laws there were appointed to the preests but not unto everie of them alike the one of marrieng the other of moorning and other duties to frinds departed Concerning marrieng the law that was given was to restrain the abuse of unseemly marrieng of themselves The t Lev. 21 13-15 high preest mght not marrie any that had plaid the harlot or been divorced or was a widow but only a maid The u Lev. 21 7 8. inferior preests might marrie widows but not such as had been polluted or defamed or before divorced from any other Concerning moorning and such other funeral duties the high preest might x Lev. 21 10-12 not moorn for any or do such things at funerals as others commonly were woont and might The inferior preests had som more libertie but y Lev. 21 1-6 yet restrained to certain persons that were neer unto them as father mother son daughter brother and unmarried sister otherwise they might not have ought to do with the funerals of any no not of the magistrate As also not only Aaron the high preest z Lev. 10 6 7. but Eleazar and Ithamar likewise being under preests though heer they have libertie to moorn for their brethren yet there they were forbid to moorn for those two of their brethren that were then suddēly destroied with fire for their sin belike bicause they were taken away in Gods displeasure and they could not wel moorn for them but that they must seem somwhat to repine against the severitie of Gods judgements The Nazarites were such as tooke upon them a special vow of holines not cōstrained but as it were of their own accord Seeing therof that needs they would be Nazarites that is separate from the common sort and drawing neerer for the time unto the Lord he gave unto them also certain outward observations of special holines that so in that voluntarie separation of theirs they might not so easily take in vain the name of God but do indeed as they did praetend and tooke upon them to observe And the law that was given to the a Nu. 6 1-21 Nazarite was no more but to teach how or in what maner to b Vers 1-5 consecrate himselfe how in the time of his separation he might c Vers 6-9 be defiled how that pollution was to be d Vers 9-12 clensed again and how he had to e Vers 13-21 finish his vow of separation But the soldier also hath a special charge f De. 23 9-11 if he know himselfe to be unclean to avoid himselfe out of the camp for the time 24 The other point of this their dutie And that they must be zealous withal that was to be directed to the person of God is that they should be zealous towards God or earnestly bent to the way of godlines and religion so to cal them from the common corruption of the world in being so carelesse of religion or so faint in the worship of God or any good work and yet marvelous earnestly bent on the vain and corruptible things of this praesent world The things that do appertain heerunto are three First the requiring of the seventh dais rest then the commending of the scriptures unto them last of al the allowing of vowes Concerning the seventh dais rest it was ordeined First in the sabbaoth that a Ex. 20 8-11 23 12.31 13-17 34 21.35 1-3 Lev. 19 3 30.26 2. Deu. 5 12-15 everie seventh day should be a sabbaoth that is a day of rest the meaning wherof was that the people themselves withal their families their cattel also and that al such strangers as dwelt among them with their families and cattel should that day cease from al maner of their usual labors and keep it an holie rest unto the Lord. To the end they might the better observe it he doth both give them to understand that as he doth therby b Lev. 19 2 3. require holines of them so doth he himselfe c Exo. 20 11. 31 13. sanctifie those that truly observe it and so performeth in them his own request and although he do so praecisely require it that he alloweth not so much as the d Exo. 35 3. kindeling of a fire on that day no not e Exo. 34 21. in seed time nor in harvest yet maketh he the f Exo. 31 14 15. 35 2. breach therof to be death As also he sheweth them another commoditie that hangeth theron which himselfe to their own use requireth that is that he wil have that a rest-day g Exo. 20 10. 23 12. that themselves their servants and cattel may rest theron from their woonted labors which must needs make them a great deal more fresh to continu their labor Then in the studie of the scriptures The scriptures were commended unto them that they should have a special regard of them and be very studious both to know to do the law of the Lord. To this they were lead three maner of wais The first was that they should have the words of the law written and that verie plainly k Deut. 27 2 3 4 8. first upon certain great stones set up and plastered for the same purpose at the entrance of the land so soone as they shal com thither then l Deu. 6 5-9 in their own houses upon the gates and posts therof yea and to have the same m Deut. 11 18-21 bound to their hands and as a frontlet between their eies to put them in better remembrance therof The next was that they were commanded to have n Num. 15 37-41 Deu. 22 12. fringes and ribbands of blew silk upon their garments to put them in remembrance of the law of the Lord to do after it

Koathithes generally among other of the holiest things of the sanctuarie yet bicause the preests must needs be of that kindred and bicause that n Ios 3 8. God himselfe commanded Iosuah to bid the preests to bear the ark as also they did o Ios 3 14. both in passing over Iordan and in p Ios 6 12. compassing of Iericho and such like it seemeth to be a peculiar charge to them especially belonging This is certain that q Nu. 4 5-15 17-20 Aaron and his sons and so consequently those that after them succeded in lineal discent were charged to cover both the ark and al the other furniture of the holie place before that others should com to take it up or so much as be in praesence while it was don As also Eleazar was specially r Num. 4 16. charged with the oil for the lights with the sweet perfume with the daily sacrifice with the annointing oil and with the oversight of the sanctuarie it selfe and such things as therunto appertained Concerning the Levites The charge of the Levites wheras Levie their great common ancestor ſ Gen. 46 11. had three sons Gershon Kohath and Merari everie one of these t Ex. 6 16-25 Num. 3 22 28 34. grew to a several familie hence commeth it to passe that as they were three sundrie families so was there allotted to everie one a several charge about the tabernacle beside that same which they had common to them al. That which was common to them al was u Num. 3 6-8 8 19. 18 2 3 4 6 21 23. to help and assist the preests about the service of the tabernacle that is about the dressing and praeparing of sacrifices and such like as also to teach and maintain the knowledge of the law among the people x Lev. 10 11 that being som part of the work of those that served in the tabernacle and themselves being y Gen. 49 7. Num. 35 1-8 Ios 21 1-40 afterward so placed throughout the land as might be most commodious to give foorth and maintain a light unto al. That which was allotted unto the several families was but temporal that is so long as the tabernacle was to be remooved During which time they were assigned to carrie the same so oft as needed the z Num. 4 4 15 Kohathites the most holie things that were appertaining to the tabernacle the a Nu. 4 24-28 Gershonites al the hangings and coverings and the b Nu. 4 29-33 Merarites al the timber-work the boords of the tabernacle and the pillers the cords also and the pins But it is to be noted first that c Num. 4 3 23 30. none of any of these families was appointed to the bearing of these burdens but that were of the age of thirtie yeers and under fiftie d Num. 7 3-9 then also that for the easier carriage of these for God was never woont to overlay his people the Merarites had four chariots allowed them the Gershonites two And when that this temporal charge did cease we find that David e 1. Chro. 23 25-27 tooke occasion therby to allot them from twentie yeers old upward to other labors both f 1. Chro. 23 2-6 about the building of the tēple as 24000. to build 6000. to oversee 4000. to be porters and 4000. to praise the Lord with instruments ordained therunto and g 1. Chro. 23 28-32 when that work also should be finished to al such labors and charges as did appertain to the service of the temple 39 As for the creatures which they had to offer in their sacrifices What kind of creatures might be offered it may soone be seen what they were For generally they were such as were their common and usual sustinance As a Lev. 1 2 10 14. beeves muttons goates and som kind of birds as turtle doves and pigeons and of the increase of the ground b Lev. 2 1 4 5 7. Lev. 7 12 13. Lev. 2 13. Lev. 2 2. fine flower corn unground bread oil and wine salt also and frankincense in divers cases Concerning the beasts that were allowed for sacrifice they c Lev. 22 8. 1 3 10. might not be first dead nor maimed nor have any blemish nor be il liking nor under d Lev. 22 26 27. eight dais old at the least Which in most cases must be only the males in som the females and in som either of both As for al the rest there was no special choise in them praescribed save only that e Lev. 2 11. the bread that was offered in the meat offerings must ever be unlevened saving that f Lev. 7 13. in peace offerings they might bring som levened bread withal and the bread that they should bring might be either g Le. 2 4 5 7. baked in the oven or fried in the pan or made in the caldron the h Lev. 7 12. form of which was either cakes or wafers 40 Concerning the times of their solemnities Of their solemn feasts and times of them there were two sorts one of dais another of yeers Of dais there were divers first the sabbath everie weeke then the first day of everie moneth and certain others that came everie yeer Sabbaths Concerning the sabbath the word by nature doth signifie rest and the ordinance
of God for it was that wheras he had most liberally allowed his people to bestow six dais in the weeke about their usual labors the seventh day he would have them ever to rest and to keep it holie unto the Lord. Which being first a Gen. 2 2 3. commended to man by the example of God himselfe was afterward b Exo. 20 8-11 23 12 Lev. 23 3. Deu. 5 12-15 commanded very expresly by the written word So that they had both to intermit their ordinarie busines for that day and to give them selves to holines besides The first day of every moneth As for the first day of everie moneth which also is called the new moone it was in this somthing severed from other dais for that c Num. 28 11-15 there was a special sacrifice appointed for it of which there is somwhat alreadie said in the treatise of sacrifices And although otherwise we read not of any special solemnitie appointed for that day in the first institution therof yet afterward in the practise of the church d 1. Sam. 20 5 2. King 4 23. we find it often rekoned among their festival dais and somtimes to be so specially named that it seemeth with them to have bin of som special account As that David e Psal 81 3. assigneththerunto the blowing of trumpets and a joiful solemnizing therof and Salomon f 2. Par. 2 4. doth rekon it among others of the solemn feasts and g Isai 1 14. Hos 2 11. Col. 2 15. so likewise both Isai and Hoseah among the prophets and long after that Saint Paul the Apostle Of these there was one of more special account The first day of the seventh moneth and of greater solemnitie than the rest which was the first of the h Lev. 23 23-25 Num. 29 1. seventh moneth which they were appointed to keepe verie holie and to solemnize not only with the sound of the trumpet but also i Num. 29 2-6 with another sacrifice proper to it selfe over and besides that which was appointed for the first dais of other moneths Easter Of those that came everie yeer once k Exo. 12 1. the first was that which is called Easter the solemnities wherof were divers First that which was l Exod. 23 14-17 34 23 24. common both unto Pentecost and to the feast of tabernacles following that is that m Deu. 16 5 6 11 16 17. al the people should make their repair to the place that the Lord had chosen so many as were of the woorthier sex and able to travel there to keep holie the feast to the Lord then the eating of the pascal lamb according to the maner before described and namely with none other n Exo. 12 15 17-20 34 18. 13 3 6 7 Lev. 23 6. Deut. 16 8. than unlevened bread al the whole feast thirdly that therin they had to offer a o Lev. 23 10 11. sheaf of new corn unto the Lord last of al that their feast was to last p Exod. 12 15 16. Lev. 23 7 8. seven dais togither wherof the first and the last were of special solemnitie above the rest But as touching the second point that is the eating of the pascal lamb q Exod. 12 6.13 10. Lev. 25 5 6. Nu. 9 2 3 13. although the law did generally require both that everie one should eat therof and appointed both one time and place for al yet did it allow of certain r Nu. 9 10 11 exceptions if any should be either unclean or in his journey els where that such might have respit til the same day of the next moneth Pentecost The feast of ſ Exod. 23 16.34 22. Lev. 23 15-17 Deu. 16 9-12 Pentecost which followed next in order was the fiftith day after Easter which also was to be holden a verie holie feast unto the Lord in remembrance of their deliverance out of the bondage of Aegypt For which their deliverance they were willed themselves and their families to rejoice togither before the Lord and to bring with them two loaves of levened bread to praesent the Lord withal And the better to advance the solemnitie of this feast besides the praesence of the people and those loaves that they had to bring for themselves and ther families there was t Lev. 23 18-21 a special sacrifice appointed on behalfe of the whole people for that pręsent day After this feast of Pentecost which fel in the third moneth of the yeer they had no more til they came to the seventh saving only the first of everie moneth that before was spoken of But when the seventh moneth came in which was about the end of sommer it did bring with it two notable feasts besides the first day spoken of before The former of which was no more but one only day The day of reconciliation which was u Ley. 16 29.23 27. Num. 29 7. on the tenth day of that moneth was called the day x Lev. 23 27. of reconciliation On it was it that the high preest had to enter into y Lev. 16 34. Exod. 30 10. the most-holie place there to make a general attonement for al. On it had the z Lev. 16 31. 23 27-32 Num. 29 7. people to cease from their labors and to afflict and humble themselves before the Lord. On it also everie nine fortith yeer a Lev. 25 9. was proclaimed the Iubile following by the sound of the trumpet Five dais after that is the b Lev. 23 33-43 Nu. 29 12-39 The feast of tabernacles fifteenth of the same moneth began the feast of tabernacles the last of the principal feasts in the yeer and of a verie special solemnitie ordained to cal to their remembrance how they dwelt in tents in the wildernes fortie yeers It continued eight dais and had a proper sacrifice for everie one but the greatest and most special dais were the first and the last 41 The yeers that were of special account with them Their solemnities in yeers The third yeer were especially three the third the seventh and the fiftith The solemnitie of the third yeer was a Deu. 14 28 29. 26 12-15 that so soone as they had that yeer set out a just tith of al such things as God had given them they should make a solemn protestation therof before the Lord that they had truly paid al such duties that they had withheld or taken to their own use no part of them whatsoever need or occasion there was nor suffered any part of them through negligence to decay in their hands and therwithal that they should make their praiers unto the Lord to blesse the people and the land which he had given them It was also ordeined that that yeer they al should have a more special care of those that stood in need as namely of the Levite stranger fatherles and widow and to
that end be of extraordinarie liberalitie towards them or keepe as we say open house for them But as touching this point it cannot be denied but that the writers do somthing varie For som think that this was another tenth besides the ordinarie tenth of the yeer others that it was no other tenth that heer is spoken of but the ordinarie tenth of the yeer but that it should be this yeer bestowed not only on the Levites but also on al the poore generally Howbeit I take it that neither of those senses can wel stand with other parts of the scripture heerunto belonging and that they are not charged but with protestation of sincere righteous dealing in those matters and not to lay out any other tenth nor to bestow that tenth on others than otherwise by law they ought but only to have more special care of the poore and of their own to be more liberal to them Whence this third yeer is to be rekoned And it is to be noted that this third yeer was not everie third yeer but the third from the seventh yeers rest and so fel no oftener indeed but only everie seventh yeer And therin may we see the wisdom and goodnes of God that appointed them to make that protestation and to have a special care of the poore at such a time as was the easiest for them being even in the midst of their plentie when they might most easily amend what defaults they had before made in paiment of their duties if any such were and with lesse hurt to themselves be liberal to others And seeing that b Deut. 15 9. God doth in any wise forbid to have the lesse care on the poore when at any time the seventh yeer approcheth much more are they charged to be careful of them when as it is furthest of from them The seventh yeer The solemnitie of the seventh yeer rested in three special points Wherof the first was that c Exod. 23 10 11. Lev. 25 1-7 20-22 they should that yeer let their ground rest and neither sow nor plant theron neither yet reap or take to themselves that which it yeelded forth of it selfe but that it should that yeer be common and serve to the use of the poorer sort and to releeve the beasts and cattel of the feeld The second was d Deu. 15 1-6 that no man might trouble or su his brother for debt but that for that yeer he had to surcease from al such actions that so poore creditors might togither have rest with the land and so more easily pay it after But yet was it lawful to exact the same of strangers that observed not the law of God and so had their sabbaths in derision And to the end that they might be in this case more favorable to their poore brethren the Lord doth promise that his blessing shal besuch towards them that so doing they shal find no want The third and last was that c Dent. 31 10-13 everie seventh yeer al the people men women and children and those strangers that dwelt among them should at the feast of tabernacles resort to the place that the Lord had appointed and thereshould have the law read unto them to the end that they al might know it and keep it And so it seemeth to be meant of this seventh yeer that in another place f Deu. 16 14. there is mention of bringing their daughters and maidens to the feast of tabernacles wheras g Exo. 23 17. otherwise but only the males were required The fiftith yeer The solemnitie of the fiftith yeer was much greater For first of al that none should be deceived in their rekoning it h Lev. 25 8 9. was to be proclaimed openly in al quarters of the land and on the day of reconciliation in the 49. yeer going before So that wheras i Lev. 23.27 they had that day to afflict themselves every yeer yet in the 49. yeer on the selfesame day came there to al this special news of joy and gladnes In it k Lev. 25 11 12. the land should rest as in the seventh yeer And bicause it might be dowted how they shuld live when the seventh and the fiftith concur togither l Le. 25 20-22 he answereth that God wilso blesse the sixt yeer with increase that they shal live therof til new com again But besides this which it had common with the seventh yeer there were two other special praerogatives to it belonging One m Lev. 25 10 was that freedom must be proclaimed and granted to al the other that n Lev. 25 13. everie one had free accesse unto his ancient inhaeritance again Which benefits were to be enjoied not only for that yeer but for the time that should afterward follow unles themselves by som new act or deed of theirs should com in bondage or make away the possessions they had 42 Concerning the sacrifices themselves further to help the hardnes therof it shal be good first to say somwhat generally Of the sacrifices themselves and then to enter into the several nature of everie one Which in my judgement may best be done if we shal sort them al to be one of these two either ordinarie or extraordinarie The ordinarie sacrifice principally is that which is called the daily sacrifice which being once set before our eies wil give unto us such a general knowledge of the nature and form of a sacrifice that when we com to the rest we shal not need but to discourse of their several natures wherin they varie from the other Those also may we account ordinarie The ordinarie sacrifice which by the law of God the preests were bound ordinarily to offer at their times appointed without any other occasion given as request of others or whatsoever els Of this sort were divers but the first and principal was that which was called the dailie sacrifice Which was a Exod. 29 38-42 Num. 28 1-8 that everie morning and everie evening the preest should take a lamb of a yeer old without spot and praesent it before the Lord then should he kil and dresse it and lay it on the altar and there burn it unto the Lord. Wherunto they must also ad b Exo. 29 40. a certain quantitie of flower oil and wine of flower a tenth part which was an Omer which of our measure was about a pottle of oil and wine a like quantitie which was of either of them the fourth part of an Hin which of our measure was about a pint Last of al to the latter part of this sacrifice that is to the flower oil and wine which also is called c Lev. 2 1. Num. 28 5. a meat offering they should d Lev. 2 13. The sabbaoths sacrifice ever put som salt which in no meat offering might at any time want Next heerunto is the sacrifice e Nu. 28 9 10. of the sabbaoth which was no
