the_o angel_n that_o come_v and_o stand_v at_o the_o altar_n be_v our_o bless_a saviour_n as_o the_o best_a of_o interpreter_n teach_v we_o god_n manifest_v in_o the_o flesh_n a_o object_n which_o angel_n and_o man_n be_v not_o use_v to_o behold_v christ_n the_o angel_n of_o the_o great_a council_n and_o the_o messenger_n of_o the_o covenant_n as_o the_o prophet_n malachy_n tell_v we_o mal._n 3.1_o christ_n our_o high-priest_n who_o offer_v a_o sacrifice_n not_o of_o beast_n but_o of_o himself_o upon_o the_o altar_n of_o the_o cross_n and_o therefore_o at_o his_o come_n into_o the_o world_n to_o assume_v our_o humane_a nature_n to_o satisfy_v the_o divine_a justice_n for_o man_n sin_n he_o cause_v a_o great_a admiration_n unto_o angel_n and_o at_o his_o manifestation_n procure_v in_o heaven_n the_o militant_a church_n a_o profound_a silence_n but_o that_o you_o may_v have_v a_o great_a satisfaction_n i_o beseech_v you_o look_v upon_o the_o 3._o verse_n of_o our_o chapter_n and_o you_o will_v easy_o see_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o silence_n to_o be_v christ_n our_o redeemer_n for_o it_o be_v say_v in_o that_o verse_n that_o another_o angel_n christ_n our_o priest_n and_o mediator_n come_v have_v assume_v our_o humane_a nature_n and_o stand_v at_o the_o altar_n to_o show_v we_o that_o he_o be_v offer_v in_o sacrifice_n for_o our_o sin_n where_o you_o must_v observe_v that_o christ_n be_v our_o priest_n according_a to_o both_o his_o nature_n our_o altar_n according_a to_o his_o divine_a nature_n for_o as_o the_o altar_n sanctify_v the_o oblation_n mat._n 23.19_o so_o christ_n as_o god_n sanctify_v himself_o in_o his_o humane_a nature_n according_a to_o which_o humane_a nature_n christ_n proper_o be_v our_o sacrifice_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o colossian_n 22._o ver_fw-la and_o in_o 1_o pet._n 4.1_o although_o the_o principal_a virtue_n of_o his_o sacrifice_n do_v depend_v on_o his_o divine_a nature_n moreover_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o angel_n have_v a_o golden_a censer_n to_o teach_v we_o that_o christ_n give_v god_n the_o father_n a_o perfect_a and_o eternal_a satisfaction_n that_o we_o may_v be_v deliver_v from_o the_o eternal_a slavery_n of_o the_o prince_n of_o darkness_n which_o our_o sin_n have_v make_v we_o subject_a to_o and_o further_o it_o say_v that_o much_o incense_n be_v give_v he_o to_o show_v we_o that_o the_o peculiar_a office_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o present_a god_n the_o father_n the_o prayer_n of_o the_o righteous_a and_o make_v they_o acceptable_a unto_o he_o through_o his_o intercession_n which_o alone_o without_o the_o intercession_n of_o the_o depart_a saint_n be_v sufficient_a for_o all_o those_o that_o he_o redeem_v by_o his_o precious_a blood_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o 4._o verse_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o smoke_n of_o the_o incense_n which_o come_v with_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o saint_n ascend_v up_o before_o god_n out_o of_o the_o angel_n hand_n all_o which_o thing_n can_v not_o but_o cause_n silence_n in_o heaven_n the_o militant_a church_n and_o ravish_v with_o admiration_n all_o the_o intelligent_a creature_n in_o the_o open_n of_o so_o great_a a_o mystery_n which_o the_o angel_n desire_v to_o look_v into_o 1_o pet._n 1.12_o moreover_o see_v that_o the_o angel_n christ_n take_v the_o censer_n and_o fill_v it_o with_o fire_n of_o the_o altar_n as_o we_o read_v in_o the_o 5._o verse_n and_o cast_v it_o into_o the_o earth_n to_o prepare_v by_o that_o sacred_a sire_n the_o minister_n of_o the_o holy_a gospel_n to_o preach_v one_o jesus_n christ_n and_o he_o crucify_v as_o he_o do_v after_o his_o ascension_n into_o the_o glorious_a palace_n of_o his_o father_n as_o we_o read_v act._n 2.3_o the_o church_n can_v not_o but_o keep_v silence_n and_o further_o hear_v voice_n thundering_n lightning_n and_o earthquake_n at_o the_o open_n of_o the_o great_a and_o sublime_a mystery_n of_o our_o redemption_n for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o it_o she_o can_v not_o but_o admire_v with_o a_o profound_a silence_n such_o prodigious_a effect_n as_o many_o for_o certain_a do_v in_o this_o world_n at_o the_o hear_n of_o this_o great_a mystery_n and_o i_o hope_v many_o in_o this_o company_n can_v but_o wonder_v at_o it_o and_o say_v be_v ravish_v in_o admiration_n with_o s._n john_n at_o the_o open_n of_o so_o great_a a_o mystery_n there_o be_v silence_n in_o heaven_n but_o i_o be_o afraid_a of_o abuse_v of_o your_o patience_n see_v that_o this_o silence_n shall_v continue_v but_o half_a a_o hour_n there_o be_v silence_n in_o heaven_n about_o the_o space_n of_o half_a a_o hour_n which_o lead_v i_o to_o the_o second_o part_n of_o my_o text._n the_o second_o part_n as_o the_o intelligent_a creature_n be_v limit_v and_o finite_a so_o be_v their_o contemplation_n which_o do_v not_o permit_v they_o to_o consider_v several_a thing_n at_o once_o for_o their_o understanding_n present_v they_o the_o object_n one_o after_o another_o according_a to_o the_o capacity_n of_o their_o nature_n and_o indeed_o god_n alone_o be_v he_o who_o can_v at_o once_o comprehend_v all_o thing_n because_o he_o alone_o compass_v about_o all_o the_o creature_n of_o the_o universe_n and_o which_o be_v most_o admirable_a in_o the_o knowledge_n which_o god_n have_v of_o all_o thing_n be_v that_o to_o know_v they_o he_o do_v not_o look_v upon_o they_o but_o upon_o himself_o for_o in_o his_o wisdom_n he_o see_v the_o eternal_a model_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o in_o his_o will_n the_o efficient_a cause_n of_o all_o the_o event_n so_o that_o by_o the_o knowledge_n that_o god_n have_v of_o himself_o he_o know_v all_o thing_n but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o the_o intelligent_a creature_n for_o they_o must_v alternative_o and_o by_o degree_n consider_v several_a nature_n whether_o they_o look_v upon_o they_o intuitiuè_n intuitive_o as_o angel_n or_o discursiuè_fw-la discursive_o as_o man_n or_o consider_v they_o with_o admiration_n as_o both_o angel_n and_o man_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o our_o text_n there_o be_v silence_n in_o heaven_n for_o the_o space_n of_o half_a a_o hour_n because_o the_o sacred_a attendant_n of_o the_o militant_a church_n can_v not_o at_o once_o in_o a_o moment_n perceive_v all_o those_o wonder_n which_o we_o have_v tell_v you_o be_v see_v in_o heaven_n during_o the_o celestial_a silence_n of_o which_o s._n john_n speak_v say_v there_o be_v silence_n in_o heaven_n for_o the_o space_n of_o half_a a_o hour_n but_o this_o duration_n of_o time_n half_a a_o hour_n have_v some_o difficulty_n in_o its_o explication_n for_o some_o learned_a man_n will_v have_v it_o to_o be_v the_o duration_n of_o the_o external_a peace_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n under_o constantine_n the_o great_a which_o seem_v to_o have_v last_v but_o about_o the_o space_n of_o half_a a_o hour_n for_o soon_o after_o that_o peace_n heresy_n
