the_o kingly_a which_o late_a remain_v in_o moses_n after_o he_o by_o the_o command_n of_o god_n have_v devolve_v the_o priesthood_n which_o be_v original_o in_o himself_o upon_o his_o brother_n

sacrifice_n be_v general_o use_v before_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o aaronical_a priesthood_n and_o it_o be_v very_o improbable_a that_o he_o who_o be_v so_o eminent_o the_o priest_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n shall_v never_o offer_v the_o accustom_a sacrifice_n but_o also_o because_o christ_n sacrifice_n be_v a_o animate_v one_o who_o be_v a_o priest_n after_o melchisedeck_n order_n and_o not_o of_o the_o order_n of_o aaron_n heb._n 7.11_o so_o that_o if_o the_o difference_n between_o these_o two_o order_n consist_v in_o this_o difference_n of_o their_o sacrifice_n christ_n must_v be_v rather_o a_o priest_n of_o the_o aaronick_a than_o the_o melchisedecan_n order_n and_o how_o can_v the_o act_n of_o the_o priesthood_n of_o aaron_n be_v typical_a of_o our_o saviour_n which_o be_v melchisedecan_n as_o the_o scripture_n all_o along_o make_v they_o if_o they_o be_v of_o a_o different_a nature_n from_o those_o of_o melchisedeck_v how_o can_v aaron_n bloody_a sacrifice_n be_v typical_a of_o our_o saviour_n priesthood_n which_o be_v after_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedeck_v if_o melchisedeck_n priesthood_n admit_v no_o bloody_a sacrifice_n as_o to_o the_o act_n of_o their_o priesthood_n therefore_o for_o any_o thing_n that_o appear_v to_o the_o contrary_a these_o two_o order_n be_v the_o same_o but_o in_o this_o they_o apparent_o differ_v that_o whereas_o the_o regal_a power_n be_v unite_v to_o melchisedeck_n priesthood_n it_o be_v whole_o separate_v from_o aaron_n who_o in_o all_o probability_n be_v the_o first_o high_a priest_n in_o the_o world_n that_o be_v not_o a_o king_n as_o well_o as_o a_o priest._n the_o priestly_a act_n therefore_o of_o these_o two_o different_a order_n be_v the_o same_o we_o shall_v better_o understand_v the_o nature_n of_o our_o saviour_n priesthood_n though_o it_o be_v of_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedeck_v by_o the_o account_n we_o have_v of_o the_o aaronical_a than_o by_o that_o of_o the_o

therefore_o in_o general_n consist_v in_o officiate_a for_o sinful_a man_n with_o god_n in_o order_n to_o the_o reconcile_n of_o god_n to_o they_o and_o obtain_v for_o they_o his_o favour_n and_o
