A49971	Orbis miraculum, or, The temple of Solomon pourtrayed by Scripture-light wherein all its famous buildings, the pompous worship of the Jewes, with its attending rites and ceremonies, the several officers employed in that work, with their ample revenues, and the spiritual mysteries of the Gospel vailed under all, are treated at large.	Lee, Samuel, 1625-1691.	1659 (1659)	Wing L903C; ESTC R41591	488,038	394

already I am somewhat the more confirmed in this conception because after the praecept of making all the curious vestments of Aaron when Moses is commanded to put them on in the next (b) Exod. 29.5 c. Chapter There is no mention made of this Vrim and Thummim Again when the ingenious Artificers Bezaleel and Aholiah are mentioned to be at (a) Exod. 39.21 c. work upon these choise vestments of the High-Priest we have no recital at all of the making of any such thing as Urim and Thummim True it is which I must not omit that in Leviticus when Moses brings his brother Aaron and clothes him with all his Gorgeous attire that there is mention made of his (b) Lev. 8.8 putting on the Breast-plate the Urim and Thummim But yet we must remember that the word there in the Hebrew is no other radically then what was spoken to before in the first place of Exodus and it is 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 dedit and he gave or affixed to it this excellent qualification by the Commandement of God that it should be for the manifestation of the decisive and determinate mind and will of God in all controversies and enquiries which they might lawfully bring before his Majesty Besides in that place there is no mention at all of the 12 Stones but in room thereof the Vrim and Thummim whereas the Breast-plate it self was particularly described Exod. 29.15 distinct from the stones that were set in it To conclude then this signified Typically the Revelation of the mind of God unto his Church by Jesus Christ the great High-Priest of our intercession unto whom all the Prophets and Apostles do give witnesse For the stones did cease to shine and give forth any radiant lustre in the dayes of Josephus when Christ the true High-Priest was manifest in the flesh as he himself doth testifie l. 3. Antiq. So much may then suffice to have spoken to this excellent and mysterious Piece I shall now come to the last Ornament of the Priests and the High-Priest which was to be about their heads and is the 8th in number 8th The 8th and last parcel of Priestly-aray respecting the Sons of Aaron and the inferiour Priests is called a (c) Exod. 28.40 Bonnet for Glory and for Beauty The matter of it was (d) Exod. 39.28 fine linnen The form or fashion of it seems to be hinted in the Hebrew word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 which is derived from 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Scyphus a great cup or goblet that 's round with a copped Cover (e) Ainsworth p. 117. as Mr. Ainsworth observes out of the Hebrew records that the Bonnets were of linnen Cloth wrapped about the head in a round and high crown'd fashion according to the manner of the East The High-Priest's covering is called by a different name though of the same matter (a) Exod. 29.28 fine linnen 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Cidaris from 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Circumvolvere to rowle about the difference being onely this as the former Author hath recited out of Jewish writers that whereas the former for the common and ordinary Priest● was round and copped this was more flat and close to ●he head Much to the same purpose doth (b) Hottingeri jus Hebraeene Hottinger speak out of the Hebrew records that the former was like a Head piece this last for the High-Priest was like the headgeare of a woman somewhat long behind and closer on the crown of the head Besides he had a holy (c) Ezod 29.6 Crown upon the Mitre and in the (d) Ver. 39.30 plate of the crown for so it is called was graven Holinesse to the Lord. The word is 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 a flowre that is a flowred plate of gold bound to the mitre with a blew lace and reached but from ear to ear on the fore part of the head in the fashion of the Crowns of some of the Roman Emperors in their coines being indented Diadems of Gold Here I might shew how the Papists have received the attire of their Bishops and Priests from the Jews and particularly their Mitres which they have appointed to be made with two hornes as (e) Polydor. Virg. de inventoribus rerum l. 4. c. 7. p. 285. Edit Lug. Bat. 1644. Polydor Virgil one of their own Authors hath attested Adduntur duo Cornua quoniam Moses acceptis tabulis quibus mandata Dei inscripta erant visus est suis cornutus Two horns are added because Moses appeared horned to the people when he received the Tables in which the Commandements of God were written When alas the Hebrew Text is miserably wrested which tells us that the skin of (f) Exod. 34.30 Moses his face shined in these words 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 The skin of his face shined the word being indeed deduced from a horn that is it was clear like a horn But to leave this discourse let us see what these Ornamen●s of the Head did signifie and herein we have no great task to undertake seeing the covering of the head among most N●tions is a token of Liberty and Dignity and when adorned with a Crown usually denotes Kingly and Princely Authority In which respect we may apply it to the Regal and Kingly Office of Christ and therefore it is that in one of St. Johns Visions we find one like unto the Son of Man sitting upon a Cloud (a) Rev. 14.14 having a Golden Crown upon his head But now wherefore the High-Priest appeared before God with this Golden Crown inscribed with Holinesse to the Lord the reasons are given at large which we shall in 3 particulars briefly apply to the Lord Jesus 1. The (b) Exod. 28.38 Text saies that this excellent Ornament was commanded for the High-Priest to use for this end that he should bear the iniquity of the holy things of the Childen of Israel It is not said the iniquity of their grosse and more scandalous sins such were to be expiated by Sacrifice whereof there is no doubt that they cannot be pardoned without Christ's appearance before God on the behalf of his People For (c) Heb. 9.22 without blood there is no remission and Christ in his mediation doth impetrate and obtain the pardon of all their sins for which his blood did satisfie But to shew that the Saints contract impurities even in their most holy services There are no sins so small as to be in their own nature venial No! all sins are mortal if God should vindicate his Justice upon us according to the guilt of them and our merit of wrath But to mind the people of God even of the least sins wandring thoughts in duty want of zeal warmth and fervency in their holy approaches We want a High-Priest even to deprecate God's wrath in behalf of such For as his death did work out mercy and pardon for all the sins of the Elect So likewise doth he continually interpell
