Vers. 14. the 27 day of the moneth By this it appeareth that Noe was in the arke a full yeere or yeere of dayes containing 365 dayes according to the course of the Sunne For he entred the ark the 17 day of the second moneth in the 600 yeere of his life Gen. 7. 11. 13. and there he continued till the 27 day of the second moneth in the 601 yeere of his life as the 13 and 14 verses of this 8 th Chapter shew Now the twelve moneths of the Hebrewes had 354 dayes for sixe moneths had each of them thirty dayes and the other sixe moneths had each 29 dayes which make 354 to which adde 11 dayes till the 27 of the 2 moneth full ended and there are dayes 365.

It was a holy place and sanctified the offering Mat. 23. 19. Exod. 29. 37. and so was a figure of Christ by whom we offer the sacrifice of praise alwayes to God Heb. 13. 10. 15. And it is a tradition of the Iewes that the place where Noe built this altar was the place where Abraham afterward built an Altar to offer Isaak Gen. 22. 2. and where Kain and Abel offered before See the notes on Gen. 4. 3. every cleane beast of the bullocks sheep and goats see the notes on Gen. 7. 2. So in Pirke R.

cups and two knops and two flowers in the branch of the Candlesticke Exod. 25. 34. and moreover a third flower was next to the shaft of the Candlesticke Num. 8. 4. And it had three feet And three other knops were on the branch of the Candlestick from which knops there proceedeth six branches three on the one side three on the other and in every of them branches were three bowles and a knop and a flower and all made like Almonds So there were in all two and twenty bowles and nine flowers and eleven knops And they all were requisite so that if there wanted one of these two and fortie it hindred all the rest The bowles were like the cups of Alexandria wide at the mouth and narrow at the bottome The knops were like the apples or heads of leeks somewhat long like an egge The flowers were like the flowers of Ammudinis which are like a dish whose lip is doubled on the outside The height of the Candlestick was eighteene handbredths that is three cubits The feet and the flower were three hand-bredths then two handbredths smooth then a hand-bredth wherein was a bowle a knop and a flower Then two handbredths smooth then a handbredth knop and out of it issued two branches one on this side and another on that which went up as high as the Candlesticke Then an handbredth smooth and an hand-bredth knop with two branches issuing out of it as high also as the Candlesticke Then an handbredth smooth an handbredth knop with two branches issuing from it as high as the Candlesticke Then two handbredths smooth so there remained three handbredths wherein were three bowles a knop and a flower And there was a stone before the Candlesticke wherein were three steps on which the Priest stood and trimmed the Lampes and upon it he set downe the vessell of oyle and the tongs and the snuffe-dishes when he trimmed the Lamps Other things touching the manner of trimming them and the measure of oyle in every one are noted on Exod. 27. 21. This Candlesticke figured the Law of God shining in the Tabernacle of his Church with the oyle of grace in the seven lampes which are the seven spirits of God Rev. 4. 5. The Commandement is a Lampe and the Law a light Prov. 6. 23. so is the propheticall word as a light shining in a darke place 2 Pet. 1. 19. And as the Candlesticke was of solid beaten worke and the oyle of beaten olive Levit. 24. 2. so is the preaching and practise of the Law laborious and with much affliction 2 Tim. 1. 8. and 2. 3. And the worke of Christ and of his Ministers was signified by the Priests continuall ordering and trimming of these Lamps the lighting of one Lamp from another shewed the opening and inlightning of one place of Scripture by another and the middle Lampe lighted from the fire of the Altar signified that the fountaine of all light and knowledge commeth from Christ who hath the seven spirits of God Revel 3. 1. figured by the seven lamps of fire Rev. 4. 5. The varietie of cups knops and flowers taught the sundry things that are in the scriptures histories precepts prophesies parables c. And as seven is the number of perfection so by the seven branches and lamps the full perfection of the Scriptures is shewed which are able to make us wise unto salvation through the faith which is in Christ Iesus and perfect throughly furnished unto every good worke 2 Tim. 3. 15 16 17. This Candlestick might also be a figure of the Church shining as lights in the world and holding forth the word of life Phil. 2. 15 16. as the seven golden Candl-sticks in Revel 1. 20. were the seven Churches in Asia in the middest of which Christ our great high Priest walked to order their light and to powre the oyle of his grace into their lamps which Church is in nature one in Christ though it hath many particular Churches as branches out of one stocke the chiefe branch whereof was the Church of Israel from whose light we all receive light they having first received the Oracles of God See Rom. 3. 2. and 11. 16 17 18 c. 2 Pet. 1. 19. So the state of the Church by the word and Spirit of God is set forth by a vision of the Candlestick whose lamps are filled with oyle from two olive trees Zach. 4. Rev. 11. and Iohn the Baptist a preacher of the word of grace is called a burning and shining lamp Ioh. 5 3 5. the patterne Hebr. the shew or vision appearance that is the patterne shewed as Exod. 25. 40. This teacheth that no other ground or forme of doctrine or of the Church is to be brought in than that which is shewed of God 2 Tim. 1. 13. 1 Tim. 1. 3 4. 3. 15. Mat. 28. 20. Eccl. 12. 11 12. Vers. 6. Levites the residue of the tribe of Levi besides the Priests whose consecration is described in Levit. 8. unto whom the other Levites were adjoyned to assist them in the service of Gods Sanctuarie as was signified before in Num. 3. 6. c. but their consecration is shewed in this chapter from among the sonnes hereupon the Levites as in office so in name are distinguished from the other Israelites as are also the Priests from the Levites 1 Chron. 9. 2. the Israelites the Priests the Levites and the Nethinims cleanse them or purifie them after the manner following This though it were the dutie of all the people to be cleane and pure when they came to the Sanctuary 2 Chron. 23. 19. 2 Cor. 7. 1. yet in speciall manner it belonged to the ministers which did beare the vessels of the Lord Esai 52. 11. Ezr. 6. 20. so the Apostles among other graces wherby they approved themselves as the ministers of God nameth one to be by purenesse 2 Cor. 6. 4. 6. Verse 7. Sin-water that is the water of purification from sin which was made with the ashes of an heiffer whereof the Law is after given in Nu● 19. As the sacrifice that maketh expiation for 〈◊〉 is called the sin offring so this purifying water is called the water of sinne which the Greeke expoundeth the water of purification And this water sprinkled on the uncleane sanctified to the purifying of the flesh but figured the bloud of Christ which purgeth the conscience from dead work● to serve the living God Heb. 9. 13 14. all their 〈◊〉 in Greeke all their body that is shave off all the●r haire which was another signe of purification as in the cleansing of the Leper he shaved off all his haire Lev. 14. 8 9. and in the cleansing of the polluted Nazirite Num. 6. 9. So the Levites which were in themselves as lepers that is sinners are cleansed through faith in Christ. their clothes their garments an other rite used in purifying the uncleane Exod. 19. 10. Levit. 14. 9. and 15. 5. By these three rites were signified the purifying from
