A95869	Christ and the Church: or Parallels, in three books. In the first ye have the harmony between Christ and the foregoing types, by which he was fore-shadowed in the Old Testament, both persons and things. In the second the agreement between Christ and other things, to which he is compared in the holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testament. In the third the agreement between the Church and the types, by which it was foreshadowed in the Old Testament; and other resemblances, by which it is set forth in the holy Scriptures.

sinners Hear Junius Mediatio Mosis fuit umbra quaedam mediationis Christi corpus suum in Christo obtinet Parallel l. 1. parall 89. The mediation of Moses was a certain shadow of the mediation of Christ and in Christ it hath its body or truth CHAP. IX Christs Priesthood and Aarons THe Apostle in the Epistle to the Hebrews compares these together but so that he acknowleges and proves the Preisthood of Christ to be farre more excellent then the Priesthood of Aaron and that in many particulars 1. They that are the Sons of Levi Heb. 7.5 who recieve the Office of the Priesthood have a commandement to take Tythes of the people according to the Law that is of their brethren Vers 6. but He whose descent is not reckoned from them received Tythes Vers 9. of Abraham and so Levi who received Tythes payd Tythes in Abraham for He was in the loines of Abraham Vers 10. when Melchisedech met him 2. Aaron came of Levi but He of whom these things are spoken sayes the Apostle pertains to another Tribe Vers 13. of which no man gave attendance at the Altar for its manifest that our Lord sprang out of Judah Vers 14. of which Tribe Moses spake nothing concerning the Priesthood 3. Vers 16. Those Priests were made after the Law of a carnal commandment but Christ after the power of anendlesse life Ver. 21 Psal 110.4 4. Those Priests were made without an oath but Christ with an oath by him that said unto him The Lord hath sworn c. Vers 23. 5. They were many Priests because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death but this man because He continues for ever Vers 24. hath an unchangeable Priesthood 6. they were all sinners even Aaron himself had his sins Vers 26. as the History makes it manifest But such an high Priest have we who is holy harmlesse and undefiled separate from sinners 7. Those high Priests needed to offer sacrifice first for themselves Vers 27. and then for the people it s not so with this high Priest for He was void of sin Vers 28. 8. The Law made men high Priests which have infirmity but the word of the oath which is since the Law makes the Son scil high Priest so that the other Priests were meer men infirm men but this high Priest our Lord Jesus Christ is Immanuel 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 God and man in one person 9. Other Priests sacrificed bruit creatures Oxen Sheep Vers 27. Goates but our high Priest offered up himself Oh excellent sacrifice Heb 9.6 Vers 7. 10. The priests namely the inferior Priests went alway into the first Tabernacle accomplishing the service of God but into the second went the high priest alone once every year not without blood which he offered for himself and for the errors of the people Vers 11. but Christ being made an high Priest of good things to come by a greater and more perfect Tabernacle not made with hands that is not of this building neither by the blood of Goates and Calves but by his own blood Vers 12. he entred in once into the holy place not into the holy places made with hands which are figures of the true but into heaven it self Vers 24. now to appear in the presence of God for us 11. Vers 25. The high priest enters into the holy Place every year with the blood of others but Christ needs not to offer himself often for then as the Apostle argues Vers 26. must He often have suffered since the foundation of the world but now once in the end of the world hath He appeared to take away sin by the sacrifice of himself And then he amplifies it by a comparison As sayes he Vers 27.28 it s appointed unto men once to dye and then comes the judgment so Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many and unto them that look for him shall He appear the second time unto salvation 12. The sacrifices Heb. 10.1 which they offred year by year continually could not make the people perfect the Apostle proves it two wayes 1. for then sayes the Apostle Vers 2. would they not have ceased to be offered As if he had sayd they would and he proves the consequence because the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sin but now in those sacrifices there is a remembrance of sins every year 2. Ab impossibili for sayes he Vers 3. its impossible Vers 4. that the blood of Buls and of Goates should take away sin So inefficacious were all the Legal Sacrifices But then he addes concerning the efficacy of Christs Sacrifice by way of opposition But this man Vers 12. after he had offered one Sacrifice for sins for ever sate down on the right hand of God And then he adds this as the reason Vers 14. for by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified Thus farre I have traced the Apostle in his Parallel now hear others St. Chrysostome takes notice of this difference between them that the Priest under the Law was Priest not King but Christ is both King and Priest as also Melchisedech was King of Salem and Priest of the most high God Among you sayes he 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 c. Apud vos regnum sacerdotium distincta sunt in Christo autem utrumque conjunctum est copulatum To. 6. serm de uno legislat speaking to the Jewes the Kingdom and the Pristhood were divided each from other but in Christ both of them are joyned together Sibrandus Lubhertus takes notice of some of these differences In sacerdotio Veteris Testamenti fiebant quotidie cruenta sacrificia in sacerdotio autem N. Testamenti non est nisi unum cruentum sacrificium idque non nisi semel oblatum est nec soepius offerri debuit In sacerdotio Vet. Test summus sacerdos quotannis semel ingrediebatur in Sanctum Sanctorum quod manufactum erat Sed summus sacerdos N. Test non in S.

Test sacerdos hostia reipsa unum idem sunt Jesus Christus enim est summus sacerdos idem est ipsa hostia Ille enim seipsum obtulit Patri in remissionem omnium peccatorum Sed quid opus est verbis Ipsa scriptura dicit inter summum sacerdotem Vet. Novi Test hanc esse differentiam quod illi succeditur huic non succedatur De Papa Rom. l. 5. c. 2. p. 319. Under the Priesthood of the old Testament bloody sacrifices were every day offered but in the Priesthood of the new Testament there is but one bloody sacrifice
