love_n to_o the_o jew_n in_o more_o majesty_n and_o we_o hold_v that_o a_o several_a entertainment_n be_v due_a according_o majesty_n require_v more_o external_a prostration_n and_o fear_n love_n expect_v more_o internal_a joy_n and_o confidence_n even_o in_o these_o day_n when_o we_o come_v to_o the_o church_n of_o god_n we_o ought_v to_o make_v our_o address_n with_o all_o possible_a humility_n and_o zeal_n but_o if_o god_n shall_v in_o the_o church_n appear_v in_o fire_n or_o any_o fearful_a similitude_n to_o we_o as_o he_o do_v former_o certain_o we_o ought_v to_o clea●e_n to_o the_o dust_n and_o to_o inwrap_v ourselves_o external_o in_o the_o more_o confusion_n and_o yet_o god_n be_v not_o the_o more_o true_o or_o gracious_o present_a because_o of_o that_o apparition_n second_o when_o god_n do_v ocular_o appear_v among_o the_o jew_n he_o do_v not_o at_o all_o time_n and_o in_o all_o place_n and_o of_o all_o man_n require_v the_o same_o adoration_n so_o that_o we_o may_v suppose_v that_o the_o manner_n of_o adoration_n give_v be_v not_o mere_o because_o god_n do_v appear_v but_o brcause_v god_n will_v have_v his_o apparition_n so_o entertain_v moses_n here_o do_v worship_n but_o god_n command_v the_o manner_n of_o his_o worship_n and_o in_o many_o other_o interview_n in_o scripture_n wherein_o god_n do_v grace_v both_o patriarch_n and_o prophet_n we_o do_v not_o read_v of_o any_o consecration_n of_o place_n or_o any_o such_o distinct_a adoration_n as_o this_o of_o moses_n either_o command_v by_o god_n or_o perform_v by_o man_n certain_o elijah_n when_o god_n pass_v by_o he_o and_o give_v he_o the_o beatifical_a sight_n of_o his_o backpart_n fall_v prostrate_a upon_o the_o ground_n to_o humble_a and_o debase_v himself_o before_o that_o gracious_a presence_n but_o that_o he_o perform_v any_o homage_n or_o grateful_a service_n to_o the_o place_n itself_o we_o do_v not_o read_v beside_o in_o this_o case_n of_o the_o blaze_a bush_n there_o be_v a_o command_n and_o that_o but_o temporal_a and_o we_o do_v not_o read_v that_o any_o holiness_n do_v remain_v in_o the_o bush_n after_o the_o command_n so_o also_o the_o holiness_n of_o the_o mount_n of_o the_o tabernacle_n of_o the_o temple_n as_o it_o be_v create_v by_o the_o command_n of_o god_n so_o that_o command_n have_v its_o limit_n of_o time_n by_o which_o we_o may_v observe_v in_o my_o opinion_n that_o the_o honour_n be_v rather_o political_a than_o physical_a as_o i_o may_v so_o say_v and_o without_o special_a command_n have_v not_o be_v due_a in_o such_o a_o manner_n or_o degree_n but_o say_v d._n laurence_n after_o a_o apparition_n in_o luz_n jacob_n anoint_a a_o pillar_n and_o build_v a_o altar_n and_o change_v the_o name_n of_o the_o place_n from_o luz_n to_o bethel_n jacob_n do_v so_o and_o do_v religious_o in_o do_v so_o but_o yet_o if_o we_o suppose_v jacob_n have_v no_o especial_a command_n to_o do_v so_o it_o be_v not_o consequent_a that_o jacob_n have_v sin_v if_o he_o have_v not_o do_v so_o beside_o jacob_n do_v erect_v those_o monument_n of_o honour_n not_o only_o in_o celebration_n of_o that_o ground_n whereon_o he_o be_v repose_v when_o he_o behold_v the_o angel_n ascend_v and_o descend_v but_o also_o of_o that_o radiant_a gate_n of_o heaven_n which_o open_v itself_o to_o he_o to_o inebriate_v his_o soul_n with_o such_o celestial_a beautiful_a spectacle_n and_o last_o jacob_n do_v choose_v that_o place_n whereon_o to_o worship_v god_n but_o this_o do_v not_o imply_v that_o jacob_n do_v perform_v any_o reverence_n at_o all_o or_o honour_n to_o the_o place_n itself_o and_o so_o if_o he_o have_v do_v the_o like_a in_o another_o place_n upon_o another_o occasion_n he_o have_v do_v well_o three_o the_o jewish_a honour_n and_o reverence_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o manner_n of_o it_o be_v chief_o negative_a and_o except_o in_o case_n of_o divine_a worship_n and_o civil_a worship_n we_o read_v of_o no_o other_o the_o ark_n be_v so_o holy_a that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v approach_v or_o touch_v but_o with_o such_o and_o such_o condition_n so_o the_o bush_n which_o god_n presence_n inflame_v it_o be_v too_o holy_a for_o too_o near_a access_n a●●_z the_o ground_n about_o it_o too_o precious_a to_o be_v tread_v upon_o with_o unclean_a shoe_n but_o who_o ever_o read_v of_o any_o bow_n or_o kneel_v or_o positive_a adoration_n attribute_v to_o the_o ark_n or_o bush_n or_o temple_n or_o any_o other_o thing_n under_o the_o jewish_a discipline_n doctor_n laurence_n indeed_o do_v produce_v a_o three_o kind_n of_o worship_n betwixt_o divine_a and_o civil_a which_o he_o call_v reverential_a or_o religious_a but_o he_o do_v not_o full_o prove_v what_o kind_n of_o condition_n it_o have_v whether_o it_o be_v positive_a or_o negative_a internal_a or_o external_a or_o how_o far_o it_o do_v extend_v or_o how_o far_o it_o be_v due_a to_o 〈◊〉_d relative_a instrument_n for_o god_n sake_n wherefore_o if_o the_o doctor_n mean_v this_o negative_a kind_n of_o worship_n which_o consist_v in_o distance_n and_o forbearance_n for_o reverential_a it_o be_v most_o evident_a that_o this_o kind_n of_o worship_n be_v never_o in_o use_n since_o christ_n time_n as_o to_o the_o rigor_n of_o it_o nor_o can_v be_v now_o introduce_v without_o great_a absurdity_n and_o superstition_n four_o the_o honour_n and_o worship_n of_o god_n i●_z not_o to_o be_v weigh_v in_o human_a balance_n and_o ●s_n not_o great_a or_o less_o according_a to_o that_o proportion_n which_o we_o call_v arithmetical_a or_o geometrical_a moses_n be_v in_o the_o bosom_n of_o god_n far_o above_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o people_n be_v not_o to_o be_v suppose_v to_o honour_n or_o worship_n god_n less_o by_o his_o familiarity_n than_o the_o mean_a of_o the_o people_n which_o lay_n grovel_v and_o tremble_v at_o the_o foot_n of_o god_n and_o dare_v not_o approach_v the_o very_a outmost_a and_o low_a border_n of_o the_o mountain_n some_o resemblance_n we_o have_v of_o this_o in_o prince_n court_n for_o it_o be_v not_o presumption_n in_o some_o favourite_n to_o be_v cover_v in_o the_o king_n presence_n or_o to_o approach_v the_o bedchamber_n though_o it_o be_v almost_o capital_a in_o other_o and_o yet_o where_o prince_n be_v so_o familiar_o honour_v they_o may_v be_v sincere_o honour_v without_o all_o sauciness_n and_o such_o familiarity_n may_v stand_v as_o compatible_a with_o internal_a humility_n as_o the_o most_o debafe_a subjection_n in_o 〈◊〉_d man_n so_o if_o god_n do_v admit_v moses_n into_o familiarity_n into_o such_o familiarity_n as_o abate_v of_o external_a prostration_n and_o distance_n and_o fear_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o consequent_a that_o moses_n be_v hereby_o transport_v beyond_o the_o limit_n of_o internal_a awe_n and_o zeal_n and_o humiliation_n and_o if_o it_o be_v so_o among_o the_o jew_n themselves_o in_o those_o rigorous_a time_n shall_v it_o not_o be_v so_o now_o among_o christian_n when_o christ_n iron_n sceptre_n be_v turn_v to_o a_o golden_a sheep-book_n in_o his_o hand_n in_o the_o jewish_a worship_n there_o be_v fear_n but_o not_o without_o joy_n in_o the_o christian_a worship_n there_o be_v joy_n but_o not_o without_o some_o fear_n for_o as_o fear_n be_v more_o predominant_a in_o they_o so_o joy_n be_v in_o we_o why_o be_v our_o saviour_n reign_n over_o we_o now_o call_v in_o the_o scripture_n the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n certain_o in_o comparison_n of_o that_o discipline_n which_o the_o jew_n live_v under_o for_o in_o comparison_n of_o the_o jewish_a which_o be_v more_o earthly_a our_o worship_n now_o be_v like_o that_o of_o the_o triumphant_a saint_n in_o heaven_n where_o joy_n be_v predominant_a and_o not_o fear_v wherefore_o it_o be_v not_o right_o object_v by_o doctor_n laurence_n when_o he_o expostulate_v thus_o shall_v god_n lose_v part_n of_o his_o honour_n from_o we_o by_o send_v his_o son_n to_o we_o must_v there_o be_v less_o holiness_n in_o the_o church_n where_o christ_n be_v in_o truth_n sacrifice_v by_o himself_o than_o where_o he_o be_v sacrifice_v in_o a_o type_n or_o shadow_n by_o aaron_n in_o the_o temple_n i_o answer_v no_o god_n lose_v no_o honour_n the_o church_n lose_v no_o holiness_n although_o the_o rigorous_a worship_n of_o the_o jew_n which_o consist_v in_o distance_n and_o terror_n and_o forbearance_n be_v mitigate_v by_o the_o mild_a sweet_a and_o peaceful_a reign_n of_o our_o saviour_n over_o we_o we_o worship_v with_o more_o joy_n and_o confidence_n than_o moses_n do_v moses_n then_o the_o jew_n the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n than_o we_o yet_o neither_o moses_n nor_o we_o nor_o the_o glorify_a saint_n diminish_v but_o add_v rather_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o if_o any_o man_n now_o
