For the Law had the shaddow of good things to come and not the very Image of the things themselues LONDON Printed by G. P. for Iohn Budge and are to be sold at his shop in Pauls Churchyard at the signe of the Greene Dragon 1620. TO THE RIGHT REVEREND MOST GRAVE LEARned and worthy Prelate and Father in GOD My Lord Bishop of Winchester AS in the Creation darknes went before light or as the dawning precedes the brightnesse of the day as Ioseph obscurely at first behaued himselfe vnto his Brethren and Moses couered with a vaile stood before the people Euen so Right Reuerend in the detection of the glorious worke of mans Redemption mysticall promises went before mercifull performance darke shaddowes were the fore-runners of that bright substance obscure types were harbingers to that glorious Anti-type the Messiah who was comming after and Leui's Law with its figuratiue and vailed Ceremonies was the viue resemblance painting and pointing out that cleere Lampe and Lambe of God the expresse Image and ingrauen Character of the Father So that as folded in swaddling clouts and lying in a Crib hee was seene and shewne vnto the Wise-men that came from the East so inuolued in typicall ordinances and lurking vnder shaddowish signes hee was offered and exhibited vnto the Iewes that saw his day but afarre off the eclipsed and dimme light of the Moone as it were as yet onely glimmering or the twinkling brightnesse of starry Lamps as yet onely dazedly glistering Vntill the true Phosphorus that glorious Sunne himselfe did arise in the Horizon of our humanitie dispersing the beames of his bounty and manifesting himselfe to be that onely light of the world promised to them that sit in the Region of darknesse for comfort and illumination and to the ioy of all in heauen and earth the Lambe himselfe onely opening that sealed Booke and vnfolding the truth of former hid mysteries Then that Ladder of Heauen and Leader to glory was more brightly seene then Iacob saw the same formerly in a dreame Then that true Tree of Life planted in the earth of our nature was plainly viewed without the limits of that heauenly Paradise Then that heauenly Manna which the Father gaue from aboue most aboundantly offered it selfe vnto the refreshment of all hungring Israelites And that blessed Rock from Citie to Citie and place to place following them most cleerely gushed out the comfortable waters of Life for euery one to drinke and neuer to thirst after Then the true curing Serpent was graciously re-erected on high for all men to behold with the eye of Faith and then all the Mosaicall sacrifices and rudimentall Rites which like the Baptist pointed out Christ Iesus to bee that Lambe of God that takes away the sinnes of the world vnfolded themselues in their former darke shaddowish signification and while they remained in vigour albeit like Zacharie before his sonnes birth they were dumbe and obscure signers yet ceasing and in their departure the substantiall body filling vp the roome with their eternall farewell opening their mouth as it were they said that which before they signed and gaue a heartie congratulation and welcome to their accomplishing verity as night giues place to day Leui thus yeelding to a more excellent High Priest and Hagar the bondwoman vnto her free Dame Sarah Herein how Euangelicall light hath discouered the meaning of Legall obscuritie and how Aarons Bells sounded neuer but Christ Iesus and him Crucified nor his siluer Trumpets but the ioyfull Iubile of soules freedome his many sacrifices pointing out that one all-sufficient And how the successiue diuersitie of types of sundry things places persons and actions c. from time to time couchedly involued and cunningly conueyed the blessed mysterie and deepe secret of the abysse of vnsearchable loue to mankinde and extense of mercy past comprehending as by secret water-spouts from posterity to posterity for continuance of the vigorous hope of the faithfull who with Simeon longed to see the Saluation of the Lord Herein I say the paines that I haue taken is briefely for the case of the Reader to point onely as it were at the same in order as they occurre in Scripture ioyning with succinct breuity to auoid tediousnes as great plainnesse and perspicuitie as I could to auoid obscurenesse And comparing some things for conueniencie of case onely which prettily may be so compared wherein I acknowledge in the purpose of the Holy Ghost a typicall resemblance euer of any answerable verity is not to be sought And keeping still in all I hope the Analogy of faith as the right measure of the Temple the patterne on the Mount and iust Ballance of the Sanctuary This Treatise then Right Reuerend and most worthy Prelate as a testimony of my most indeared affection I haue dedicate to your Lordship and shrowded the same vnder the wings of your Learned patrocinie by experience hauing in my own person found especially at your Lordships late beeing in Scotland yet more thē courteous regard and most kinde respectiuenesse euer vsuall by your Lordship towards all but chiefely towards those who are Fellow-labourers in the Sacred dispensation af that holy mysterie with you Whereby not onely I but the hearts of many with me who had that happy occasion of your Lordships acquaintance are so warmed though vnder a cold Climate and inflamed with the Reuerend memory of your Lordships humanitie and other singular holy vertues and rare gifts wherewith your good GOD hath indued you and which as a strong chaine hath linked so that singular regard of your Prince vnto you as that sooner I perswade my selfe their bodies shall beginne to resolue into ashes then that fire of affection in their conquered and captiued hearts shall cease to bee vigorous and burne As some sparkles then my Lord hereof for my part tending and bursting forth towards the place of your Lordships residence receiue these succinct Lucubrations consecrate to your Lordships Name subiected to your Censure and to bee disposed as your Lordship shall thinke fit thereof Of whose most gentle and gracious acceptation as I rest assured So as for others I hope Christian loue and charitable affection shall be my Censurer of all regarding chiefely my honest ayme herein And where others are inabled to do better or to amend my Labours beseeching the Lord to inable them more more and to enlighten my minde with them that mine eyes being anointed with the eye-salue of his Spirit with Dauid I may know the secrets
Christ was so vnited to his humane that not onely the vertue thereof glanced inwardly in his soule and minde but outwardly also did shine most gloriously in his actions Col. 2. 3.

The measure of the Arke exceeded not the dimensions of mans proportion so that he might fadom it about Shewing thereby how Christ beeing made man dimitted himselfe to our capacitie was seene heard and handled and remaines still accessible Heb. 4. 16. 6. It had foure rings and barres whereby it was carried Signifying how Christ should be carried in the ministery of the Gospel by his faithfull Preachers to the foure corners of the earth Math. 28. 7. The barres in the rings must neuer bee seuered from the Arke So preaching and Christ must neuer be asunder but adhering to the Arke and ground stone truth must be taught Gal. 1. 8. 8. The two tables were in the Arke Signifying thereby that Christ is the end of the Law satisfying the same for vs deliuering vs from the curse thereof and making our obedience also to the Law acceptable to the Father by couering the imperfection of our workes Psal. 130. 3. Rom. 3. 21. 9. In it was the pot of Manna To shew that in Christ is the treasure of comfort spirituall nourishment and life Reu. 2. 17. Col. 3. 1. 10. In it also was Aarons Rodde that budded and bore fruit To signifie that in Christ wee haue assurance of a blessed Resurrection and that by him our rebellion is couered as also that in him Aarons Priesthood is wrapped vp and ceases Heb. 8. 11. God spake by Oracle out of the Arke To prefigure that out of the nature of man in Christ hee should speake to the world Heb. 1. 12. The Arke was an assurance of Gods presence amongst the people and God did dwell therein So Christ is the cause and assurance that God in mercy is present with vs Ioh. 17 21. and in Christ personally the Deitie did dwell 13. Where the Arke was there only it was lawfull to offer sacrifice no where else was it accepted To shew that where Christ is to wit in the Church there and through him onely our seruice is acceptable 14. By the Arke Iordan was diuided so that the people went dry and safe ouer to Canaan So by Christ a ready way is made through all the horrors of death for vs to come safely to our heauenly Kingdome Psal. 23. 4. 15. The people a great way might not come neere vnto the Arke Shewing thereby what reuerence ●…ught to bee to Christ in his Word and Sacraments Act. 10. 16. By the Arkes compassing of Iericho with the blowing of the Hornes the walls of the City fell down and by the presence thereof in battell the people were assured of victorie So where Christ cornes by the powerfull preaching of his Word Principalities and highest powers must yeeld and if he be with vs who can preuaile against vs Rom. 8. 17. When the Arke was set vp in the temple of Dagon Dagon fell and brake So where Christ comes by his Gospell of Truth Idolatry goeth downe Act. 19. 18. The Philistims were plagued at the presence of the Arke with them but Obed-Edom was blessed by hauing it with him So where Christ is in wrath their estate is dangerous but where he is in loue their blessings are with him Ioh. 17. 19. The people of Bethshemesh were fearfully punished for looking into the Arke To teach vs how dangerous it is to prye into Gods secrets vnreuealed and not bee wise according to sobrietie Rom. 12. 3. 20. After long transporting at last it was gloriously conueyed and settled in Salomons temple there still to remaine So after many iourneys and long suffering on earth Christ Iesus at last was receiued vp in glory in the holiest heauens to sit at the Fathers right hand for euer Psal. 110. 1. 24. The Arke as it typed the mysticall body of Christ 1. IT was the keeper of the testimonie So is the Church the keeper of the Scriptures 2. It was woodden but couered with pure gold So the Church is in it selfe infirme but through Christ is strengthened and beautified with grace Cant. 1. 4. 3. God was present with the Arke So is he with his Church vntill the worlds end Ioh. 14. 4. The Propitiatorie couered the Arke So doth Christs death couer the spots of his Church and the accusing of the Law Gal. 3. 13. 5. The Cherubims stood aboue the Arke So the protection of the Angels stands aboue and about the Church Heb. 1. 6. It was transportatiue euer while it was seated at last in the glorious Temple of Salomon So the Church hath no constant place on earth while it be at last settled in the glorious heauen Heb. 13. 14. 7. It had a crowne of gold about it So is the Church crowned with diuers graces and gifts heere and shall bee with the crowne of glory heereafter 1. Cor. 12. 8. It had the foure dimensions proportionably So hath the Church of Christ the depth of Faith the height of Hope the Latitude of Charitie and the Longitude of Perseuerance 9. In it was the pot of Manna Aarons Rodde So in Christs Church is the cōfort of true doctrine and regiment of whelesome discipline R●…u 11. 4. 25. The Mercy-Seat or Propitiatory Exod. 25. 17. to 23. 1. IT was called the Mercy-Seat or Propitiatorie So is Christ he in whom mercy is truely seated and hath made Propitiation for our sinnes Rom. 3. 25. 2. It was the couer of the Arke where the two Tables lay of the Law of Moses So Christ is the true couer and deliuerer of vs from the curse and accusation of the Law Rom. 3. 3. It was of pure gold Noting thereby the spotlesse holinesse of Christ Heb. 6. 26. 4. Vpon it were two Cherubims shewing that the very Angels haue their stablishment in Christ their Mediator by confirmation as also Signifying the Angels ready attendance on Christ and his Church as also figured that when we draw neere to the Mercy-Seat Christ being adopted and ingraft in him then are we ioyned to the societie of the Angels Luke 20. 5. They stretched their wings on high couering so the Mercy-Seat Figuring so the Maiestie of Christs Deitie which none in glory can behold of the very Angels but with their faces couered and shaddowing forth likewise hereby the most comfortable and sure protection of the Church Mich. 4. 11. and the readinesse to act Christs will 6. They looked down vpon the
