Altar Damase being none other then gestus orant is vel bene dicentis Rivet in Gen. exercit 48. §. ul quo manu imposit â persona indicatur pro quâ preces benedictiones funduntur ut impetretur gratia The gesture of him that prayed or blessed whereby the hand being laid on the person for whom prayers or blessings were poured forth was pointed out De Baptis cont Donatist lib. 3. cap. 16. Nihil aliud est inquit Augustin nisi-oratio super hominem It is none other saith Augustine then prayer over a man And it is divided by some into these four species Curatoriam Consecratoriam Confirmatoriam Reconsiliatoriam But the several kinds according to the various ends and uses of it may be collected and will best appear from those places of Scripture wherein we find mention to be made of it And upon enquiry we shall find that it was made use of 1. In the Old Testament and that upon sundry occasions 1. In Benediction or blessing of persons So the Patriarch Jacob in blessing the sons of Joseph laid his hands upon their heads as Gen. 48.14 Pelarg. in loc 15 symbolum erat gratiae coelestis quae ceu largissima manu a deo conferebatur in pios It was a sign of coelestial grace which as it were with a most bountiful hand was conferred upon the godly 2. In Consecration and Designation of persons called to holy Functions So Num. 8.10 thou shalt bring the Levites before the Lord and the children of Israel shall put their hands upon the Levites They were by this sign to put the charge and service of the Church upon the Levites Ainsworth in loc and to Consecrate them unto God in their name So also was Joshua Ordained by Moses to succeed him in his government as Numb 27.18 The Lord said unto Moses Take thee Joshua the son of Nun a man in whom is the spirit and lay thine hand upon him together wherewith probable it is that he received a greater measure of the Spirit fitting him for that high office whereunto he was called as those words do seem to imply Deut. 34.9 Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom for Moses had laid his hands upon him Pelarg. in loc Majore auctus est Sapientae Spiritu plus quàm anteà animatus ob intervonientem manuum impositionem quae non in ne fuit gratiae coelests 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 He was inriched with a larger Spirit of wisdom and more animated then before for or by the intervention of Imposition of hands which was no empty Symbol of celestial Grace 3. In Oblation or offering up of their sacrifices Levit. 8.14 He brought the bullock for the sin-offering and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the bullock for the sin-offering the like is said of the Levites Num. 18.12 Professi eoritu se peccatis renunciantes Pelarg. in loc deonerare illa in Christum factum pro nobis peccatum Professing by that rite that renouncing their sins they did lay the burden of them upon Christ that was made sin for us according to that in Levit. 16.21 4. In bearing Witnesse as Levit. 24.14 Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head and let all the Congregation stone him Willet in loc to signifie the truth of their testimony using also a kind of Imprecation that his sin might light upon his head 2. It was made use of also under the New Testament and that 1. In Benediction or blessing as Mar. 10.16 He took the young children up in his arms put his hands upon them Cartwright Harmon and blessed them Vt impositione manuum precatione ad Deum pro illis bona reportarent Deum pro illis precando gratiam dona coelestia in illos contulit That by Imposition of hands and prayer to God for them they might obtain good things by praying to God for them he conferred grace and heavenly gifts upon them 2. In curing diseases and healing the sick Mar. 6.5 and he could do no mighty work there save that he laid his hands on a few sick folks and healed them which is one of the signs promised to follow those that should believe in the name of Christ Mark 16.18 they shall lay their hands on the si●k and they shall recover And thus accordingly did Paul cure of his feaver the father of Publius Acts 28.8 3. In ordination or setting persons apart unto Ecclesiastical offices Thus was Timothy Ordained by laying on of the hands of the Presbytery 1 Tim. 4.14 neglect not the gift that is in thee which was given thee by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the Presbytery Pisrat Cornel lapid in loc 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 i.e. Donum facultatem munus d●cendi verbum Dei The gift i.e. power the office of Preaching the word of God which the Lord was graciously pleased to call him unto and furnish him for Thus also the apostle giving him a charge to be careful and circumspect whom he admitted to office he so expresseth himself 1 Tim. 5.22 Lay hands suddenly on no man neither be partaker of other mens sins Impositio manuum Ordinationem significat Calv. in loc prohibet enim ne quem minùs adhuc probatum nimiâ facilitate admittat Imposition of hands signifies Ordination for he forbids him too easily to admit any one that is not sufficiently proved So Acts 13.3 and when they had fasted and prayed and layd their hands on them they sent them away Unless we understand this place seeing these were in office before of their solemn mission about that special work which the Holy Ghost had designed them unto Nam solenne hoc Ordinarium fuit Judaeis Cav in loc ut quoties aliquem Deo commendarent manus impone●ent For this was usual and ordinary among the Jews that as often as they would commend any one to God they would lay on hands 4. In Confirmation and prayer for the establishment of such in the faith as had made a publick confession of the same for the satifaction of the Church whereof mention is made Heb. 6.1 which Scripture that in the judgment of Expositors it containes and intends this thing we shall come in due place to shew 5. To all which we may add one case more wherein after the Apostles times this rite of Imposition of hands was practised in the Church viz. In the reconciling of penitents and receiving such into the Church as had been baptized by heriticks Gregor Epist lib. 9. cap. 61. Ab antiquâ Patrum institutions didicimus ut quilibet qui apud heresim in nomine Trinitatis Baptizantur cum ad sanctam Ecclesiam redeunt aut unctione Chrysmatis aut impositione manus aut solâ professione fidei ad sinum matris Ecclesiae revocentur We have learned from an
