the captivity and first what he did for Ioshua the Highpriest as a type to Vers 8. Secondly what he did for the Church in the three last verses In the type againe these things are to be considered First how Christ our Advocate taketh the defence of Ioshua against Satan Vers 2 and then how he pardoneth him of his sinnes and sanctifieth him vers 3.4.5 and lastly the promise which Christ the Angell of the covenant maketh unto him if he walke in his wayes Vers 6.7.8 The accuser is Satan the accused is Ioshua and the defender is Christ Satan the accuser is described by his name 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Satan Adversarius saluti hominum a 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 adversari odio ●●bere hee is called Satan that is qui intestino odio prosequitur who hath a deadly hatred against the sonnes of men the place where he stood when he accused was at Ioshua's right hand for it was the manner of the accusers amongst the Iewes to stand at the right hand of the party accused when they did accuse Psal 109.6 The accuser stood at the right hand of the party accused Let Satan stand at his right hand and when he shall be iudged let him be condemned The thing which he accused him of was because hee stood in filthy apparell before the Lord. The opinion of Hierome concerning Ioshua Hierome is of this mind that Ioshua the Highpriest married a strange woman contrary to the Commandement of the Lord as the rest of the Iewes did Ezr. 10.18 And he holdeth that Satan did accuse him justly here because he had married a stranger as well as the rest but we are rather to incline to Ionathan the Paraphrast in this who Paraphraseth it thus Filios habebat qui duxerant uxores non convenientes sacerdotio hoc est alienigenas ipse vero non corripiebat eos that is hee had sonnes who married wives who were not lawfull for the Priests to marry and yet he reproved not them this may seeme rather to be the cause for which he was blamed as we may see Ezr. 10.18 And amongst the sonnes of the Priests there were some that had taken strange wives namely of the sonnes of Ioshua the sonne of Iozedek and it was for this that his priestly Garments were stained And he shewed me Ioshua Foure things are to be considered in this name Ioshua First that Ioshua was called Hoshea and Moses changed this name and called him Iehoshua and the Greekes called him Iesus Act. 7.45 The opinion of the Iewes concerning the change of Ioshua's name The Iewes say that the letter jod י was taken from the name Iehova and was put to Hoshea and then he was called Ioshua as the letter he ה was taken from Iehoua and put to Abram and then he was called Abraham but if this their observation were true then it should follow that when the Lord tooke the letter jod י from a name that it should be for the disgrace of the person as Sarai the Lord changed her name and called her Sarah this change was for the credit of Sarah and yet jod י was taken from it before she was my princesse but now she is a princesse simply when Davids incestuous sonne Amnon was called Amminon 2 Sam. 13.2 Was the letter jod added for his credit No 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 but the reason why this name was changed was this to signifie the authority which the Lord had over him for the imposition of new names signifieth authority in him that imposeth as Ioseph's name was changed by the King of Egypt and he was called Zaphnath-paaneah To impose or change a name a signe of authority Gen. 41.45 So Eliacim's name was changed by Pharao Neco he was called Iehojakim so Ananias Misael and Hazarias their names were changed in Babel so Simon 's name was changed into Peter Iacobs name was changed into Israel So this name Hoshea was changed into Ioshua Num. 13.16 and Revel 2.17 To him that over commeth I will give a new name Secondly Moses gave him this name by the Spirit of God either foreseeing that he should be his successor and save the people from their enemies the Canaanites or praying for him that the Lord would save him from the wicked spyes as Salo. Iarchi saith Thirdly the Seventy translate this name Ioshua alwayes Iesus Whether may this name Iesus be given to any in the Church now as Colos 4.11 Quest Salute Iesus which is called Iustus This name Ioshua contracted into Iesus by the Greeks Answ was an usuall name amongst the Iewes but now when it is appropriated to Iesus none may bee called Iesus but Christ himselfe for he both preserveth alive and giveth life the Hebrewes take vivificare vel in vita conservare vel vitae restituere Num. 22.33 so Num. 31.15 Num vivificastis omnem foeminam have ye kept the women alive so Luc. 13.34 Ioshua might have done this but vivificare is vitae restituare to restore to life againe and this Ioshua could not doe but Iesus who quickeneth the dead and restoreth them to life againe 1 Cor. 15.22 And Satan standing at his right hand The right hand was the chiefe place for the understanding of this situation amongst the Iewes marke first How to understand the situation at the right hand when three are going together or sitting together he that is in the middle place is in the chiefe place he that standeth upon his right hand is in the second place and he that standeth on his left hand is in the third place and in this sense we are to understand these places Hee shall set the sheepe at his right hand and the goates at his left hand Matth. 25.33 Christ is in the highest place the sheepe in the second place and the goates in the third so the mother of Zebedees children Matth. 20.21 desired that one of her sonnes might stand at Christs right hand and another at his left hand Christ is in the highest place hee that stands at his right hand in the second place and he that stands at the left hand is in the third place Secondly when the most eminent person sitteth he that sitteth at his right hand is in the second place Example Salomon sate upon a throne and his mother at his right hand 1 King 2.19 Salomon was in the first place and his mother in the second So Christ sitteth at the right hand of the father that is in the second place next to the father for we cannot imagine that Christ as mediator sits above his father The right hand is the more excellent being compared with the left Thirdly when the two hands are compared together then the right hand is the more excellent and so Paul saith They gave unto us the right hand of fellowship Galat. 2.9 So Benjamin is called the sonne of the right hand and Salomon Eccles 10.2 saith that the wise mans heart is in his right side
