and_o abolish_v answ_n to_o this_o the_o answer_n be_v easy_a that_o see_v the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o priest_n and_o levite_n under_o the_o law_n be_v raise_v all_o manner_n of_o way_n the_o maintenance_n of_o gospel-minister_n must_v be_v in_o some_o of_o these_o or_o there_o can_v be_v no_o maintenance_n at_o all_o for_o if_o minister_n do_v receive_v maintenance_n by_o the_o free-will-offering_n and_o voluntary_a contribution_n of_o the_o people_n so_o do_v the_o levite_n under_o the_o law_n if_o minister_n have_v house_n to_o dwell_v in_o provide_v for_o they_o the_o legal_a ministry_n have_v so_o too_o if_o minister_n have_v it_o by_o the_o edict_n of_o the_o supreme_a magistrate_n so_o have_v the_o levite_n too_o ezr._n 7.24_o if_o minister_n have_v their_o maintenance_n settle_v by_o law_n by_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o people_n as_o by_o act_n of_o parliament_n this_o way_n be_v use_v under_o the_o law_n likewise_o josh_n 21.1_o 3._o nehem._n 10.32_o if_o minister_n under_o the_o gospel_n receive_v tithe_n so_o do_v they_o also_o under_o the_o law_n only_o concern_v tithe_n its_o observable_a that_o the_o most_o of_o the_o other_o way_n be_v not_o use_v till_o first_o institute_v under_o the_o law_n yet_o tithe_n be_v pay_v long_o before_o as_o a_o due_a to_o god_n and_o to_o his_o use_n long_o before_o the_o aaronical_a priesthood_n or_o

i_o i_o will_v sure_o give_v the_o ten_o unto_o thou_o such_o way_n and_o part_n of_o their_o maintenance_n as_o be_v inseparable_a appendant_o to_o the_o type_n as_o their_o part_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n must_v needs_o be_v cease_v because_o there_o be_v no_o such_o sacrifice_n under_o the_o gospel_n but_o for_o the_o other_o way_n of_o maintenance_n which_o be_v not_o of_o such_o a_o nature_n they_o may_v be_v lawful_a still_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v to_o the_o contrary_n thus_o i_o have_v go_v through_o the_o temple-officer_n both_o their_o kind_n and_o their_o maintenance_n and_o now_o to_o wind_v up_o all_o i_o shall_v but_o brief_o recapitulate_v and_o gather_v up_o the_o head_n of_o thing_n and_o so_o conclude_v all_o these_o old_a legal_a type_n and_o shadow_n may_v be_v range_v into_o these_o seven_o class_n or_o general_a head_n 1_o personal_a type_n sundry_a individual_a person_n before_o the_o law_n such_o as_o adam_n enoch_n noah_n melchizedek_n abraham_n isaac_n jacob_n and_o joseph_n there_o be_v divers_a also_o under_o the_o law_n such_o as_o moses_n and_o joshua_n samson_n david_n and_o solomon_n elijah_n elisha_n and_o jonah_n zerubbabel_n and_o

their_o prophet_n priest_n and_o king_n all_o these_o be_v personal_a type_n and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o classis_fw-la 2._o occasional_a type_n such_o thing_n as_o jacob_n ladder_n moses_n his_o burn_a bush_n the_o pillar_n of_o cloud_n and_o fire_n manna_n and_o water_n out_o of_o the_o rock_n the_o brazen_a serpent_n the_o pool_n of_o bethesda_n and_o beside_o such_o typical_a thing_n there_o be_v typical_a action_n and_o dispensation_n of_o providence_n as_o their_o deliverance_n out_o of_o egypt_n their_o pass_v through_o the_o red_a sea_n and_o through_o the_o wilderness_n and_o

the_o second_o general_a head_n of_o type_n these_o transient_a and_o occasional_a type_n 3._o the_o three_o be_v that_o initiate_a seal_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n circumcision_n that_o famous_a ordinance_n which_o stand_v in_o force_n about_o two_o thousand_o year_n much_o long_o than_o the_o temple_n and_o temple-ordinance_n 4._o the_o four_o be_v the_o holy_a place_n as_o the_o tabernacle_n and_o temple_n with_o all_o the_o holy_a vessel_n and_o utensil_n belong_v to_o they_o the_o brazen_a altar_n of_o burnt-offering_a the_o melt_a sea_n and_o laver_n the_o two_o pillar_n of_o the_o temple_n the_o golden_a candlestick_n the_o table_n of_o shewbread_n the_o golden_a altar_n and_o censer_n of_o incense_n the_o ark_n with_o all_o the_o glorious_a appurtenance_n thereof_o this_o be_v the_o four_o classis_fw-la of_o they_o 5._o the_o five_o be_v the_o priesthood_n with_o all_o the_o legal_a ministry_n and_o all_o the_o concernment_n thereof_o the_o rule_n of_o these_o religious_a order_n their_o holy_a minister_a garment_n the_o ephod_n the_o breastplate_n the_o urim_n and_o thummim_n the_o mitre_n the_o holy_a crown_n their_o consecration_n to_o their_o office_n their_o administration_n in_o their_o office_n and_o to_o the_o priest_n belong_v as_o subordinate_a to_o they_o the_o levite_n who_o be_v porter_n singer_n treasurer_n judge_n and_o last_o the_o nethinim_n 6._o the_o legal_a sacrifice_n and_o purification_n their_o burnt-offering_n meat-offering_n peace-offering_n sin-offering_n trespass-offering_n the_o purification_n of_o unclean_a touch_v

and_o last_o be_v the_o jewish_a festival_n or_o holy_a time_n and_o season_n as_o the_o passover_n pentecost_n the_o feast_n of_o tabernacle_n the_o feast_n of_o trumpet_n the_o feast_n of_o

these_o be_v some_o of_o the_o general_a head_n of_o thing_n which_o you_o have_v hear_v speak_v to_o and_o the_o gospel-mystery_n include_v in_o they_o brief_o open_v and_o unfold_v this_o be_v the_o proper_a and_o genuine_a method_n and_o order_n of_o they_o which_o to_o have_v thus_o rehearse_v may_v a_o little_a help_n and_o refresh_v your_o memory_n there_o be_v three_o thing_n more_o which_o must_v needs_o be_v add_v and_o annex_v unto_o all_o that_o have_v be_v say_v each_o of_o which_o may_v have_v deserve_v a_o distinct_a discourse_n by_o itself_o but_o i_o shall_v but_o name_v they_o because_o i_o will_v conclude_v at_o this_o time_n 1._o that_o all_o this_o typical_a dispensation_n be_v expire_v and_o abolish_v by_o the_o exhibition_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o truth_n and_o substance_n and_o scope_n of_o all_o these_o shadow_n be_v vanish_v away_o by_o the_o rise_n of_o that_o sun_n of_o righteousness_n this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o great_a apostle_n do_v express_o assert_v col._n 2.14_o he_o have_v blot_v out_o the_o hand-writing_n of_o ordinance_n that_o be_v against_o we_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o we_o and_o take_v it_o out_o of_o the_o way_n nail_v it_o to_o his_o cross_n this_o the_o jew_n do_v not_o believe_v 2._o the_o gospel-dispensation_n do_v succeed_v and_o be_v substitute_v instead_o thereof_o so_o the_o same_o apostle_n heb._n 1.1_o 2._o god_n who_o at_o sundry_a time_n and_o in_o divers_a manner_n speak_v in_o time_n pass_v unto_o the_o father_n by_o the_o prophet_n have_v in_o these_o last_o day_n speak_v unto_o we_o by_o his_o son_n instead_o of_o moses_n the_o servant_n of_o the_o lord_n we_o have_v christ_n himself_o the_o son_n of_o god_n instead_o of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n we_o have_v the_o gospel_n and_o evangelist_n who_o give_v we_o a_o history_n instead_o of_o prophecy_n they_o tell_v we_o that_o christ_n be_v come_v whereas_o the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n only_o say_v he_o shall_v come_v the_o jew_n do_v not_o believe_v this_o neither_o as_o they_o adhere_v to_o the_o law_n so_o they_o reject_v the_o gospel_n 3._o this_o gospel-dispensation_n be_v far_o more_o glorious_a than_o that_o old_a legal_a dispensation_n for_o be_v not_o the_o substance_n better_o than_o shadow_n the_o law_n from_o mount_n zion_n be_v more_o glorious_a than_o the_o law_n from_o mount_n sinai_n the_o spirit_n be_v better_a than_o the_o letter_n 2_o cor._n 3.6_o to_o ver_fw-la 11._o the_o letter_n there_o be_v not_o the_o write_a word_n and_o the_o spirit_n the_o enthusiasm_n of_o a_o delude_a fancy_n as_o some_o have_v understand_v it_o but_o the_o letter_n be_v the_o law_n and_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o gospel_n as_o the_o whole_a context_n show_n and_o look_v as_o the_o jew_n do_v not_o believe_v the_o two_o former_a so_o the_o papist_n and_o other_o superstitious_a christian_n do_v not_o believe_v this_o three_o and_o therefore_o they_o seek_v to_o add_v a_o external_a legal_a pomp_n and_o splendour_n which_o be_v carnal_a to_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o the_o spiritual_a majesty_n and_o glory_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o gospel-ordinance_n which_o their_o carnal_a eye_n be_v not_o able_a to_o see_v and_o to_o discern_v remember_v these_o three_o thing_n and_o carry_v they_o along_o with_o you_o the_o abolition_n a_o expiration_n of_o the_o law_n with_o all_o the_o type_n thereof_o the_o succession_n and_o substitution_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o preeminence_n of_o glory_n in_o the_o gospel_n above_o the_o law_n and_o now_o bless_a be_v god_n who_o have_v carry_v i_o through_o this_o subject_a of_o the_o type_n and_o shadow_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n a_o subject_a in_o itself_o useful_a and_o edify_a be_v it_o handle_v according_a to_o its_o worth_n i_o must_v confess_v i_o have_v find_v some_o experience_n of_o assistance_n and_o help_n from_o god_n since_o first_o i_o enter_v upon_o it_o much_o beyond_o my_o own_o weakness_n and_o
