Chap. IX.
In the old Testament, that secular Sanctuarie had tvvo partes: the one signifying that
time, vvith the ceremonies therof for the emundation of the flesh: the other signifying
heauen, vvhich then vvas shut, vntil our High priest Christ entered
into it, and that vvith his ovvne bloud, shed for the emundation of our consciences.
Wherevpon he concludeth the excellencie of his tabernacle and host
aboue the old. 25 Noting also the difference, that he entered but once (so
effectual vvas that one blouddy offering of him self, for euer) vvheras the
Leuitical High priest entered euery yere once.
-- --
1 note noteThe former also in deede had iustificati&obar;s
note of seruice, and a secular sanctuarie.
2 For
the tabernacle vvas made, the first, vvherin
vvere, the candlestickes, and the table,
and the proposition of loaues, vvhich is
called Holy.
3 But after the second vele,
the tabernacle, vvhich is called Sancta Sanctorum:
4 hauing a golden censar, and the arke of the testam&ebar;t
couered about on euery part vvith gold, in the vvhich vvas
09Q1372 a golden potte hauing Manna, and the rod of Aaron that
had blossomed, & note the tables of the testament,
5 and ouer
it vvere note the09Q1373 Cherubins of glorie ouershadovving the propitiatorie.
of vvhich things it is not needeful to speake novv
particularly.
6 But these things being so ordered, in the first
tabernacle in deede the priests alvvaies entered, acc&obar;plishing
offices of the sacrifices.
7 But in the second, note once a yere
the high priest only: not vvithout bloud vvhich he offereth
for his ovvne and the peoples ignorance:
8 the holy Ghost
signifying this, that the vvay of the holies was note not yet manifested,
the former tabernacle as yet standing.
9 vvhich is
a note parable of the time present: according to vvhich are offered
giftes and hostes, vvhich can not concerning the conscience
make perfect note him that serueth,
10 onely in meates and
in drinkes, and diuerse baptismes, and iustices of the flesh
laid on them09Q1374 vntil the time of correction.
11 But note Christ assisting an high Priest of the good things
to come, by a more ample and more perfect tabernacle not
made vvith hand, that is, not of this creation:
12 neither by
the bloud of goates or of calues, but by his ovvne bloud entered
in once into the Holies,09Q1375 eternal redemption being
found. &cross4;
13 For note if the bloud of goates and of oxen & the
ashes of an heifer being sprinkled, sanctifieth the polluted
to the cleansing of the flesh:
14 hovv much more note hath the
bloud of Christ vvho by the holy Ghost offered him self
vnspotted vnto God, note cleansed our conscience from dead
vvorkes, to serue the liuing God?
15 And therfore he is the
mediatour of the nevv Testament: that death being a meane,
vnto the redemption09Q1376 of these preuarications vvhich vvere
vnder the former testament, they that are called may receiue
the promise of eternal inheritance. &cross4;
16 For note vvhere there
is a testament: the death of the testatour must of necessitie
-- --
come betvvene.
17 For a testament is confirmed in the
dead: othervvise it is yet of no value, vvhiles he that tested,
liueth.
18 Vvherevpon neither vvas the first certes dedicated
vvithout bloud.
19 For al the commaundement of the Lavv
being read of Moyses to al the people: he taking the bloud
of calues and goates vvith note vvater and scarlet vvool and
hyssope, sprinkled the very booke also it self and al the people,
20 saying, note09Q1377 This is the bloud of the Testament, vvhich
God hath commaunded vnto you.
21 The tabernacle also &
al the vessel of the ministerie he in like maner sprinkled with
bloud.
22 And al things almost according to the lavv are
cleansed with bloud: and vvithout sheading of bloud there
is not remission.
23 It is necessarie therfore that09Q1378 the examplers of the cœlestials
be cleansed vvith these: but the celestials them selues
vvith better hostes then these.
24 For Iesvs is not entred
into Holies made vvith hand, examplers of the true: but into
heauen it self, that he may appeare novv to the countenance
of God for vs.
25 Nor that he should09Q1379 offer him self often,
as the high priest entereth into the Holies, euery yere in the
bloud of others:
26 othervvise he ought to haue suffered
often from the beginning of the vvorld: but novv once in
the c&obar;summation of the vvorldes, to the destructi&obar; of sinne,
he hath appeared by his ovvne host.
27 And as it is appointed
to men to die once, and after this, the iudgement:
28 so also
Christ vvas offered once note note to exhaust the sinnes of many. the
second time he shal appeare vvithout sinne to them that expect
him, vnto saluation.
