in his Name, unto this Day. Ibid. xviii. 5, 7. To ftand to minifter in the Name of Jehovah. Ibid. xxi. 5. For them Jehovah thy Alcim hath chofen to minifter unto him, and to blefs in the Name of Jehovah. 1 Chron. xxiii. 13. And Aaron was feparated, that he should fanctify the most holy things, he and his Sons for ever, to burn Incenfe before Jehovah, to minifter unto him, and to blefs in his Name for ever. This opens a Scene, which opens both the Old and New Teftament. The Prieft did not minister, or offer Sacrifices or Gifts, or burn Incense to Jehovah, or to Aleim but as a Substitute, a Proxy, in the Name of a Person who was Jehovah, was of the Aleim. Hence there must be more than one Perfon in Jehovah, elfe he could not offer to Jehovah in the Name of Jehovah, nor could that Perfon be Interceffor to himself. Though every Gift was offered to the Trinity, it may be. truly faid, the Prieft offered what was an Acknowledgement to that Perfon, to him. Indeed one might have fuppofed that he might have bleffed, or done fome other Acts to the People in the Name of the three Perfons. But 'tis plain he did all he did in one Name. Hence I think it follows, that whatever was done in the Name of Jebo

vah, was done under this Perfon, so to the Name of Jehovah. What Person this is, the Scriptures have determined and afcertained by joining it to be the Irradiator, as Gen. xxi. 33. Exod. xxxiv. 14. Ifa. vii. 14. and many other Ways. This Perfon is referred to Pfal. cxviii. 26. "He is bleffed who comes in the Name Jehovah. Jer. xvi. 21. They shall know that my Name is Jehovah." Indeed in the Plural Jehovah is faid really to dwell or exist in the Names, in the facred Trinity, so in each Perfon. So under the Name of the Lord, the Name of Chrift in the New Teftament; except where the three are named together, as in Baptifm, or, &c. He was the Perfon in Jehovah, in the Aleim, of Name, of Glory, of Holiness, &c. So Ifai. Ixiii. 16. Thou Jehovah art our Father, our Redeemer; the Eternal thy Name. If this Text, and xli. 14. xliii. 14. xlviii. 17. xlix. 7. Thus faith Jehovah, the Redeemer of Ifrael, his holy one. And liv. 5. For thy Lordsy thy Makers, Jehovah of Hofts: His Name and thy Redeemer the holy one of Ifrael shall be called the Aleim of all the Earth, be truly conftrued, they fhew, what is yet more to the Purpose; by the Law, he who was next of Kin, a Brother, or, &c. he who had

the firft Right; fo, here, he of the eldest Line had the Right, the Birth-right, to take Vengeance for Blood, to redeem Perfons and Inheritance; who he was to redeem us from is mentioned, Hof. xiii. 14. Out of the Hand of the Grave will I redeem them: from Death will I redeem them. I will be those who shall bring thee forth to Light, Ŏ Death; I will be thy Deftruction O Grave! Where Mich. iv. 10. There fhall Jehovah redeem thee from the Hand of thine Enemies.

Who they were which were emblematically exhibited, and before whofe Faces the Priest, in the Name of Jehovah, offered the Incense, and fprinkled the Blood, is ftrongly exprefs'd, 2 Sam. vi. 2. "The Ark of the Aleim where is invoked the Name, the Name of Jehovah of Hofts who dwelleth in the Cherubim upon it. 1 Sam. iv. 4. The Ark of the Purifier Jehovah of Hofts, who dwelleth in the Image of the Great Ones. 1 Chron. xiii. 6. The Ark of the Aleim Jehovah, who dwelleth in the Image of the Great Ones, where the Name is invoked (or who is invoked there) Pfalm xcxix. 1. Jehovah reigneth, let the People tremble; He dwelleth in the Cherubim, let the Earth [nutet] be moved, Marg. ftagger; (nod or VOL. VI.

turn

turn afide.) 2 Kings xix. 15. And Hezekiah prayed before Jehovah, and faid, Jehovah the Aleim of Ifrael, who inhabit the Cherubim (Image of the Great Ones) thou art the Aleim alone to all the Kingdoms of the Earth; thou madeft the Names and the Earth. Pf. lxxx. ii. Thou that inhabites the Cherubim, irradiate. Ezek. x. 20. This is the Creature which I faw under [a Subftitue of] the Aleim of Ifrael by the River Chebar, and I knew that they were the Image of the Great Ones. And 'tis faid Exod. xxv. 22. xxix. 42, 43. xxx. 6. Numb. vii. 89. that Jehovah would give Directions to Mofes from above the Mercy-Seat between the Cherubim. And, as 'tis faid, 2 Sam, xxii. 7, 11. Pfal. xviii. 11. I call'd upon Jehovah, and cried to my Aleimand he rode upon one Like-Rub a great one, and did fly, and was feen upon the wings of the Spirit. From whence 'tis plain, that the three Agents, the Emblems, the Names of which the three Beafts were also Reprefentatives, are in another View faid to be ficut Rubbim (magnates) ficut Aleim. These are the three Agents which form'd the World, which the Scriptures often fpeak of, and one of them is called the Word, another

the

the Spirit of Jehovah; which the Apoftate Jews have ignorantly taken to be Cherubim, animated Angels, and call'd them the Word, &c. As thofe three Agents are emblematically called, for that Reason, as I have faid above, they will never fuffer the Name Jehovah to be pronounced. Nay, 'tis plain in the Comparison, that one of thefe Rubbim was the Meffiah, Ezek. xxviii. 14. Thou art an Image of the Great One, anointed, a Protector.

The Cherubim and the Coverer placed in the Sanctum Sanctorum, the Appearance of the Glory, and the Actions perform'd there, emblematically exhibited by Figures, in the Names of the Rubbim, and by the Priest and the Glory in the Name of Jehovah, fhewed the manner of making, performing, and obferving the Covenant of the Rubbim, the Alcim, of the three Persons of one Effence, and Man to be taken in. And to the Jews were emblematical Pledges, and the Action of the Prieft, the Sacrament of the Performance of it. If the Jews would confider the Scriptures, and rectify their mistaken Traditions and foolish Notions, by which they have not only blinded themselves, but many that I know who have been dabling in their Writings; that the Cherubim which L2

were
