And I will fet a Sign among them, and I will fend thofe that escape of them unto the Nations, to Tarfhifh, Pul and Lud that draw the Bow, to Tubal and Javan, to the Ifles afar off, that have not heard my Fame, neither have feen my Glory; and they shall declare my Glory among the Gentiles. Ezek. iii. 12. Bleffed be the Glory Jehovah from his Place. Ibid. xxxix. 21. And I will fet my Glory among the Heathens. The Time of his coming moft ex

actly, Dan. ix. 24. Seventy Weeks are determined upon thy People, and upon thy holy City, to finish Tranfgreffion, to feal. up Sins, and to cover Iniquity; and to bring in the just one of Ages; and to feal up Vifion, and the Prophet, and to anoint the holy one of the Holies. Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the Commandment to restore and to build Jerufalem, unto the Meffiah the Prince feventy Weeks. And three-fcore and two Weeks the Street shall be restored and built, and the Wail, but in troublous Times. Mich. i. 15.

this Houfe with Glory.The Glory of this latter Houfe fhall be greater than of the former-and in this Place will I give Zach. ii. 5. For I, faith Jehovah will be the Glory in the Midft of her. v. 8. For thus faith the Effence exifting of Hofts, the later Glory, he hath fent me to the Nations which spoiled you. His facred Perfon exhibited more Glory than the Emblem of Light in or out of the Cloud, or the Form of a Man of Light; though St. Paul calls the Emblem the Cherubim of Glory, Christ was the real Glory; the Types of Lights and Perfections, which the High-Prieft wore upon his Breaft, were but Shadows of his; his Glory weighed more than the Light, which is but an Emblem of his Glory; his Merit and Sacrifice was that which gives real Weight, real Glory; the other Sacrifices were but Types of his, fo of every Emblem in, or about the Temple.

I have fhewed in Mofes-fine P. p. 8. from Pfal. Ixviii. 19. that the Man was taken into the Effence of the Aleim. And David (the Beloved) fays, Pfal. cxix. 122. Mix with thy Servant for Good, let not the Proud opprefs me. Ibid. cxix. 81. My Soul longeth for thy (Jelus) Saviour : For thy Word do I hope. v. 123. My Eyes

Help us, O Aleim of our Salvation, by by the Word, the Glory, thy Name: and deliver us, and cover overour Sins through thy Name. Ifai.lxi.10. Rejoicing Iwill rejoice in Jehovah, my Body [Frame] fhall exult in my Aleim: For he claatheth me with the Garments of Salvation, he will cover me with the Robe of Righteoufnefs: As a Bridegroom

he hall intercede for Glory, and as a Bride fhall be be adorned in her Jewels: For as the Earth-So the Lord Jehovah will caufe Righteoufnefs and Irradiation to fhine forth before all Nations. If we confider P, y, &c. not as real Names of a Perfon or Perfons, but as perfonal Attributes, they diftinguish the Perfons as effectually; for they fubfift not without Perfons, nor in any other Perfons but typically, as in Joshua, Cyrus, &c. and the Manner of speaking holds among Men. Befides thefe and many more fuch, and other Manners of expreffing it, not yet fufficiently explained, 'tis predicted exprefsly, that Chrift was to be compounded of two Perfons, Pfal. lxxxvii. 5. And of Sion it fhall be faid, 's a great Perfon and a great Perfon (fee M. fine P. Chap. xi.) was born there. And he shall

(fee Ifai. xlv. 4. and xliv. 5.) called the most high. Jehovah fhall declare in the written (Record) of the People, that he was born there (that is within the Family, the Tribe, the District that was registered there.) Selah. And [there fhall be) Songs as the Singings at Births (at Labours, at bringing forth of Sons) as the Chorus of the Angels] all my y [another Word for Songs; alternate, refponfive] Odes are on thee. To this Child Ifa. vii. 14. and ix. 6. gives the double Character of a mighty Man, and a mighty God Irradiator of Light or Glory. So Pfal. xlv. 1. To the Conqueror upon (or over) Sofannim, which, though it bears not the Name, I take to be an Emblem of a Scepter, fo perhaps of the Irradiation of Light, from its Usage in the Temple, from its Colour, from the Number of its Leaves, or Rays) to the Sons of Korah an Inftruction, a Song of the Beloved. My Heart is enditing [is full] of the Word, the good one; I speak of the things which I have done touching the King: My Tongue is the Pen of a ready Writer. 5 thou art infinitely beautiful beyond the Sons of Adam: Grace is diffufed in thy Confeffions; therefore the Aleim bless thee for ever.
