duced out of the Pſalm only with a ſpecification in a Parentheſis ; which are offered by the Law, viz. ſuch Sacrifices againſt which the Apoſtle argueth, which could not purge away Sin, nor procure Righteouſneſs, nor make no more Conſcience of Sins. He obſerves from the Pſaim, that the Will of God was plainly fgnified by Þ1s Spirit to David under the Law, about the Nature, State, and De- gn of his Inſtitution of Sacritices, that they were Typical of, and leading to a hetter Sacrifice than themſelves; and that for their own ſake only, they were no way acceptable to God, and fo rejected by him.

This being thus proved, he concludes trom it, wr. 10. :
