VERSE 5.

1. HIs calling to the office. 2. The exequution of his office. 1. In things belonging unto God, Verse 7, and 8. 2. In things pertaining unto us, Ver. 9, and 10.

His calling is iterated as the foundation of all. Which is first affirmed, then confirmed by two testimonyes: the one obscure; the other plaine: Aaron had his calling mediately by Moses, Exod. 28.1. Christ had his immediately by God, Ioh. 8.42. Aaron was the Sonne of a man: Christ is the Sonne of God.

Thou art my Sonne: tu singulariter. In calling him his Son, he calls him a Priest: for the first begotten was a Priest.

In the next words it is, aske of me. He appoints him to pray for the Church, which is the office of the Priest.
