§. 32. Of many Priests under the Law.
And every Priest standeth daily ministring, and offering oftentimes the same sacri∣fices, which can never take away sins.
THe Apostle proceedeth in setting out the excellency of Christs sacrifice, and here produceth another argument, by that rest which he took after he had of∣fered his one only sacrifice. This argument is plainly set down in the 12. verse, but amplified in this verse by the contrary course of the Priests under the law, who stand daily ministring and offering oftentimes.
This amplification manifesteth a difference betwixt the typicall Priests, and the true Priest, as well as betwixt the legal sacrifices and Christs sacrifice.
In this verse is shewed the insufficiency of those things, which the Priest did under the law.
Of a a 1.1 Priest in general. see Chap. 2. v. 17. §. 172. and Chap. 5. v. 1. §. 2, &c.
