How Abraham may be typically apprehended.

ABraham signifies The father of a multitude, from Ab, pater, a Father; Ram, excelsus, Mighty; and Hamon, multitudinis, Of a multitude. Not in regard of the Iewes only, but all those that in succeeding times shall be ingraffed into the Church, and partake of euerlasting life through the mediation of Christ Iesus the promised seed, Gal. 3. Ephes. 1. Acts 3. and is a Type and figure of God the Father; for as that Abraham was the father of many, yet had but only one son; so although God be the father of all nati∣ons, yet had but one only son, Iesus Christ, begotten of his owne essence from before the beginning of the world. And as Abraham so loued God, that for his sake he would not haue spared his only son; so God so loued Abraham and the World, that hee gaue his only begotten son to die for the saluation of their soules.
