The institution of the high priesthood typified Jesus, the Greek Priest, called and prepared of God, who hath an unchangeable priesthood, and is able to 1875 de le intermost all that come unto God by him.

All the rites and ceremonies of the waic law are at once dignised and expressive. They point out the holiness of their Author, the e of man, the necessity of an atonement, and the state of moral excellence to which the grace acy of the Creator have destined to raise the human soul. They include, as well as point out, the of the Son of God; from which they receive their consummation and perfection. The sacrifices tions were a gniscant of the atonement of Christ; the requisite qualities of these sacrifices were Sematical of his immaculate character; and the prescribed mode in the form of these offerings, and the rises ordained, were allusive institutions, calculated to enlighten the apprehensions of the Jews, prepare them for the reception of the Gospel.

As the 7, daleth is very like the, resh, they might be easily mistaken for each other; and hence this person being called both Deuel, and Reuel, may be easily accounted for. The Septuagint and Syriac have Reuel, in this chapter; and in ch.2.14, the Samaritan, Vulgate, and Arabic have Deuel, instead of Renel, with which reading a vast number of MSS. concur, and which is also supported by ch.7.42.10.20. We may therefore sately conclude, that Deuel, and not Reuel, was the original reading. 15 Ahira. ch.2.29.-7.78.-10.27.
