Here is a circumstance used by Aaron more then is expressed to be enjoined by Moses: but yet not against any thing enjoined: but that which may rather be by consequence gathered. For he was to go to the congregation among whom the plague was begun. He was also to make an atonement: the atonement was not for the dead, but for the living. To show that it was for the living, he stands betwixt the living and the dead: leaving the dead behind him: turning his face to the living; holding the incense before him, that the living might behold the smoke thereof ascending to heaven for them. Herein he typified the true 1and great High-Priest the Lord Jesus Christ, our Mediator, who stands betwixt us and the destroying wrath of God.
