Marriage is a sweet thing; they are set forth by that, by an inheritance, and adoption of children, and such like: So that all these things are taken to •e shadows of those things. And indeed they are but shadows, the reality is the heavenly kingdom of grace and glory: the heavenly riches, the heavenly inheritance, the ⟨p. 16⟩heavenly sonship: when all these things vanish, and come to nothing: then comes in the true Kingdom, Sonship, and Inheritance.
