And this sign Pesah, beside that it was a seal of the promise to be delivered the same night, to stablish the faith, and commanded to be observed ever after yearly to keep the benefit in memory, it was also a very prophesy of the passion of christ, describing the very manner & facyō of his death, and the effect and virtue thereof also. In whose stead is the sacrament of the body and blood of Christ common as baptism in the room or stead of the circumcision.
