Here he clearly expounds that which was said before; namely,1 that all those which shall escape and survive the rest, shall be (notwithstanding their small number) Priests unto God, and shall bring sacrifices unto him from all parts. Now he alludes to the ancient ceremony of the Law, though he therewithal shows the difference which should be between these oblations, and the sacrifices ordained by the Law: for here he institutes new sacrifices, and a new priesthood. And a• he affirmed that all nations should be gathered, vers. 18. so now he shows, that the Priests by him established, shall not travail in vain, because the Lord will add a gracious issue unto their labours.
