2. That the Levitical Ceremonies and Sacrifices should cease upon the Death of the Messiah,1 and the Jewish Nation be dissolved. Although the legal Service was established with great solemnity, yet there was always a sufficient indication that it should not be perpetual. Moses who delivered the Law told them that God would raise another Prophet whom they must hear. 2And David composed a Psalm to be sung in the Temple, containing the establishment of a Priest, not according to the order of Levi but Melchizedek, who should bring in a Worship Spiritual and Divine. And we see this accomplished, all the Ceremonies were buried in his grave & the Sacrifices for above sixteen hundred years are ceased. Besides the destruction of the ⟨p. 488⟩Holy City and Sanctuary, the Jews are scattered in all parts, and in their dreadful dispersion suffer the just punishment of their Infidelity.
