XVI. Of the Chains that were upon these Pillars that stood before the Temple.
AS there were Nets to catch, and Pomegranates to bait, so there were Chains belonging to these Chapters on these Pillars. And he made Chains, as in the Oracle, and put them upon the head of the Chapters, 2 Chr. 3.16.
AS there were Nets to catch, and Pomgranates to bait, so there were Chains belonging to these Chapiters on these Pillars. And he made Chains, as in the Oracle, and put them upon the head of the Chapiters, 2 Chr. 3.16.
But what were these Chains a type of? I answer, They were (perhaps) a type of those bonds which attend the Gospel, by which Souls taken, are tied fast to the horns of the Altar. Gospel-grace, and Gospel Obligations, are ties and binding things: They can hold those that are entangled by the Word. Love is strong as death, bands of love and the cords of a Man, and Chains take hold on them that are taken by the Gospel, Hos. 11. Song 8.6.
