Are not the seven Churches in Asia called by the Name of Candlesticks? And why Candlesticks, if they were not to hold the Candles? And Candles must have Snuffers therewith to trim the lights. And Christ who is our true Aaron, in those rebukes which he gave those Churches, alluding to these SNUFFERS did it, that their lights might shine the brighter, Revel. 2, & 3. Chapters.

Wherefore as he used them, he did it still with caution to their light, that it might not be impaired. For as he still thus trimmed these Lamps, he yet encouraged what he saw would shine, if helped. He only nipped the snuff away.

Thus therefore he came to them with these Snuffers in his hand, and trimmed their Lamps and Candlesticks, Revel. 2, 4. ver. 20. chap. 3, 2. ver. 15.
