The Altar of burnt-offerings did typify this: That Christ was to be the only Sacrifice; there should be no other sacrifice to pacify Gods wrath but only Jesus Christ, who was both the Sacrifice indeed, and the Altar its self, for his human Nature was offered to God upon the Merits, as it were upon the worthiness of his divine Nature: Heb. 9. 14. How much more shall the blood of Jesus Christ who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God &c. This Altar did signify the offering of Jesus Christ. As if God should say, Know that what endeavours you do or can use to satisfy my Justice, and my wrath it is to no purpose, there's nothing but only my Son and that offering that shall satisfy my wrath: and now for them to make more Altars, it was to deny that great point of Religion that there was only the Sacrifice of Christ to satisfy God.1
