Yea further, This Land, it was a Typical Land of the Church, and a Typical Land of Heaven, for so the Apostle speaking of that place in the Psalms, 1That he swore in his wrath, 2that they should not enter in his Rest. The Apostle in Heb. 3. 7. seems to apply it unto the Rest of the Church of Heaven,3 and in 1 Chron. 16. 15. Be ye mindful always of his Covenant, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations, even of the Covenant which he made with Abraham, and of his Oath unto Isaac, and hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a Law, and to Israel for an everlasting Covenant; saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance. Mark; that he would give unto them the Land of Canaan: This must be remembered to a thousand generations, and it must be a Law to Israel afterwards. Certainly this notes that God aimed at more by the Land of Canaan than merely to possess them of so much ground.
