1. The presence of God, by the more visible and lasting tokens of his presence, which was chiefly afforded in the time of the Levitical Pedagogue; so the Altar, Temple, Ark, and Mercy-seat, were symbols of Gods presence among that people, by them God signified his presence▪ he recorded his name there by those visible tokens of his presence; and therefore the Ark was said to be Gods face: and when the Ark was lifted up, it was said, Let God arise▪ and let his Enemies be scattered. Hence they so much rejoiced when the Ark came into ⟨p. 289⟩the City of David, because it was the sign of Gods presence, and mourned when it was taken away captive. And God is said to deliver his glory into captivity; that is, the token of his glorious presence: and as long as this continued, God was looked upon as there present; and thither the people went to pray, and offer Sacrifice. And thus God more fixedly declared his durable relation to a place by these tokens, and while these continued in a place, he was looked upon to be there.
