There were three sorts of Functions in the Old Testament, into which they were instituted by Ointment, Kings, Priests, and Prophets; Kings, 1 Sam. 13.10, 11. so Priests, Exod. 29.7. so Prophets, 1 King. 19.16. now Christ being ordained to be King, Priest, and Prophet, therefore he is called the Anointed, [Greek or Hebrew] Joh. 12.15. Luke 1.32, 33. Heb. 6.20. Heb. 7.24. Acts 3.22, 23. all other Unctions were but types of him, therefore he is said to be anointed with the oil of gladness above his fellows, Psal. 45.7. he was not only gladded himself, but all the ends of the earth were made glad by him therefore he is called [Greek or Hebrew]; now because he was not a type, but the person typified, he was not anointed with material oil, but with the Spirit of God which is the true Unction, Acts 10.38. Luke 4.18. Dan. 9.24. hence called Messiah, in Hebrew, the same with [Greek or Hebrew] in Greek; from this Ointment of Christ, we are anointed by the same Unction, as Psal. 133. so that spirit which was poured on his head, descended to his lowest members, 2 Corinth. 1.21, 22. yea to the skirts of his garments, so then we are anointed by the Spirit.
