1. There may be no repugnancy, no contrariety therein. For David being an especial type of Christ, that may in history and type be spoken of David, which in mystery and truth is understood of Christ. The like was noted concerning S•, and Christ, Chap. 1. v. 5. §. 63. 2. That which David uttered in the foresaid Text, is questionless uttered by way of prophecy concerning Christ: as appeareth by these reasons. 1. In Davids time, God required sacrifice, and burnt-offerings, and took delight therein; for God answered David from heaven, by fire upon the altar of burnt-offering, 1 Chro. 21. 26. And David himself adviseth Saul to offer a burnt-offering that God might accept it, 1 Sam. 26. 19. 2. David was not able so to do the will of God, as by doing it to make all sacrifices void. Therefore this must be taken as a prophecy of Christ. 3. In the verse before (namely, Psal. 40. 5.) such an admiration of Gods goodness ⟨p. 432⟩is premised, as cannot fitly be applied to any other evidence, then of his goodness in giving Christ: in reference to whom eye hath not seen, n• ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of men, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him, 1 Cor. 2. 9. 4. These words used by the Apostle, when he cometh into the world, he saith, are meant of Christ, which argue that that which followeth, was an express prophecy of Christ.
