When this Temple is built Christ cometh into it, to fill the house with the cloud of his glory, and to walk in the midst of the seven Golden Candlesticks. The same thing is meant by his appearing, When he appeareth, saith our Translation: When he shall be revealed, 1saith the Chaldee: Others read, When he shall be seen, or in seeing of him. The original word I find used to express more remarkable, divine, and glorious sights, as Gen. 16.13. Have I also here looked after him that seeth me? Gen. 22.14. In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen. From this word had the Prophets the name of Seers, 1 S•m. 9.9. And from the same word came the name of Visions, 2 Chron. 26.5. Zechariah who had understanding in the visions of God.
