The Fifth Part. 1 No Tabernacle here's for him, Appears to every one Whose eyes are open, if they look They'll find that he is gone: 2 None, none but Jesus does remain, What can there be more clear? God calls to us too out of Heaven, Him only now to hear. 3 Besides, if Moses should come in, Their Cause he'd give away; He never gave that Law to them Who live i'th' Gospel day: 4 'Twas given unto Israel When they in Horeb were; Not to their Fathers, but to them, Doth eminent appear;1 5 To Jews and Jewish Proselytes, Or all within their Gate; But not to them without their Church Did that at all relate. ⟨p. 115⟩6 The truth, as 'tis in Jesus, we Ought only to receive; And such who do not, we may see Themselves they do deceive.
