Wherefore there is also [Greek or Hebrew], a change of the Law; that is, an Abolition of it. For it is a change of the same Nature with the change of the Priesthood; 1which, as we have showed, was its Abolition and taking away. And how this came to pass the word [Greek or Hebrew] declares, there is made a change. It did indeed ⟨p. 180⟩2necessarily follow on the change of the Priesthood; yet not so, but that there was an Act of the Will and Authority of God on the Law it self. God made this change, and he alone could do it; that he would do so, and did so, the Apostle proves in this and the Verses following. So is the Law of Commandments contained in Ordinances taken out of the way, being nailed unto the Cross of Christ, where he left it completely accomplished.
