VER. 18, 19.
IN the Twelfth Verse of this Chapter the Apostle affirms, that the Priesthood being changed, there was of Necessity a change made of the Law also. Having proved the former, he now proceeds to confirm his Inference from it, by declaring that the Priest and Priesthood that were promised to be introduced, were in all things inconsistent with the Law. In that place he mentions only a [Greek or Hebrew], or change of the Law. But he intended not an Alteration to be made in it, so as that being changed and mended, it might be restored unto its former Use. But it was such a change of it, as was an [Greek or Hebrew], an Abrogation of it, as in these Verses he doth declare.
