He himself is the first promise that runs along in all the Scripture: and 1all the promises of Christ are yea: for whatsoever was promised of Christ before he came, it was fulfilled when he came: for all types were fulfilled in him, and all Prophecies, and all promises they were all accomplished in him.

- 1Christ the first promise.
All types whether personal, or real.
For personal types, he was the second Adam, Adam was a type of him, 1he is the true Adam. He was the true Isaac, the ground of laughter. He is the true Joseph advanced now to the kingdom, to the right hand of 2God: he is the steward of his Church to feed his Church here, and bring her to Heaven with himself afterward. He is the true Joshua that brought Israel out of the wilderness to Canaan; he brings us from Moses, from the law to heaven: he is the true Joshua that brings us through Jordan, from death, and miseries in this world, to heaven. He is the true Solomon, the Prince of peace: so all personal types of Kings, and Priests, as Aaron was a type of him, &c. they were yea in him, they were fulfilled in him.
