Look upon the Word as a spiritual 1Glass to dress your selves by: It is a Looking-glass for the blind, Psa. 19. 8. *In other glasses you may see your faces; in this glass you may see your hearts, Psal. 119. 104. Through thy Precepts I get understanding. This Looking-glass of the Word clearly represents Christ: •t sets him forth in his person, nature, offices, as most precious and eligible, Cant. 5. 16. He is altogether lovely; he is a 3wonder of beauty, a Paradise of delight. Christ who was veiled over in types, is clearly revealed in the Glass of the Scriptures.
