These are the words of the Apostle. Many things contained in few words, and the English thereof is this: We have an altar, we have an altar (saith the Apostle) an altar, and a sacrifice upon this altar. And they that serveth the Tabernacle, may not eat of this altar, may not eat of the Sacrifice that is offered upon this altar. For the Apostle here (Per metonymiam) doth put the altar for that that is sacrificed upon the altar. The blood of those beasts that were slain for the sacrifice, was brought into the holy secret high place of the temple where the Ark was, between the high altar (as ye will say) and the veil by the bishop, & there offered up for the sin of the people. The bodies of the beasts that were burned without the pavilions or tents for the which, Propter quod, for which what? for the fulfilling of which mystery. Also to verify and fulfil the figure, and that the thing figured, might be correspondent to the figure. Jesus suffered without the gate, to sanctify the people by his blood. Let us go out therefore and suffer with Christ bearing his opprobries and rebukes. These be the words of the Apostle now taken.
