But the Lord was not yet satisfied with this; but causes His Grace to Advance higher, in Moses time: And unto Moses He speaks expressly;1 A Prophet will I raise up like unto thee; & I'll put My Name in him: He shall be called, God, & Jehovah as I am. Then the Lord proclaimed before Moses, himself to be, the Lord, gracious, merciful, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin, reserving mercy for thousands. Then the Lord gave the Law: and least they should think, that God intended it as a Covenant of works; He ⟨p. 75⟩did at the same time give the Ceremonial Law; that thereby they might read the satisfaction of Jesus Christ for any sin they should commit against the Moral Law. Here was a higher Advance.
