Because these have more respect unto God than other offerings have (as hath been manifested to you at other times, Answ. with the differences between burnt offerings and other offerings) as if the holy Ghost should say, I require mercy and not sacrifice, and the inward worship of God, faith and knowledge rather than any natural worship. The Notes from hence are these.

The duties of the first and second Table are to be joined together. Obs. 1 ⟨p. 620⟩Mercy, and sacrifice, knowledge of God, and burnt offerings when in their place are acceptable, therefore let us take heed of separating that which God hath joined.
The duties of the first and second Table are to be joyned together. Obs. 1 ⟨p. 620⟩Mercy, and sacrifice, knowledg of God, and burnt offerings when in their place are acceptable, therefore let us take heed of separating that which God hath joyned.
Obs. 2 The knowledge of God is a most excellent thing. This is that which sanctifies Gods Name, and manifests him to be very glorious in the world; Paul accounted all things but loss and dung in comparison of the excellency of this knowledge of Christ.
