CHAP. V. The Vindication of Isa. 53.6.
Isa. 53.6. All we like sheep have gone astray, we have turned every one to his own way, and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Dialogu. The Lord laid not the sin of the Elect upon Christ by imputation; The true manner how the Lord laid all our iniquities upon Christ, was the very same manner as the Lord laid the sins of Israel upon the Priest and sacrifice, and no other.
Dialogu. THe Lord laid not the sin of the Elect upon Christ by imputation; The true manner how the Lord laid all our iniquities upon Christ, was the very same manner as the Lord laid the sinnes of Israel upon the Priest and sacrifice, and no other.
Answ. If he laid them no otherwise on the Antitype then upon the type, then sin was laid typically only; and not in truth upon Christ, consequently the type and the antitype are confounded; and those types are so many untruths, yea, we are yet in our sins. But whatsoever your words are, we presume your meaning is: The types instanced in, did not typically hold forth any imputation of sin unto Christ the antitype.
