3. Christ was typified by Solomon. 1. In his Name [Greek or Hebrew], which signifies peaceable; so Christ is called the Prince of peace, Isa. 9.7. This the Angels proclaimed at his incarnation, Luke 2.14. Peace on earth; all his wars tend to peace; he gives that peace which passeth all understanding*. 2. Solomon typified Christ in his government: His was a most flourishing Kingdom, 2 Chr. 9.22. King Solomon, passed all the Kings of the earth in riches; so Christs Kingdom is very glorious, all his subjects are made Kings; he reigns in heaven and earth, and of his Kingdom is no end. 3. Solomon typified Christ in his Wisdom; he was the Oracle of his age, 1 King. 4.31. He was wiser than all ⟨p. 338⟩men*. So Christ received the unction from his Father; he had a spirit of wisdom and holiness poured upon him without measure, John 3.34 Isa. 11.2. Behold, a greater than Solomon is here. Thus Jesus Christ was prefigured by those persons who were most lovely.
