3. Moses was a type of Christ in his Office; he was a Prophet, Deut. 34.10. and there arose not a Prophet since in Israel like unto Moses. He acquainted Israel with the mind of God, he gave them the two Tables of the Law. So Jesus Christ is a Prophet, Luke 24.19. he reveals to his people ⟨p. 336⟩the mysteries of salvation, He unseals the Book of Gods decree*, and makes known his Will, Rev. 5.5. He is counted worthy of more glory then Moses, Heb. 3.3.
