2. The Peace-Offerings were to be eaten with Cakes of leavened Bread, and yet with Bread unleavened: The Bread brought with the Sacrifice of Confession, as you have it in Maim. Treatise of Offering, was thus prepared: He took twenty Tenths (or Bottles) of fine Flower, and made of them ten Bottles leavened, and ten unleavened; the ten that were leavened, he made of them ten Cakes; and the ten that were unleavened, he made of them thirty Cakes, equally of every sort, viz, ten Cakes baked in the Oven, ten Cakes hastily fried, &c. And the Priest took one of all four Cakes, one of every sort, &c. Leaven, as it figured Corruption of Nature, Hypocrisy, or Malice, as 'tis noted by Ainsworth, was usually forbidden in all Sacrifices; but yet Leaven in the Sacrifice of Thanksgiving or Confession was accepted, which might hold forth God's gracious acceptance of us in Christ, being sincere, (signified by the unleavened Cakes) notwithstanding our manifold Corruptions and Infirmities, figured by the leavened Cakes. Or, as that learned Author notes, to signify how careful we should be to prepare our selves, Leaven being used sometimes in a good sense, denoting Grace;1 and also to teach us to temper our Joys with Sorrow and Affliction• in this Life; as the Prophet's Heart (saith he) was leavened. Psal. 73.21.
