As when the children of Israel were brought out of Egypt, not only a civil, but a spiritual life was conferred upon them, according to that Scripture, Ezek. 16.6. When I passed by thee, and saw thee polluted in thy own bloods, I said unto thee in thy bloods, live; yea I said unto thee in thy bloods, live, h. e. when I saw thee under bloody bondage by reason of Egyptian Task-masters, when there was a bloody proclamation gone forth out of Pharaohs Court, that all thy Male children should be destroyed, then I looked upon thee, and caused a political life to enter into thee, and when thou wer• in a filthy bloody condition by reason of sin, corrupt nature and Idolatry which thou layest in whilst in Egypt, I bestowed the grace of my Covenant upon thee, &c. So it is in the like sort true, that when all Israel shall be saved, not only a life of liberty, but a life of grace shall enter into them.

Yea 3ly. There shall be plentiful effusions of the spirit of God upon the Tribes of Israel, when the day cometh that all Israel shall be saved.
