After this God was pleased to give them one more very remarkable warning by the Apostle Paul, in his epistle to the Hebrews, which is an epistle written to that nation of the Jews, as is suppos•••, about four years before their destruction; wherein the plainest […] clearest arguments are set before them from their own law, and from their prophets, for whom they professed such a regard, to ⟨p. 199⟩prove that Christ Jesus must be the Son of God, and that all their law pointed to him and typified him, and that their Jewish dispensation must needs have now ceased. For though the epistle was more immediately directed to the Christian Hebrews, yet the matter of the epistle plainly shows that the apostle intended it for the use and conviction of the unbelieving Jews. In this epistle he mentions particularly the approaching destruction, as chap. •.25. "So much the more; as ye see the day approaching;" and in vers. 27▪ he speaks of the approaching judgement and fiery indignation which should devout the adversaries.
