Luke1:70
"As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:"
"Of him have all the prophets borne witness" (Ac 10:43). "The
testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy" (Re 19:10). Bishop Brownrig
says: ``The whole volume of Scripture did prophesy of him. He was the sum and
scope of all their predictions. He was Abraham's promised seed, Abraham's
Isaac, Jacob's Shiloh, Moses' Great Prophet, Esaias' Immanuel, Ezekiel's
Shepherd, Daniel's Holy One, Zechariah's Branch, Malachi's Angel; all of them
predictions to foretell his coming. All their types and ceremonies pointed at
him. He was Abel's Sacrifice, Noah's Dove, Abraham's First Fruits, Aaron's Rod,
the Israelites' Rock, the Patriarchs' Manna, David's Tabernacle, Solomon's
Temple; all these prefigured his incarnation. They were the folds and swathing
of the this babe Jesus.''
