Numbers 17:10

Paul hath recorded this circumstance in his epistle to the Hebrews. Hebrews 9:4. But certainly a great deal of gospel is veiled under it. It is JESUS and his perpetual presence, that takes away the greater as well as the less sins of his people. John saw JESUS many years after his ascension, and he then appeared as a lamb which had been slain: meaning, no doubt, that he exercised his priesthood still, and bore on his glorified body the marks of our redemption. Revelation 5:6.
