* that he.
From the destruction of Jerusalem to the present time, a
period of nearly eighteen hundred years, the Jews have had
neither a king nor any form of government whatever; nor has
the office of high priest, or priest of any kind offering
sacrifice, been exercised among them during the same period.
Hence this must be understood of the spiritual David, Jesus
Christ, both the king and High Priest of his church, "the
Israel of God," (Ga 6:16,) in whom the covenant of royalty
with David and his seed, and that of priesthood with Aaron and
his seed, have received their full accomplishment; and all the
sacrifices of that dispensation were superseded by his "one
oblation of himself," the efficacy of which remains for ever.
