Excerpt from The Law of the Offerings in Leviticus I. VII: Considered as the Appointed Figure of the Various Aspects of the Offering of the Body of Jesus Christ He, who spake as never man spake, Opened His mouth in parables. With His example before us, I have often been surprised that the inspired parables of the Old Testament should have been so neglected; the more as we see from the writings of St Paul, not only how closely these emblems are connected with Christ, but also how aptly they illustrate, in simplest figures, the wondrous truths and profound mysteries of redemption.
