Hebrews12:27

27 And this word, Yet once more signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.

The Interpretation of the former matter in this Verse, is introduced by reassuming, And this yet once more, as if he said, I told you that God promised, yet once more, &c. what he meaneth by it I now declare to you; this shaking of God, intends not a small alteration, but a total removal and abolition of the Israelitish Heaven and Earth, forementioned, an alteration of their Church. Religion, and Administration, and a total abrogating of them, because they are Hand-work, chap. 9.24. Such as were at God's direction made by Men, as Tabernacle, Altar, and that Typical Service, not reaching the Spiritual design of God, and but Types of far better to succeed them; and which setled, did make the others to be finished, past, and never to return again.

These better things are the Administration of Christ's Kingdom unshakeable, his Church-state, which is Heavenly, setled by his own Evangelical Laws and Ordinances, which he hath so fixed by Promise, as never to be removed till the whole Church of Christ be compleated with him in Heaven, Haggai 2.7. Matth. 17.5. and 28.18, 19, 20.

Marginal references: Psal. 102.26. Matth. 24.35. 2 Pet. 3.10. Rev. 21.1.; Or, may [illegible: 1 letter]e shaken.
