Matthew11:13
13 For all the prophets, and the law prophecied until John.
It is no wonder, that there was such an heat kindled in the Souls of People, upon Iohn the Baptists coming, for they understood that Christ typified in the Law, and only foretold by the Prophets, was now come. So as the Ceremonial Law from his time began to dye, and all the Prophecies of Christ in the Prophets, began then to have their Complement. Iohn shewed them with his Finger, him who before had been only darkly revealed under Types and Figures, and in the Prophecies of the Prophets: Men came to see that they had not hoped, or waited in vain for the Salvation of Israel. [Prophecied] in this Verse, signifies made dark Revelations of Christ, and the Kingdom of Heaven.
