Nehemiah10:34

Verſe 34. And we caſt lots — for the Wood-offering] Heb. Kurban or Korban as the Goſpel calleth it, becauſe by offerings they came near to God. This Wood offering we read not of till now: the Prophet Iſay telleth us, that if we ſhould ſacrifice unto God according to his excellent greatneſſe, Lebanon would not be ſufficient to burn, nor the beaſts thereof ſufficient for a burnt-offering, Chap. 40.16. There was much uſe of fuell about the Temple; and it was formerly provided out of the publike treaſury. But that now failing, they take another order as here; that God might not be unſerved, and the daily ſacrifice neglected, which they held and called The abomination of deſolation
