[9] Archbishop Whately, speaking of the word ἱερευς and its meaning,

says: "This is an office assigned to none under the Gospel scheme,

except the ONE great High-Priest, of whom the Jewish priests were

types." (Elements of Logic. Appendix: Note on the word "Priest.") Of the

"_Gospel scheme_" this is quite true; of the _Church-of-England scheme_

it is not. There lies before me Duport's Greek version of the

Prayer-Book and Offices of the Anglican Church: and turning to the

Communion Service, I find the officiating clergyman called ἱερευς

throughout. The _absence_ of this word from the records of the primitive

Gospel, and its _presence_ in the Prayer-Book, is perfectly expressive

of the difference in the spirit of the two systems;--the difference

between the Church _with_, and the "Christianity _without_ Priest."

[10] See Rom. vi. 2-4: "How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any

longer therein? Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into

Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with

him by baptism into death; that, like as Christ was raised up from the

dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness

of life." Mr. Locke observes of "St. Paul's argument," that it "is to

show in what state of life we ought to be raised out of baptism, in

similitude and conformity to that state of life Christ was raised into

from the grave." See also Col. ii. 12: "Ye are ... buried with him in

baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the

operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead." The force of the

image clearly depends on the sinking and rising in the water.
