To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His death was the condition of the covenant. It was stipulated, as the condition of his having a seed to serve him, that he should make his soul an offering for sin ; that he should bear their iniquities ; that he should pour out his soul unto death. In reference to this, the blood of the ancient sacrifices was called the blood of the covenant, while, of his own, the Saviour testifies, this cup is the new testament in my blood. The blood of Christ was not shed by accident, it was not poured out... at random or on a venture. No : he laid down his life by covenant. The terms of the cov- enant must, therefore, define the designed extent of the objects of his death. If all mankind are included in the covenant, — if the Surety of the covenant repre- sented, in this eternal transaction, the whole human . race, then the atonement of Christ must have been in- definite. But, if the children of the covenant, as is admitted, are only a given specified number of the hu- man family, then must the atonement of the Mediator be restricted tc them.
