We imagine that our Saviour was a greater priest and mediator than Aaron, or any of God's former ministers. We are assured that Christ sent His Apostles, as His Father had sent Him; and that, therefore, they were His true successors; and since they did commission others to succeed them in their office by the imposition of hands, as Moses commissioned Joshua to succeed him, the clergy who have succeeded the Apostles, have as divine a call and commission to their work, as those who were called by our Saviour; and are as truly His successors as the Apostles themselves were.
