Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.
Ver. 20. Saying, This is the blood, &c.] A tropical and sacramental expression, whereunto our Saviour seemeth to allude in those words of his, "This cup is the new testament in my blood," &c. The sacraments of the Old Testament had a resemblance unto the New; but that was for works of the law, this is for remission of sins.
