This sentence, which contains a most important truth, had existed in the Mosaic writings for more than 3,000 years, before the attention of any philosopher was drawn to the subject. That the blood actually possesses a living principle, and that the life of the whole body is derived from it, is a doctrine of revelation, and a doctrine which the experiments of the most accurate anatomists have served strongly to confirm. The proper circulation of this important fluid through the whole human system was first taught by Solomon in figurative language ("Or¹ everª¹ the silverª cordª be loosed,ª°²° or the goldenª bowlª be broken,ª° or the pitcherª be brokenª° at¹ the fountain,ª or the wheelª brokenª° at¹ the cistern.ª" {Ecc 12:6}), and discovered, as it is called, and demonstrated by Dr. Harvey in 1628; though some Italian philosophers had the same notion a little before. This accurate anatomist was the first who fully revived the Mosaic notion of the vitality of the blood; which was afterwards adopted by the justly celebrated Dr. John Hunter, professor of anatomy, and established by him, by a great variety of strong reasoning and accurate experiments.

And he shall sprinkleª° of¹ the bloodª upon¹ it with his fingerª sevenª times,ª and cleanseª° it, and hallowª° it from the uncleannessª¹ of the childrenª of Israel.ª" {Lev 16:14-19} + "Even asª the¹ Sonª of manª cameª° notª to be ministered unto,ª° butª to minister,ª° andª to giveª° his²¹ lifeª a ransomª forª many.ª" {Mtt 20:28} + "Forª thisª isª° myª bloodª of¹ the¹ newª testament,ª which² is shedª° forª manyª forª the remissionª of sins.ª" {Mtt 26:28} + "Andª he saidª° unto them,ª Thisª isª° myª bloodª of¹ the¹ newª testament,ª which² is shedª° forª many.ª" {Mrk 14:24} + "Whomª Godª hath set forthª° [to be] a propitiationª throughª faithª inª his²¹ blood,ª to² declareª¹ his²¹ righteousnessª forª the¹ remissionª of sinsª that are past,ª° throughª the¹ forbearanceª of God;ª" {Rom 3:25} + "Muchª moreª then,ª being²° nowª justifiedª° byª his²¹ blood,ª we shall be savedª° fromª wrathª throughª him.ª" {Rom 5:9} + "Inª whomª we haveª° redemptionª throughª hisª blood,ª the¹ forgivenessª of sins,ª accordingª to the¹ richesª of hisª grace;ª" {Eph 1:7} + "Inª whomª we haveª° redemptionª throughª hisª blood,ª [even] the¹ forgivenessª of sins:ª" {Col 1:14} + "And,ª having made peaceª° throughª the¹ bloodª of hisª cross,ª byª himª to reconcileª° all thingsª untoª himself;²¹ byª him,ª [I say], whetherª [they be] things¹ inª earth,ª orª things¹ inª heaven.ª" {Col 1:20} + "Andª almostª all thingsª are²° byª the¹ lawª purgedª° withª blood;ª andª withoutª shedding of bloodª isª° noª remission.ª" {Hbr 9:22} + "Whereforeª Jesusª also,ª thatª he might sanctifyª° the¹ peopleª withª his ownª blood,ª sufferedª° withoutª the¹ gate.ª" {Hbr 13:12} + "Electª accordingª to the foreknowledgeª of Godª the Father,ª throughª sanctificationª of the Spirit,ª untoª obedienceª andª sprinklingª of the bloodª of Jesusª Christ:ª Graceª unto you,ª andª peace,ª be multiplied.ª°" {1Pe 1:2} + "Butª ifª we walkª° inª the¹ light,ª asª heª isª° inª the¹ light,ª we haveª° fellowshipª one with another,ªª andª the¹ bloodª of Jesusª Christª hisª Sonª cleansethª° usª fromª allª sin.ª" {1Jn 1:7} + "Andª heª isª° the propitiationª forª ourª sins:ª andª notª forª oursª only,ª butª alsoª forª [the sins of] the¹ wholeª world.ª" {1Jn 2:2} + "Andª fromª Jesusª Christ,ª [who is] the¹ faithfulª witness,ª [and] the¹ first begottenª ofª the¹ dead,ª andª the¹ princeª of the¹ kingsª of the¹ earth.ª Unto him that lovedª° us,ª andª washedª° usª fromª ourª sinsª inª his own²¹ blood,ª" {Rev 1:5}
