It seems very 'probable that he origin or first hint
of the ancient custom of dressiii our churches and
houses at Christmas with evergmens; •was owing to,
or taken from, certain expressio in the following
i
prophecies of the coming of our S. ioue I—.
" Behold the days come, saith the I.olto,thit twill raise unto
DAVID a righteous Breaths" " Behold I will bring forth try
servant, the Branch s" a &hold the man; whose name is the
Branch, and he shall. grow up out of his place;" " At that tlite
will I cause the branch of righteousness to grow up unto DAVID ;" '
" 1 will take off the highest branch old, high cedar, and win set
.it; 1 Will crop off from the top of his young koigs, a tinder one,
and will pleat it on a high mountain and smarm In the mono-
tain of tue height of Israel will I plant It; and it shall brirg forth
boughs,"and bear fruit, and it shall be a goodly cedar." "In that
day shall the branch of the Loan be beautiful and glorious." " He
shall grow up before him as a torch, plant, and as a root out of a
dry pound." "There shall come forth a rod oat of the stela of
JESSE and a brosseh dial! grow out of his roots, which shall stand for
an ensign fur the people,' etc. .
tor it must be allowed that those passages and ex-
pressions in which our SAVIOUR is represented under
1 the type of a branch, a righteous branch, a bough, the
brands of ri.ghttournal who will reign forever, Ste. in
the above mentioned clear and eminent prophecies
of his first appearance in the flesh, upon earth, are,
in a most lively manner, brought to out memories,
and strongly alluded to by 'those branches and bough:
' of ever greens, &c. with which our churches and houses
are adorned ; whose gay appearance and perpetual
verdure in that dead season of the year, when all
nature looks comfortless, dark, and dreary; and when
the rest of the vegetable world have lost their ho.
nours, does agreeably charm the unweat led beholder!,
and make a very suitable appendage to the universal
joy which always attends the annual commemora:
of that holy festival.
