And farther on in the same context of Scripture He says, Therefore wait thou for Me, saith the Lord, until the day of My Resurrection at the Testimony Zeph. iii. 8:  until the day that I rise up to the prey.  For דעלְ, to the prey, the LXX. seem to have read דע“לְְ, to the testimony.  About ten years before these Lectures were delivered, Eusebius (Life of Constantine, III. c. xxviii.), speaking of the discovery of the Holy Sepulchre, a.d. 326, calls it “a testimony to the Resurrection of the Saviour clearer than any voice could give.”.  Thou seest that the Prophet foresaw the place also of the Resurrection, which was to be surnamed “the Testimony.”  For what is the reason that this spot of Golgotha and of the Resurrection is not called, like the rest of the Churches, a Church, but a Testimony?  Why, perhaps, it was because of the Prophet, who had said, until the day of My Resurrection at the Testimony.
