In a treatise, wherein are clearly demonstrated the places where, and manner how the ten supposed lost Tribes of Israel do at this day subsist. With a description of the future glorious estate of the Twelve, at the incomparable union of Judah and Ephraim; which must shortly be in reference to its compleating the whole mysterie of mans redemption, and real establishing of the kingdom of Jesus Christ, after the Jews conversion. / Written by J.J.

the Jews in respect of their cruelty unto Christ and only in an affectionate way about pa. 73. That notwithstanding all those curses with which he had already out of the word of God threatned them yet saith he Tanquam talis est calamitosa desolatio in domo Judaica Dei nos Christiani expectamus eorum conversionem certam acceptionem For the present saith he there is great desolation made amongst Gods antient holy people so that most men do for their blind and ignorant but horrid offence committed against the Son of the everliving God despitefully handle them yet saith he we Christians do believe that they shall be converted and received again into the favor of God in Christ and therefore do we longingly expect and wait for it I might here shew the great difference between the Christ-like and heavenly affections of the Primitive Fathers and the cold world-like affections of the men of our dayes But that shall be brought in its proper place 3. Effrem Syrus whom Jerom doth so much extoll in his Catalogue of the Fathers for so merciful a man to all such as he did not see in as prosperous a condition as himself so that Jerom terms him in one place 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 a man full of Divine actions Effrem the Divine writing on the small continuance of the persecution in comparison of that everlasting crown of joy which all Gods Saints and servants should possess after this miserable and frail life did in one of his Epistles to the Christians in Phaenicia entreat them not like others of the world but according to their profession to use all possible means to relieve and succour the outcasts of Israel saying that notwithstanding their hardness of heart 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 they have the same hope as we have although for the present they possess not the same Christian faith for how can they believe in him of whom they have not heard with such opened ears and hearts as the Lord ere it be long will give unto them Ambrose saith Quid pet is O Judaee Deus tribuet tibi panem aeternam qui dat omnibus illum rogantibus quotidie dat semper dat O Jew saith he what is it thou wouldst beg of God do but ask him and he will give thee bread everlasting who giveth daily and always giveth Observe now when this Father had reckoned up those Nations which had the least hope in or knowledge of God then he bringeth in the Jews at the latter end of the barbarous Nations and they lived not neither do live without God yet he thought and that judiciously how that they were furthest off Christ because of the full calling of the Gentiles to be first accomplished and therefore saith Would the forsaken Jew but beg of God and the Lord would give unto him of that bread of life which whosoever eats of shall never hunger more Indeed this Father comes far short of Effrem in his charity towards Israel and writes as if so be the Jews had the least reason of all Nations to expect any favor from the hands of the merciful God Jerom saith in his book de Temp. Quod nec Judaei nec Christiani repentè benefaciunt nec convertuntur ideo Judaei nondum Christiani sunt in nomine vero in re ipsa erunt That is how neither Jew nor Christian onely by his profession are suddenly for the most made new creaturesi and therefore because the Jews as yet have not attained the names of Christians yet let no man doubt but that they will be converted and brought back into that true and good old way in the which Enoch Shem Noah Abraham Isaac Jacob Moses and Job with the rest of the Patriarchs walked even according to the mind of God who though they lived so long before Christ came in the flesh yet by Faith they saw his day and were glad even so although Israel will not see Christ in the flesh being he hath already offered up himself upon Cross one Sacrifice to serve for ever yet as sure as the Lord liveth who did once in their fathers remembrance cause the Sun to stand still over Gibeon and the Moon over Aialon which unto this day is a matter of great experience amongst the Jews I say so sure will the Lord perswade them nay he will constrain them to believe that he which for the present they call Ben-Ioseph was that true Emmanuel Ben-David who came and went up and down in the world doing good being meek and lowly riding on an Asse through the streets of their old City Ierusalem These things they do now deny but ere long they shall believe with joy unexpressible and cry Hosanna to the Son of David as if he now were riding before them bearing palms in their hands or rather grace in their hearts saying with the Samaritans We have not only heard by the report and sound of the Gentile Christians but now our own eyes have beheld the salvation of our God And as we may find at this day written in great letters at Rome one of the notable statutes of Lu. Aemilius how that Omnes Dii peregrini è civitate ejiciantur so at this great restauration they will throw away and detest not only out of their present habitations but also out of their hearts all strange and contrary opinions which for the present they do after various manners possess As in Persia they rely for the most part upon the belief and religion of the Bramin Merchants and so in the East-Indies but here in Europe they do give far more earnest heed unto their present book which they call the Gemara in which are written those secreta ac fines temporum spoken of in the book of Esdras whom they now have in special request above others of the Prophets A name and matter as they believe which doth surpass their old Talmud and yet they say at the presence of their King it shall vanish and decay expecting a third edition which will be delivered unto them by the hands of Elias Alluding as I suppose unto that third part which the Lord saith he will bring through the fire pure and burnisht without the least dross amongst them So that in our dayes to shew and testifie how that they are of those true Jews indeed and not of the sect spoken of in the Revelations as we read in the holy oracles viz. in Haggai that when such as had formerly seen the glory of the first Temple did now behold the glory of the second they wept and was it not because God had ecclipsed their old splendor seeing they would not hearken unto the word of his power they would none of his counsel but despised all his reproof by striving to put the evll day far from them I would that English-men had but such Jewish eyes to perceive and hearts to understand how far short we come of our former nick-named Puritanical glory notwithstanding all our talk of so
