to_o the_o design_n of_o the_o gospel_n however_o i_o can_v but_o spend_v some_o consideration_n on_o the_o sad_a division_n and_o quarrel_n that_o be_v among_o those_o who_o call_v themselves_o christian_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o religion_n i_o wonder_v not_o to_o see_v mahometan_n and_o jew_n scandalize_v at_o these_o division_n the_o jew_n especial_o when_o they_o read_v such_o lofty_a

they_o though_o these_o prophecy_n have_v be_v in_o a_o great_a measure_n fulfil_v not_o only_o in_o the_o apostle_n time_n when_o the_o jew_n and_o gentile_n who_o be_v mortal_a enemy_n before_o unite_a into_o one_o church_n under_o their_o common_a head_n christ_n jesus_n but_o afterward_o when_o the_o empire_n become_v christian_n and_o the_o heathen_a power_n who_o have_v most_o violent_o persecute_v the_o christian_n submit_v to_o the_o gospel_n and_o embrace_v those_o who_o they_o have_v burn_v before_o and_o though_o these_o prophecy_n may_v moreover_o be_v say_v to_o be_v exact_o fulfil_v partly_o with_o respect_n to_o the_o design_n and_o tendency_n of_o the_o christian_a religion_n the_o design_n and_o intent_n of_o christ_n law_n be_v to_o make_v man_n peaceable_a and_o partly_o with_o respect_n to_o the_o signal_n change_n that_o be_v actual_o wrought_v upon_o those_o who_o be_v true_o not_o only_o in_o profession_n and_o outward_o but_o inward_o too_o convert_v to_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n for_o upon_o this_o conversion_n their_o former_a hatred_n and_o enmity_n to_o other_o be_v lay_v aside_o and_o they_o be_v all_o for_o peace_n and_o concord_n though_o i_o say_v these_o prophecy_n be_v actual_o accomplish_v in_o despite_n of_o all_o the_o sect_n that_o profess_v christ_n religion_n yet_o the_o jew_n a_o dull_a hard_a inconsiderate_a sort_n of_o people_n and_o who_o be_v guide_v much_o by_o their_o sense_n see_v the_o everlasting_a quarrel_n that_o be_v among_o christian_n and_o how_o one_o party_n persecute_v and_o abuse_v the_o other_o and_o upon_o what_o slight_a occasion_n they_o quarrel_v and_o fall_v out_o and_o break_v peace_n and_o communion_n one_o with_o another_o i_o wonder_v not_o to_o see_v they_o offend_v at_o these_o
