again_o if_o the_o want_n of_o a_o general_a conversion_n do_v withhold_v the_o come_n of_o the_o messiah_n then_o consider_v that_o the_o punishment_n which_o lie_v upon_o that_o nation_n be_v

the_o fault_n peculiar_a to_o that_o nation_n and_o not_o common_a to_o they_o with_o all_o other_o nation_n of_o the_o world_n the_o first_o temple_n say_v they_o be_v destroy_v for_o idolatry_n for_o superfluity_n and_o for_o shed_v of_o guiltless_a blood_n and_o special_o the_o blood_n of_o zacharie_n and_o esay_n yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o want_v not_o prophet_n in_o the_o time_n of_o

that_o be_v to_o say_v for_o a_o fault_n that_o be_v commit_v a_o two_o or_o three_o thousand_o year_n ago_o when_o as_o notwithstanding_o the_o people_n be_v then_o present_o punish_v for_o it_o

it_o be_v to_o the_o captive_n of_o babylon_n if_o they_o know_v not_o the_o fault_n then_o can_v they_o not_o acknowledge_v it_o and_o if_o they_o can_v acknowledge_v it_o in_o vain_a be_v all_o

we_o can_v now_o rabbi_n joseph_n light_n the_o castilian_a have_v learn_v it_o out_o of_o the_o ancient_a writer_n say_v thus_o the_o light_n of_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o messiah_n be_v the_o live_a god_n and_o the_o live_a god_n be_v the_o fountain_n of_o the_o live_a water_n and_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o messiah_n be_v the_o river_n or_o stream_n of_o lyse_v and_o in_o another_o place_n none_o but_o the_o messiah_n say_v he_o know_v god_n full_o because_o he_o be_v the_o light_n of_o god_n and_o the_o light_n of_o the_o gentile_n and_o therefore_o he_o know_v god_n and_o god_n be_v know_v by_o he_o now_o when_o as_o they_o say_v that_o he_o know_v god_n full_o they_o grant_v he_o to_o be_v god_n for_o who_o can_v comprehend_v god_n but_o god_n himself_o and_o it_o be_v the_o selfsame_o
