A69640 An history of apparitions, oracles, prophecies, and predictions with dreams, visions, and revelations and the cunning delusions of the devil, to strengthen the idolatry of the gentiles, and the worshipping of saints departed : with the doctrine of purgatory, a work very seasonable, for discovering the impostures and religious cheats of these times / collected out of sundry authours of great credit, and delivered into English from their several originals by T.B. ; whereunto is annexed, a learned treatise, confuting the opinions of the Sadduces and Epicures, (denying the appearing of angels and devils to men) with the arguments of those that deny that angels and devils can assume bodily shapes ; written in French, and now rendred into English ; with a table to the whole work. Bromhall, Thomas. 1658 (1658) Wing B4885; ESTC R15515 377,577 402

body_n to_o make_v themselves_o visible_a and_o of_o this_o opinion_n among_o other_o be_v rabbi_n moses_n one_o of_o the_o most_o learned_a rabbin_n of_o the_o jew_n who_o say_v that_o all_o that_o which_o be_v read_v and_o record_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n of_o the_o apparition_n of_o angel_n do_v come_v by_o a_o imaginary_a vision_n that_o be_v to_o say_v sometime_o in_o sleep_v and_o sometime_o in_o wake_v but_o this_o position_n as_o saint_n thomas_n of_o aquine_n call_v it_o can_v prevail_v against_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o scripture_n for_o by_o the_o phrase_n and_o manner_n of_o speech_n which_o be_v usual_a in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n it_o be_v easy_a to_o know_v and_o discern_v a_o difference_n that_o which_o be_v signify_v and_o declare_v to_o
