A77422	A brief description of the future history of Europe, from Anno 1650 to An. 1710. Treating principally of those grand and famous mutations yet expected in the world, as, the ruine of the Popish hierarchy, the final annihilation of the Turkish Empire, the conversion of the eastern and western Jews, and their restauration to their ancient inheritance in the Holy Land, and the Fifth Monarchie of the universall reign of the Gospel of Christ upon Earth. With principal passages upon every of these, out of that famous manuscript of Paul Grebner, extant in Trinity-Colledge Library in Cambridge. Composed upon the occasion of the young Kings arrival into Scotland, to shew what will in probability be the event of the present affairs in England and Scotland.

Therefore the Stone cut without hands in the 34 verse which smote the Image on his feet that were part of Iron part of Clay and so brake them to pieces that the Iron Brasse Clay Silver and Gold became as chaff of the Summer-flowers that the winde carried them away and no more place was found for them And the Stone that smote the Image became a great Mountain and filled the Earth must needs be understood of a glorious Monarchy of the Church of God upon Earth which by the Conversion of the Universal Nation of the Jews shall overcome all her Enemies and reign triumphantly in all Nations under Heaven in universality uniformity integrity and innocency of life and conversation This blessed and happy estate of Christs Church upon Earth after the aforesaid battel of Gog and Magog described Ezech. 38. and 39 Chap. of which enough before is graphically deciphered in the nine last Chapters of the same Prophet beginning at the 40 where under a specious and large type of restoring the old Jewish Temple with the Sacrifices chap. 40. the measuring ordering and disposing of it in every thing thereto belonging chap. 41. as the chambers of the Priests in the Temple the holy Utensils chap. 42. the glory of God filling the house chap. 43. his paternall upbraiding the Israelites for their antient Idolatry and demonstrating his great and affectionate love to them for the present chap. 44. is contained as I said before a pithy discourse how powerfull and magnificent these new converted Christians shall be how holy learned and unanimous their Ministers should be how ardent and studious they shall be in communicating the Gospel of Christ to such as yet sit in darknesse and in the shadow of death chap. 45. how vigilant their Princes and Magistrates shall be in being keepers of the house of God that is in incouraging the Ministers tam praemio quàm paenâ to inftruct the people in the knowledge of the truch that so both Ministers and people may render due obedience to their common Saviour in love to God and charity toward men And again the reserved portions of Land for the Temple City Priests and Princes all in just measures and dimensions the waters issuing out of the Temple ever increasing in Latitude and Profundity the severall divisions of the particular lots of

transported and implanted among those Nations they quickly conjoyned and counited with them in marriage and affinity being already long before coupled with them in Idolatry and so ceased to be called Israelites but being now all one people were called by the names of Armenians and Medes That these Israeltes likewise inhabited part of Tartaria and from thence spread into India and the East and that they likewise possessed a part of the Caucasian Mountains mingled with a people which Herodotus calls {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} a word not unakin to Turks is manifest by these undeniable Reasons 1. Because the Colchians Iberians and a great part of Tartaria used Circumcision in most ancient times long before the building of Rome which they could not have received from any people else but from these Israelites who 30. years before the foundation of Rome were sent to inhabit among them 2. The Crim-Tartars derive their Progeny from Sampson hence so many of them have been called Camson an obscure Notion of Sampson and in imitation of him wear long hair which could not have been except they had had their Originall from those people from whom they had the memory of Sampson 3. The names likewise of Moses Aharon Cham Selim or Solyman a vitious Pronunciation of Shlemo or Solomon were proper names of men amongst the Turks long before ever they broke into Asia Now what times the Turks first broke into Asia Chronologers agree not among themselves Some say they broke through the Caspian Streits into Armenia major now Turcomannia An. 844. But I rather suppose their first Irruption into Asia was 20. years after the death of Alexander the great about An. M. 3718. when the Parthians shook off the Macedonian yoke and began their Empire for in those times we reade in Mela Pliny and Herodotus that a barbarous and savage people from the North had invaded and possessed Carmania which could be no other then this Nation of the Turks Thus it is plainly manifest that when these Israelites passed into America they left a great part of their Brethren behinde them in Asia Tartaria and India Millions of them are in Persia and their domineering at this present day in Carmania is rightly observed by Benjamin the Jew in Eyre by Mercator Ortelius and other Geographers XIII Other excellent Proofs of the future conversion and Monarchy of the Iews I. From Abraham Abraham was told in Genesis His seed must thrice be like Dust and then afterward like Stars Stars not for multitude but for Piety and Glory once in Aegypt se●●ndly in Babel thirdly throughout the world in the Roman Empire and afterward in the beginning of the FIFTH MONARCHY must enlighten the whole world with the Glory of God And the Jews themselves have an ancient tradition That they must have two Messiahs The first should come about what time the Government was taken from Judah he should lay the Foundation of their Redemption afterwards be betrayed crucified and die by their own hands and leave them in a dolefull plight in the jaws of destruction by the Gentiles him they called Ben-Joseph or Ben-Ephraim alluding to sorrowful Joseph who endured so much hardship being sold by his brethren into Aegypt and estranged from his fathers house and to the unfortunate Attempt of the Tribe of Ephraim soon after that barbarous Edict of murthering male Infants came forth to deliver themselves and the Israelites by force of Arms from Pharaoh some 12 years before the Birth of Moses when Pharaoh levying an huge Army made fearful slaughters of them forcing them to return to their old obedience of which you may reade in Psal. 78. 9. In this doleful misery they should remain so long till their second Messiah came and delivered them from the hands of all their enemies restored them to their native Land of Judea and reigned over them in equal fame and prosperity with David their father Him therefore they call Ben-David II. From Isaac Secondly Isaac was moe wayes then in his Immolation a figure of Christ He had two sons Esau and Jacob of whom it is said The Elder shall serve the younger Edom which Jews interpret to be the Roman Christian Church the First-born to Christ from Isaac must come to serve the younger The Jewish converted Church in the end of time when it is once come up III. From Jacob Thirdly Jacob a Type of Christ in his Descent to Aegypt had two wives Leah a Type of the visible Church of carnal Jews using and leaning upon ceremonious shadows in stead of the true sacrifice from Moses to the end of the second Temple as likewise of the Church of the Gentiles which from the Ascension of Christ was to continue in vicissitudinary fortune to it's end full 1668 years Thus Leah was blear-ey'd but fruitfull in her posterity yet not so acceptable and lovely in the eyes of her husband as Rachel a Type of the glorious Jewish Church in the end of Monarchies who was to be many dayes barren even from the end of the second Temple till Anno 1683 then brings forth Joseph leaves her fathers idolatrous house within a few years after travels again and brings forth the staff of Jacobs old age with the losse of her own life IV. From the New Testament Act. 1. Fourthly That the Jews were to have a temporal Monarchy in the end of the Roman Empire is evident likewise out of the New Testament In the first of Acts our Saviour Christs Disciples shewed how greatly the Jews expected for this time when their Messiah should deliver them from the yoke of the Romans and restore them to their temporal Kingdom in Judea as likewise how near they thought the season and period to be in our Saviours time when they came to him saying Lord wilt thou at this time restore the Kingdom to Israel Our Saviour in his Answer doth not deny but that such a time was to be when the Jews should be restored to their temporal Kingdom in their own Land which should exceed Davids and Solomons in magnificence and should extend over the whole world but only blames and checks his Apostles for enquiring of that which neither was needful for them to know neither should be in their dayes as likewise for being too inquisitive in the times and seasons when it should be and was to begin Which said he the Father hath put in his own power And whoso reads Hos. 3. 4 5. the four last Chapters of Zechary Mich. 7. 15 16 17. Esa. 2. 2 3 4. and Chapter 27. 12 13. with Jer. 24. 6 7. with divers other passages in Scripture may plainly see that neither Solomons house nor the Maccabees ever obtained their full propriety nor were those Prophecies of their universall Soveraignty ever fulfilled in the Old Testament V From Moses Song Deut. 32. Fifthly The Song of Moses in the 32. of Deuteronomy is clear that many and great afflictions shall befall them in the latter daies even all the
