erected by some devout Turk in nature of an Inne for the benefit of travellers of more or less receipt conveniency according to the bounty or fancy of the founder But here the guest must be his own host to entertain himself seeing generally nothing but a bare lodging and water is provided for him And though we pity the Readers bad lodging this night where if not bringing better accommodations with him he and his Camell must be bedfellowes in straw yet we promise him next day a pleasant way and handsome entertainment For about seven miles off he shall pass by Cave Ioseph where a Well will be shewed him full of water and adorned with marble Pillars which common tradition avoucheth to be the pit wherein Ioseph was put and a learned Frier very zealously stickleth for the truth thereof though indeed the story is confuted both by the distance and nature of the place For it is sixty miles from Dothan near Sechem where Iosephs brethren kept their sheep Besides that pit had no moisture in it save what fell from the eyes of Ioseph whereas this is full of water so that Iosephs dreams had been but dreams if put therein But it is as good as a bait to tired travellers whose credulity is swifter then the Camels they ride on to be refreshed in the way with such relations Some twelve miles off the reader may lodge in a convenient Cave called Minium by the Moors but by the Turkes Missia and if early up next morning may going south-westward before noon enter the Tribe of Zebulun Where we may in due time overtake him and hereafter give him larger direction for his travell § 14. From Iacobs bridge the river Iordan sees nothing memorable besides rich meddows and pleasant pastures untill he falleth into the sea of Cinnereth so called say some because in form not unlike a harp as indeed an active fancy in point of resemblance will fashion any thing to any thing How well the similitude suits the Reader will best judge when hereafter he shall behold the entire proportion of this Sea in the Tribe of Zebul●● where he may feed his fill on the dimensions and severall names thereof till which time to stay his stomach we here present him with such a parcell of this sea-lake as falls to the share of Naphtali At the influxe of Iordan into this Sea stood the once famous City of Capernaum called Christs own City Note by the way Christ had three Cities which may be called his own if seven contended for Homer well may three be allowed to Christ Bethlehem where he was born Nazareth where conceived and bred and Capernaum where he dwelt more then probably in the house of Simon Peter though born in Bethlehem § 15. This Capernaum was the Magazine of Christs Miracles Here was healed the servant of that good Centurion who though a Gentile outfaithed Israel it self concluding from his own authority over his Souldiers that Christ by a more absolute power as Lord high Marshall of all maladies without his personall presence could by his bare word of command order any disease to march or retreat at his pleasure Here Simon Peters wives mother was cured of a Fever and here such as brought the man sick of the Palsie not finding a door on the floor made one on the Roof Love will creep but Faith will climb where it cannot goe let him down with cords his bed bringing him in which presently he carried out being perfectly cured Here also Christ restored the daughter of Iairus to life and in the way as he went each Parenthesis of our Saviours motion is full of heavenly matter and his obiter more to the purpose then our iter he cured the Woman of her fluxe of bloud with the touch of his garment But amongst all these and more wonders the greatest was the ingratitude of the people of Capernaum justly occasioning our Saviours sad prediction And thou Capernaum which art exalted to heaven shalt be brought down to hell for if the mighty works which have been done in thee had been done in Tyre and S●don they would have repented long ●goe in sackecloth and ashes O sad strapado of the soul to be hoised up so high and then cast down suddenly so low enough to disjoint all the powers thereof in peeces Capernaum at this day is a poor village scarce consisting of seven fishermens Cottages § 16.
