this_o salvation_n of_o the_o all_o of_o israel_n must_v be_v when_o the_o fullness_n of_o the_o gentile_n shall_v be_v bring_v in_o but_o we_o see_v not_o yet_o the_o manner_n or_o the_o mean_n in_o any_o forwardness_n the_o gospel_n be_v not_o yet_o promulgate_v to_o many_o and_o mighty_a kingdom_n of_o the_o gentile_n in_o the_o east_n and_o west_n indies_n or_o under_o the_o turk_n persian_a and_o tartar_n much_o less_o have_v the_o matter_n the_o come_n in_o of_o the_o fullness_n of_o the_o gentile_n be_v fulfil_v but_o on_o the_o contrary_a antichrist_n both_o eastern_a and_o western_a

the_o save_n of_o a_o few_o jew_n now_o and_o then_o here_o and_o there_o be_v as_o a_o nothing_o to_o fill_v the_o mouth_n of_o this_o text_n i_o mean_v to_o fulfil_v the_o word_n thereof_o but_o this_o be_v so_o far_o from_o fulfil_v which_o if_o do_v above_o all_o will_v convince_o unmask_v the_o mystery_n as_o that_o general_o all_o the_o jew_n and_o most_o of_o the_o universe_n of_o gentile_n be_v very_o ignorant_a of_o this_o mystery_n ¶_o 4._o that_o the_o fullness_n of_o the_o gentile_n and_o the_o all_o of_o israel_n must_v meet_v in_o effectual_a conversion_n and_o centre_n into_o a_o bless_a union_n with_o the_o universal_a visible_a church_n for_o this_o text_n and_o the_o thing_n therein_o contain_v must_v be_v fulfil_v as_o it_o be_v write_v and_o thus_o write_v that_o there_o shall_v come_v out_o of_o zion_n a_o deliverer_n etc._n etc._n and_o must_v be_v fulfil_v according_a to_o god_n ancient_a covenant_n now_o we_o have_v abundant_o hear_v the_o prophet_n
