Object of Worship and Religious Veneration or Esteem Jewish THE Jews worship only one God Jehovah Eloim without any distinction of Persons yet acknowledging a Messiah although the Books of the Old Testament which they own for Canonical do in several Texts sufficiently evince a Trinity of Perons especially Gen. 1. verse 1. 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 h. e. Dii creavit and afterwards mention is made of God the VVord and Spirit of God And in the same Chapter Let us make Man in the plural number The Messiah they expect yet to come tho' 1.

He cried out Lord of the World why dost thou give Men occsion of mistaking in thy most simple Unity And the Lord answered Write thou Moses and let him that desires to mistake mistake Menasse ben Israel Christian The Christians acknowledge One Only God Maker of Heaven and Earth but with distinction of Persons viz. Father Son and Holy Ghost Concerning which as a judicious and very Reverend Author of the Church of England is pleased to ●●●ress himself There are three distinctions in the Deity of which because the Scripture speaks in the same manner as we usually do of so many distinct Persons therefore since God is pleased so to accomodate the Mysteries to our Understanding as to speak of them in that manner it is both allowable and commendable in us to call them Persons But he would have us keep only to what the Scripture hath revealed about them without intermixing with them any of those unscriptural Notions which some Divines and School-men have added to them to explain them John Lord A. B. of Cantenbury in his Sermons concerning the Divinity c. of our Blessed Saviour God is One numerically One more One then any single Man is One If Unity could suscipere magis minus Yet God is so One that he admits of Distinction and so admits of it that he still retains Unity As He is One so we call him God the Deity the Divine Nature c. As He is distinguished so we call Him Trinity Persons Father Son and Holy Ghost In this Trinity there is One Essence Two Emanations Three Persons or Relations Four Properties innascibility or inemanibility to generate proper to the Father to be begotten proper to the Son to proceed proper to the Holy Ghost Five Notions innascibility to beget to be begotten to be breathed out to breath Mr. Hales Conf. of the Trinity Mahometan The Mahometans believe in and worship one God Eternal Almighty Maker of Heaven and Earth And that Jesus Christ was conceived by the breath of God in the Womb of the Virgin Mary That Jesus is a great Prophet but not the Son of God That he wrought Miracles and foretold to the Jews the coming of Mahomet under the Name of the Comforter M. de Thevenot That Jesus would come and judge the World c.

Jews THE Jews still pray for the re-edifying of the Temple with a still Voice that none can hear in these words Let thy will be before thy Face O God our Lord Lord of our Fathers that the holy House of thy Temple may be restored to our Days and grant us thy Will in thy Law And afterwards rising with great Joy and Clamour they sing a Prayer of Praise in hope thereof and sitting down again they read a long Prayer gathered here and there out of the Psalms and some whole Psalms and part of 1 Chron. 30. And lastly the last words of Obadiah v. 21. The Saviours shall ascend into Mount Zion to judge the Mount of Esau and the Kingdom shall be the Lord's Which they speak in hope of the Destruction of the Christians and their own Restitution they proceed singing And God shall be King over all the Earth in that day God shall be One and his Name One as 't is written in thy Law O God hear Israel God our God is One God And this word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 One in the next Prayer they repeat and resound for half an hour together One One One c.

Antonius gave God thanks for his Assistance in the Government of his Will The Southern Americans when they go to Wars carry their Gods along with them and ask Counsel of them for all Affairs Rosse Obedience to His Laws Jews IN every Synagogue the Book of the Law is kept within a Chest written on Parchment in great Characters and carried to and fro on two Staves fastened to each end of the Parchment The Book which is the Pentateuch is wrapt in Linnen and covered with Silk Velvet or Tissue The two Staves are called the Trees of Life When the Praecentor brings forth the Book they all sing Num. 10.35 Let God arise and let his Enemies be scattered c. After some Anthems are sung one comes and kisses the Cloaths in which it is wrapt and with a loud Voice blesseth God who hath chosen them before all others and given them a Law Then the chief Singer reads a Chapter and the Book is kissed again after that elevated on high the whole Congregation shouting This is the Law that Moses gave to Israel When the Book is wrapt up again all both Young and Old kiss it touching it only with their two Fingers And while it is carried back again they all sing again Return Lord to the many Thousands of Israel Numb 10.36 Mr. Rosse Obedience to the Divine Laws Muscovites SOme Lutheran Divines in Sweden and Livonia have made it a Problematical Question Whether the Muscovites were Christians or not The Danish Gentleman who published the Embassie he was sent upon into Muscovy from Frederick the Second gives the Muscovites a very true Character in two Lines when he says They are subtile over-reaching humourous self-willed obstinate insolent and impudent regulating their Reason according to their Power that they have shaken hands with all Vertues to run themselves into all manner of Vice D. of H. Ambass Trav. Ceylan A witty Man of Ceylan and a good natural Philosopher called Alegamma Motiar having conversed with the Jesuits and desiring to be a Christian desired to know what Jesus Christ had done and left in Writing and having read over the New Testament with that heed and study that in less than six Months there was hardly a Passage which he could not repeat after which he desired to turn Christian because he found their Religion such as Jesus Christ had taught but only he wondred That they themselves did not follow his Example for that he never yet could find by his reading that Jesus Christ ever took any Mony of any body but that they took all they could get and never Baptized or Buried unless they were well paid but tho he started the Question he was Baptized and became a Sedulous Converter of others Tavernier Part 2. l. 3. c. 3 Love and Reverence to his Name Word c.
