Brethren that this name of Jehovah that is 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Lord can not be given nor is it ever given nor is it found written but for the proper divine Essence as your Cabalists do say i. e. the 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 vein and sourse of all sacred and divine names and is called by them 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 a proper name and essential name and others they call them 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 surnames which may be found written with prophane significations as Eloim 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 which may signifie Idols or Judges or else Adonai written in this manner 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 which may be interpreted prophanely for my Lords but yet when this name is written with this word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Jehovah it cannot be allow'd otherwise than Sacred Holy and for Divine Essence it self Then if the Messiah is called with this title of 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Jehovah he must be God himself and not an ordinary man I observe also Brethren that the Prophet Isaiah speaking of the Messiah and of the names by which he is to be called saith 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 And his name shall be called wonderful Isa 9.6 Counsellor the mighty God the everlasting Father the Prince of Peace O grand Titles among the rest 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 the mighty God spirituality 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 God Humanity conjoyn'd 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 deriving from the name 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 which signifies Man Observe that ye shall not find in all the sacred Scriptures any particular person intituled 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 God with this word only the Messias which was to come for whom had been spoken al the Prophecies which have been in him fulfilled thus then the Messias is not only to be corporeal as ye believe but corporeal and spiritual both 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 as if 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 God and man And it was reason Brethren that it should be so for if we shall go about to consider the work that this Messias came to do and whence it proceeds we shall see that it was not expedient that he should be meer man for this Messias proceeds only as wel ye know by occasion of the curse given by God unto our first Father Adam for the sin of the fruit having said unto him 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 for ye well know where it is spoken duplicately by dying thou shalt die it s interpreted by your own very Rabbies that it treats always of two deaths that is death spiritual and death corporeal or temporal so that to the end that the world should not perish for this great sin the mercy of God hath found the means for to appease his justice and to save the world from this 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 diabolical serpent for ye know well what the Rabbies say 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 He is the serpent he is the wicked temptation he is the Devil he is the Embassador of death he comes down and tempts he riseth and accuseth he descends and takes the soul So that this serpent is nothing else but diabolical temptation for God promiseth to put hatred betwixt this serpent and the seed of the woman insomuch that he saith 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 He shall bruise thy head and thou shalt bruise his heel what else can this clearly signifie with the foundation as I have exprest unto you of spiritual death to which Adam was condemned the which as ye know must cease with the coming of the Messias as your Rabbies say 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 In the time to come the Divine Majesty will take the wicked temptation and behead it before the righteous to the end there may be no more temptation nor spiritual death but the remedy of all the evils as well temporal as spiritual which flow from sin might be obtained by the coming of the Messiah and for these so great effects a meer man was not sufficient and therefore he was to be God and man And the benefits of his coming were not to be extended to the Hebrews alone but to other nations also that all the world might be united in the
