THE SONS of the EAST BEING An EPISTLE written in English by Old Dr. Chamberlen Eldest Scarlet of Europe Senior to all Popes Cardinals Bishops and Doctors now living To the Synagogue of the Jews in London being a Remnant of the numerous People of Israel scattered into all Countries over the Face of the Earth who were once the peculiar Inheritance and only Beloved People above the Nations of the World wisheth Health Grace and Truth from God the Father of All by the Means of the True Messiah whose Coming Israel expects on Earth and Christians hope from Heaven in Glory AMEN Greatly Beloved Nation and People most Honoured of God I Dare not but Love and Honour you for Salvation is of the Jews John 4.22 And in the Seed of Abraham shall all Nations of the Earth be Blessed Gen. 22.18 I have heard that some of the most Worthy amongst You ha●● made some Enquiry after a few Christians who keep the Sabbath of the Lord Your God and Ours Wherefore by the Providence of God having been the First that endeavoured to rescue that Commandment from the Triple-crowned-little Horns Change of Times and Laws as was foretold by your Prophet Daniel Chap. 7.25 I am in some hope that God may provoke you to Jealousie by a People that were not then called his People Deut. 32.21 And having been conversant with several of your Nation in Italy Germany and the Low Countries I think my self the more engaged to salute you in mine own Native Country Of all the SYNAGOGVES beyond Sea I found the kindest and civillest Reception at GENVA in Italy Where after a few words spoken in Italian to the whole Congregation after they had intermitted their Devotions I was invited to the House of Rabbi ABRAHAM ATTIAS the next Day after the Sabbath where I met with 5 Rabbies more purposely come together to hear what I would say and to confer thereupon I had saluted them in the Synagogue as the Beloved Nation of God who once were the HEAD of all Nations but asked of them if they did not consider that now they were as the Tail of all Deut. 28.13 and lived scattered in all Countries as precario by Permission And what Prophet or Manifestation of Gods Love unto them had they found these 1600 Years since the Crucifying of the Young Man as they call him at Jerusalem Were they ever so long kept from some Prophet or Manifestation of the Love of God as since then So now being met I came to closer Questions and asked them Whether it was not a wonder that all Nations except the JEWS should be willing to believe in a JEW though they hated the Nation But the Jews and none else hated Him who was of their own Flesh and Blood Whereupon to take off the Obloquy of CHRISTIANITY I told them They must not think that was the Christian Religion which they saw at Rome and Italy in the Adoration of Crosses Images Pictures Reliques Wafer-Gods of Flesh and Blood and the Virgin Mary Queen of Heaven no more than we call it the Religion of the Jews when they worshipped BAALIM and ASHTAROTH 1 Sam. 12.10 c. We esteem none to be Jews but those who live according to the Law of Moses So I would not have them esteem any for Christians but those who in all things were according to the Gospel of Christ of which they all did unanimously approve Then I said I pray let it be considered what you can say for the Old Testament that I cannot say for the New Or what you can say against the New Testament that I may not by the same Rule alleadge against the Old Upon which the Learned Rabbi Abraham Attias lifted up his voice and professed He never Read more excellent Rules of Righteousness and of Holiness than in the New Testament I then proceeded and said was it incredible that a VIRGIN should conceive without a Man Was it not much more to believe a Woman made of the Rib of a Man or a Man made of the Dust of the Earth Or the Earth to bring forth Bears Lyons Tigers Elephants and all Beasts And the Waters to bring forth Whales with all Fishes and Fowles c. as Moses gives the Relation in the First and Second Chapters of Genesis But all things are possible to God as the Angel told the Virgin Luke 1.34 35 36 37. But I now Address my self unto you most worthy and beloved Friends when was or ever will be all the Promises and Prophesies fulfilled if not in Jesus Christ I shall onely offer some few to your Consideration First Gen. 3.15 I will put Enmity between Thee and the Woman and between thy Seed and her Seed it shall bruise thy Head and thou shalt bruise his Heel Why did not God say between Thee and the Man but between thee and the Woman And why not between His Seed and Thy Seed but between Her Seed and Thy Seed Was not the Woman her self made of Man And did not all the Generations ever since come from Man as well as Woman and begot of Man except the onely First-Born of his Mother Mary Is it not in effect the same with the Prophet Isaiah Chap. 7.14 A Virgin shall conceive and bear a Son and shall call his Name Emmanuel When was this performed if not in Jesus Christ Or if it were yet to be performed could it be more exactly fulfilled than in Him Secondly Gen. 22.18 In thy Seed shall all the Nations of the Earth be Blessed 1. Note He saith not in thy Seeds as many but Seed as one Gal. 3.16 2. Note That though it were to be the Seed of the Woman a VIRGIN yet she should descend from him and so that which was Born of her must needs be of his Seed also Thirdly In like manner of David The Virgin was of the Lineage of David and so was Joseph his supposed Father that Jesus might be the Son of David and King of the Jews by Inheritance Psal 89.3 4. Fourthly Deut. 18.15 Moses testifieth a Prophet will the Lord thy God raise up unto Thee from the midst of Thee of thy Brethren like unto Me unto Him shall ye hearken Now who of all the Prophets was like unto Moses unless you allow of Jesus Christ Whom the Jewish Apostles Peter and John urged to your Nation perswading them to believe in him Acts 3.22 23. And Acts. 7.37 urged in like manner by the Zealous Jew Stephen who was murder'd by the People and High Priests for reproving them of their murthering the Prophets and their unbelief With this also agrees Isa 33.22 The Lord is our Judge The Lord is our Law-giver or Statute-maker The Lord is our King and he will save us So Jam. 4.12 Joh. 12.48 Fifthly Psal 2. All along foretelleth the Lord Jesus Christ the Kings and Peoples dealing with him as hath been since performed And more that God calls him there his Son This day have I begotten Thee vers 7. Ask of me and I will give thee the Heathen for an Inheritance vers 8. Is not this fulfilled when the Heathen believe and obey him but the Jews do not Sixthly Psa 22. Is a Prophesie of the sufferings of Jesus They pierced my Hands and my Feet vers 16. They parted my Garments amongst them and cast Lots upon my Vesture v. 18. Is not the History in the very same Words Mat. 27. Mark 15. Luk. 23. John 19. Seventhly Psa 110.1 The Lord said unto my Lord Sit thou on my right Hand until I make thy Foes thy Footstool Of whom is this spoken if not of Jesus Christ If David then call him Lord how is he his Son Mat. 22.45 which is more plainly amplified by your Divine Prophet Isa 9.6 To us a Child is Born to us a Son is given and the Government shall be upon his shoul-shoulder His Name shall be called Wonderful Counsellor the mighty God the everlasting Father or Father of Eternity the Prince of Peace Can all this be said of God Or can it possibly be said of any other Man but Jesus Christ Immanuel the Son of God the Seed of the Woman and Virgin the Seed of Abraham in whom all the Nations of the Earth are blessed Can you believe all those things in Gods Promises and not in Gods Performances Do you believe them in God's Prophesies and not in Gods Fulfillings The New Testament is but the fulfilling of the Old How have you lost that value you once put upon all Gods Words was not Christ's Obscurity sufferings the Jews cruelty Isa 53.2 3 4 5. togeather with the Jews Unbelief and Hardness of Heart all foretold That they should not believe it though a Man declare it unto them Hab. 1.5 Acts 13.40 41. Thus you find it and yet do not believe your selves Dearly beloved Nation Strive not so eagerly against your own Salvation Jonas was Three Days and Three Nights in the Whales Belly Jh. 1.17 And so long was CHRIST in his Tomb Mat. 12.40 Ch. 27.63 Elias was carri●● to Heaven in a Fiery Charriot 2 Kings 2.11 And CHRIST ascended up into Heaven in a Cloud Acts 1.9 How long have ye been without an Ephod and a Teraphim Hos 3.4 and not sensible of it How long have ye been without Prophets and immediate Revelations and Signes from Heaven to you in perticular How long is the Scepter departed from Juda How long will ye wait for your Shiloh Gen. 49.10 How long for your Messiah and refuse him that is so long since come unto you will ye needs delay till ye look on Him whom your Fathers have pierced Zach. 12.10 If you would know more particulars command Most Honoured Nation Your most Humble Servant in the Lord Peter Chamberlen LONDON Printed for Richard Baldwin near the Black Bull in the Old-Bayly 1682.
