argument_n which_o be_v draw_v from_o the_o many_o infallible_a miracle_n which_o be_v wrought_v by_o himself_o in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o flesh_n and_o by_o his_o follower_n afterward_o in_o his_o

set_v his_o own_o seal_n to_o it_o it_o be_v indeed_o the_o great_a confirmation_n of_o any_o testimony_n that_o poor_a mortal_n who_o can_v discern_v the_o essence_n and_o be_v of_o god_n be_v capable_a of_o receive_v i_o do_v therefore_o decline_v this_o argument_n because_o of_o its_o insufficiency_n to_o prove_v the_o matter_n in_o question_n or_o because_o any_o thing_n have_v or_o can_v be_v offer_v to_o evade_v or_o invalidate_v the_o force_n of_o it_o but_o to_o the_o end_n you_o may_v see_v our_o faith_n do_v not_o hang_v only_o upon_o this_o hinge_n i_o shall_v advance_v another_o argument_n to_o prove_v that_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n in_o who_o we_o christian_n believe_v be_v the_o promise_a messiah_n beside_o then_o the_o testimony_n of_o miracle_n we_o have_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o scripture_n to_o this_o truth_n and_o i_o remember_v our_o lord_n himself_o do_v appeal_v to_o both_o these_o testimony_n he_o say_v the_o work_v he_o do_v in_o his_o father_n name_n do_v bear_v witness_n of_o he_o and_o he_o bid_v the_o jew_n to_o search_v the_o scripture_n for_o they_o be_v they_o which_o testify_v of_o he_o and_o we_o find_v in_o the_o act_n of_o his_o

expect_v only_o he_o hope_v that_o by_o the_o scripture_n he_o mean_v those_o that_o the_o christian_n call_v the_o scripture_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n to_o wit_n the_o write_n of_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n and_o the_o hagiographa_n mr._n b._n reply_v that_o he_o intend_v no_o other_o for_o he_o be_v not_o insensible_a how_o the_o jew_n will_v object_v against_o any_o citation_n out_o of_o the_o scripture_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n though_o he_o add_v he_o can_v easy_o manifest_a if_o that_o be_v now_o his_o business_n that_o there_o lie_v no_o exception_n against_o they_o but_o what_o be_v of_o equal_a force_n against_o the_o write_n of_o moses_n and_o all_o the_o prophet_n but_o that_o he_o shall_v confine_v himself_o to_o those_o scripture_n which_o by_o the_o unanimous_a consent_n both_o of_o jew_n and_o christian_n be_v of_o divine_a authority_n and_o from_o these_o say_v he_o i_o shall_v make_v good_a these_o two_o grand_a assertion_n 1._o that_o the_o

of_o fellowship_n and_o become_v member_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n rabbi_n j._n answer_v that_o if_o those_o two_o point_n be_v clear_o and_o convince_o prove_v he_o will_v present_o renounce_v

defer_v the_o mention_v of_o they_o till_o the_o end_n of_o a_o long_a discourse_n mr._n b._n approve_v of_o his_o motion_n and_o therefore_o tell_v he_o he_o will_v purposely_o make_v a_o pause_n now_o and_o then_o to_o wait_v if_o any_o thing_n may_v be_v object_v or_o oppose_v to_o what_o he_o deliver_v then_o pull_v a_o hebrew_n bible_n out_o of_o his_o pocket_n he_o lay_v it_o before_o

of_o this_o assertion_n i_o may_v urge_v many_o place_n out_o of_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n but_o i_o shall_v take_v up_o only_o with_o three_o which_o be_v most_o considerable_a the_o first_o be_v in_o the_o book_n which_o we_o call_v genesis_n in_o the_o hebrew_n beresith_v you_o will_v find_v it_o in_o ch._n 49._o v._n 8_o 10._o there_o jacob_n be_v give_v his_o son_n his_o last_o

his_o father_n child_n shall_v bow_v down_o before_o he_o and_o far_o which_o be_v the_o passage_n i_o aim_v at_o he_o add_v that_o the_o sceptre_n shall_v not_o depart_v from_o judah_n nor_o a_o

be_v such_o as_o concern_v not_o the_o person_n of_o his_o son_n but_o their_o posterity_n in_o the_o last_o day_n by_o sceptre_n and_o lawgiver_n be_v mean_v the_o rule_n and_o legislative_a power_n that_o in_o process_n of_o time_n do_v settle_v and_o centre_n in_o that_o tribe_n of_o judah_n it_o begin_v in_o david_n who_o be_v of_o that_o tribe_n and_o continue_v for_o some_o century_n of_o
