critical_a and_o full_a examination_n of_o this_o prophecy_n i_o shall_v reserve_v to_o a_o more_o proper_a place_n though_o i_o think_v it_o be_v necessary_a for_o i_o to_o dwell_v a_o little_a upon_o it_o on_o the_o account_n of_o what_o celsus_n jew_n think_v fit_a to_o object_v against_o we_o chap._n xlv_o one_o remarkable_a thing_n that_o have_v lead_v celsus_n and_o other_o infidel_n into_o gross_a mistake_v in_o this_o important_a affair_n be_v their_o not_o know_v or_o at_o least_o their_z not_o consider_v that_o the_o prophet_n speak_v of_o a_o twofold_a come_v of_o the_o messiah_n his_o first_o come_v at_o which_o he_o be_v to_o appear_v clothe_v with_o all_o the_o innocent_a infirmity_n of_o humane_a nature_n and_o str●●ling_v with_o the_o press_a inconvenience_n of_o a_o mean_a and_o despise_a condition_n that_o so_o live_v among_o man_n he_o may_v the_o more_o feel_o instruct_v they_o in_o those_o moral_a and_o divine_a truth_n which_o be_v important_a and_o high_o necessary_a and_o inculcate_v upon_o they_o that_o awful_a account_n which_o they_o must_v short_o give_v when_o they_o shall_v be_v summon_v to_o appear_v before_o the_o bar_n of_o god_n and_o his_o second_o come_v at_o which_o he_o will_v appear_v free_a from_o the_o least_o alloy_n even_o of_o natural_a imperfection_n and_o shine_v with_o the_o unite_a and_o unfullyed_a ray_n of_o his_o original_a and_o in_o some_o sense_n naked_a divinity_n twoved_a be_v tedious_a to_o relate_v all_o the_o prophecy_n that_o have_v a_o immediate_a and_o manifest_a reference_n to_o our_o bless_a saviour_n i_o shall_v therefore_o at_o present_a confine_v myself_o to_o that_o which_o we_o meet_v with_o in_o the_o forty_o five_o psalm_n which_o be_v entitle_v a_o song_n of_o love_n and_o where_o our_o saviour_n be_v express_o call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o god._n the_o word_n be_v these_o grace_n be_v pour_v into_o thy_o lip_n therefore_o psal_n xlv_o v._o 2_o 3._o god_n have_v blessed_v

we_o cry_v abba_n father_n the_o jew_n continue_v his_o discourse_n in_o the_o follow_a word_n abundance_n of_o person_n will_v find_v fault_n with_o your_o pretend_a saviour_n for_o apply_v those_o

of_o any_o person_n who_o rival_v our_o saviour_n in_o his_o miracle_n and_o just_o claim_v the_o title_n of_o son_n of_o god_n or_o the_o power_n of_o the_o supreme_a majesty_n but_o because_o the_o sincere_a and_o strong_a affection_n which_o i_o have_v for_o truth_n will_v suffer_v i_o to_o pass_v by_o any_o thing_n that_o even_o seem_v to_o oppose_v the_o christian_a cause_n i_o ready_o acknowledge_v that_o before_o our_o saviour_n incarnation_n there_o be_v a_o certain_a person_n who_o name_n be_v theudas_n who_o appear_v among_o the_o jew_n pretend_v to_o be_v a_o mighty_a man_n after_o who_o decease_n his_o delude_a follower_n be_v soon_o disperse_v some_o time_n after_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o tax_v during_o which_o as_o far_o as_o i_o can_v gather_v from_o scripture_n our_o bless_a saviour_n be_v bear_v one_o judas_n of_o galilee_n draw_v after_o he_o a_o considerable_a number_n of_o weak_a and_o credulous_a jew_n who_o affect_v novelty_n cry_v he_o up_o as_o a_o

only_o secret_o maintain_v by_o some_o few_o person_n of_o mean_a rank_n and_o figure_n and_o after_o our_o saviour_n appear_v upon_o the_o stage_n of_o the_o world_n one_o dositheus_n a_o samaritan_n endeavour_v to_o persuade_v his_o countryman_n that_o he_o be_v the_o very_a person_n to_o who_o the_o prophet_n have_v so_o plain_a a_o reference_n when_o they_o foretell_v the_o come_v of_o the_o

expression_n of_o gamaliel_n which_o we_o meet_v with_o in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n to_o show_v beyond_o all_o contradiction_n that_o the_o forementioned_a person_n be_v not_o intend_v in_o the_o promise_n which_o god_n give_v of_o send_v the_o messiah_n and_o that_o neither_o of_o they_o deserve_v the_o honourable_a title_n of_o the_o son_n or_o power_n of_o god_n but_o that_o of_o all_o the_o man_n who_o ever_o appear_v and_o make_v a_o figure_n in_o the_o world_n our_o bless_a saviour_n be_v the_o only_a person_n who_o can_v just_o claim_v it_o if_o this_o counsel_n say_v he_o
