A87478 The resurrection of dead bones, or, The conversion of the Jewes. In a treatise, wherein are clearly demonstrated the places where, and manner how the ten supposed lost Tribes of Israel do at this day subsist. With a description of the future glorious estate of the Twelve, at the incomparable union of Judah and Ephraim; which must shortly be in reference to its compleating the whole mysterie of mans redemption, and real establishing of the kingdom of Jesus Christ, after the Jews conversion. / Written by J.J. Philo-Judæus. J. J. 1655 (1655) Wing J19; Thomason E1501_1; ESTC R208651 64,571 139

israel_n the_o first_o objection_n be_v by_o a_o sort_n of_o man_n more_o rationable_a than_o the_o other_o sort_n such_o as_o the_o father_n term_v moralize_v and_o well_o dispose_v christian_n
