_Fourthly_, We _Gentiles_ were gainers by their casting away, the whirlwind of Gods wrath that threw them downe, brought us much profit, even salvation itselfe, _Rom._ 11.12. _The fall of them becomes the riches of the World_, ver. 15. _The casting away of them is the reconciling of the World_; implying, that we _Gentiles_ were poore, and miserable, till made rich, and happy by the _Jewes_ spoyles, who by this meanes are as wretched as we formerly had been. Which consideration must needs move an ingenuous spirit, to pitty those so undone. Our Lord saith to a _Gentile_, in _Mark_, 7.27. _Let the Children first be filled, for it is not meet to take the Childrens bread and to cast it to the Doggs_: They were Children, and we were Doggs, and we Doggs have got the Childrens meat before their bellies were full; which, as it should make us not to be high-minded; so also to pitty them, whose bread being taken away, and given to us, are brought to a starving condition. _Fifthly_, We shall be gainers by their receiving againe; it should be motive sufficient to us, that God shall be gainer by it, and that not only by the accession of a whole Nation to him, and also of that Nation, which is as the lost Sheep, the finding of which is a matter of great joy, _Luke_ 15. But also because as it is said in _Psal._ 102.16. _When the Lord shall build up_ Zion, _he shall appeare in his glory_. Now glory is a manifestation of excellency, and at that time Gods excellency shall shine forth, which is now much hid, and vailed; the excellency of his mercy, of his truth and faithfulnesse, to remember an ancient Covenant made about foure thousand yeares since, and his old friend _Abraham_, and the Patriarks; all which have seemed to be asleep for many Generations together. So also in _Isa._ chap. 12. compared with chap. 11. But not only God (which might have been a distinct reason) but we also shall receive great advantages thereby; for then there shall be not only an enlargement of good to us _Gentiles_, as a concomitant and synchronism with the _Jewes_ conversion (the mistake about which, hath, and doth cause black thoughts in some) as in _Apoc._ 7.9. after the sealing of the hundred, and forty, and foure thousand (which relates to the time of the forty two moneths) a great multitude, and innumerable, of all Nations, Kindred, Tongues, and people stood before the Lambe, and were cloathed with white Robes; now these numbers of all Gentile-Nations are to be converted at that time when the _Jewes_ are to be brought home; for it is to be at the sounding of the seventh Trumpet. But beside, the _Jewes_ conversion shall in some sort be the cause of it, else what meanes the Apostle in _Rom._ 11.12. _How much more shall their fulnesse be the riches of the Gentiles?_ and in vers. 15. _What shall the receiving of the_ Jewes _be_ (to the _Gentiles_) _but life from the dead_? The Apostle heightens the expression of the benefit by their
