cannot, when he comes in the Spirit) and the end of the World. Now the signes of the first of these are in vers. 14, 15.21, 22. Of the second in vers. 29, 30, 31, &c. And of the last, in vers. 36, &c. So that this of ver. 30, 31. must concerne some other thing than the end of the World. And that the three fore-named Scriptures are properly to be understood of the _Jews_, the texts doe show; for that of _Zechariah_, (from whence the other two places are taken) expresly saith, _I will poure upon the house of_ David, _and the inhabitants of_ Jerusalem, _&c._ and other passages to the same purpose in vers. 11, 12, 13. of _Zechar._ 12. And in the two places of _Mat._ 24. and _Apoc._ 1. it is expresly applyed to the _Jewes_; for in _Mat._ it is, _All the Tribes of the earth shall mourn, and see him_; that is, All the twelve Tribes scattered upon the face of the whole earth, and these shall be gathered by the Angels from the foure winds. And that of _Apoc._ 1.7. is clearly to be applyed also to them, for it is said, _They that pierced him, shall see him_; that is, the _Jewes_; and _All the Tribes_ (for so the word φυλαὶ ought to be rendred) _of the earth shall waile_; that is, the twelve Tribes scattered throughout all places. Now the _meane_ whereby these _Jewes_ shall be converted, is, _And they shall see him_; that is, Jesus Christ, for those words are in all the three Scriptures. It shall be such a sight, as the _Israelites_ had of the Brazen Serpent in the Wildernesse, it was healing to them. Such a sight as _Paul_ had of Christ in Heaven, upon which he saith, that he had seene the Lord. For particularities about this sight. I shall leave them, knowing that _secret things doe belong to God_. And because after that I had published in _English_, about last Autumne, the Booke of _Menasseh Ben Israel_, called, _The Hope of Israel_, I received a Letter from an Honourable Person, concerning that Booke, to which I wrote an Answer, and both containe some further discourse about the Jewes, and their Conversion; therefore I thought good to give you them, and they are these which follow.
