Prophet _Zephany_ saith the same, in _Zeph._ 3.9, 10. _Then will I give to the people that they speaking a pure language, may all call upon the name of God, whom they shall serve with reverence; from beyond the rivers of_ Ethiopia _they shall bring to me for a gift, Hatray_ the daughter of my dispersed ones, (that is, the Nations of _Æthiopia_.) Which agrees with that of _Isa._ _And your Brethren_, (which are the ten Tribes) _shall bring gifts to the Lord_. _SECT. 19._ And without doubt they also dwell in _Media_; from thence they passed _Euphrates_, whither they were first brought, as in _2 King._ 17.24 and in the book of _Tobit_. _Josephus_ also speakes of them in the Preface of his Book of the War of the _Jewes_, that the _Jewes_ did think that their brethren, who dwelt beyond _Euphrates_, and farther, would rebell against the Romans. _Agrippa_ in his Oration to the people of _Jerusalem_, that they would not rebell against the _Romans_, speakes thus; _What associates doe ye expect to joyne with you in your rebellion, and war? doth not all the knowne world pay tribute to the_ Romans? _Perhaps some of ye hope to have help from them beyond_ Euphrates. And in _lib._ 2. _Antiquit._ _c._ 5. speaking of those who in the time of _Ezra_ returned from _Babylon_ to _Jerusalem_, he saith, _All Israel dwelt in_ Media; _for two Tribes only dwelt in_ Asia, _and_ Europe, _and lived subject to the_ Romans; _as the other ten on the other side_ Euphrates, _where they are so many, that they cannot be counted_. It is not therefore to be doubted, the people encreasing after their first transportation, they sought out new places, which we have formerly mentioned. _SECT. 20._
