_David_, who shall be everlasting; and by the death of _Messiah_ the son of _Joseph_, the ten Tribes shall see, that God will not that they should have more Kings then one. As its already spoken. _SECT._ 27. Those Tribes then shall be gathered from all quarters of the earth, into Countries neare to the Holy Land; namely, into _Assyria_, and _Ægypt_; and from thence they shall goe into their Country; of which _Isaiah_ speakes, in chap. 27.13. _And it shall be in that day, that the great trumpet shall be blown, and they who were lost, shall come into the Land of_ Assyria; _and they who were cast out, into_ Egypt; _and shall worship the Lord in the holy mount at_ Jerusalem. As if he should say, as trumpets sound, to call any army together: so they shall come together, who were dead (that is, dispersed through all _Asia_) into _Assyria_; and the out-casts (that is, which are in _America_) shall come by the _Mediterranean_ Sea to _Alexandria_ of _Ægypt_; and in the like manner those who are in _Africa_, when _Nilus_ shall be dried up, and _Euphrates_ shall be divided; as we have already said. And because the gathering together of the captivity, shall begin at those who are in _America_, therefore _Isaiah_ saith, _The Islands shall trust in me, and the ships of_ Tarsis (that is of the Ocean) _first of all, that they may bring thy sons from farre, and with them, their silver, and gold_. They shall then come with speed from those Countries, prostrating themselves at the mountaine of the Lord in _Jerusalem_, as the Prophet _Hosea_ saith of that redemption in chap. 11.11. _They shall come as birds out of_ Egypt, and as _Doves out of_ Assyria; so saith _Isaiah_ in Chap. 60.8. _Who are those that fly as a cloud, and as Doves to their nests?_ They which come first, shall also partake of this joy, to see others to come to them every moment; for which cause the same Prophet saith, _Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold them who gather themselves to thee_. And because the two Countrys of _Assyria_ and _Egypt_, shall first of all kindly receive the people of _Israel_, and shall know the truth, first of all imbracing the Religion of the Jewes, sacrificing and praying to God, therefore the prophet _Isaiah_ saith, in c. 19.25. _Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the worke of my hands; but Israel is my inheritance._ For so those words are to be understood. _SECT._ 28.
