But if the _Bishop_ should, what I am willing to hope he will, ingenuously confess, there ought to be such an Agreement and Likeness between _Moses_ and the _Messiah_ as is signified in the Objection, then he and I will go heartily to Work, and for the Honour of _Jesus_, whom we believe to be the _Messiah_, will absolutely demonstrate the Similitude, there is between him and _Moses in all Things_. And this, by the by, in the Opinion of our Fathers, is the _ONLY_ Way to prove _Jesus_'s Messiahship, _viz._ by his Resemblance to _Moses_, and by his Accomplishment of the Mosaick Types and Prophecy concerning him, who, upon his own Word, came to fulfil the Law and the Prophets _to a Tittle_. If the _Bishop_ and I should be so fortunate, and I trust in God we shall, as to prove a most apparent and manifest Likeness between _Jesus_ and _Moses_, even such a Likeness as my _Rabbi_ above demands, then shall we stop his Mouth, and soon pave a certain Way (which will be vast Honour to the _Bishop_) for the Conversion of the _Jews_. I don't despair of the _Bishop_'s joint Labours and Endeavours with mine to so great and good a Work (for I can't think in my Heart, that he'll otherwise wrangle about the Objection above) so (if the _Bishop_ pleases) we'll begin this Work with a Demonstration of the Likeness there is between the Redemption of the _Christian_ Church, and the Deliverance of the _Israelitish_ out of _Egypt_. Not only St. _Augustin_[395] hints that they who would show a Likeness between _Jesus_ and _Moses_ ought to begin here; but thereby we shall humour my _Rabbi_ in his Objection, who calls for (upon the concurrent Testimonies of _Jews_ and Fathers) a Proof of such a Likeness between the Redemptions of the two Churches, or he shall think it reasonable still to persist in his Disbelief of _Jesus_'s Messiahship. And if the _Bishop_ and I should be so happy as to shew in an apparent Manner, this Similitude between the Redemption of the Jewish and Christian Church out of _Egypt_, then meeting with Success in our Studies, will we proceed further, and illustrate other Prophecies of succeeding Times of the Church; for I will not part with the _Bishop_, till he is able to travel by himself, in his Contemplations on the Law and the Prophets, and to behold, what with an ordinary _Telescope_ at the Eyes of his Understanding he may discern, and show to his Episcopal Brethren, _Christ_ spiritually sitting and coming on the Clouds of the _Letter_ to the same Purposes that the old Jews, Fathers and Apostles say he is to come, _viz._ To open and illustrate the Parables and Ænigma's of the Scriptures, to restore Prophecy, to shew us God Face to Face; and to raise All from a spiritual Death to Life again. And blessed are all those, who love and desire such his Appearance.
