And Jesus _then_ told the Woman of _Samaria_, _all that she had done_: So will Christ in the _sixth Hour_, that is, towards the latter End of the _sixth Age_ of the World, give the Woman of the Church to understand _all that she has done_, according to the Writings of _Moses_ and the Prophets, who, upon the Testimony of the Fathers, have written a prophetical History of her, in Types, Symbols and Parables; which Understanding of the Things that have been prophecy'd of her, will enable her, of Consequence, to prove and declare to the World, with Joy and Pleasure, that _Jesus_ is the true Messiah, the Christ, and Fulfiller of the Law and the Prophets. But particularly, as _Jesus_ then told the Woman that _she had had five Husbands, and was then an Adulteress_ with one who was not her true Husband: So the Church will be made to apprehend, according to[139] _Origen_ and[140] St. _Augustin_, and others, how she has had five Husbands of the five bodily Senses, that is, metaphorically speaking, has been _wedded_ not only to sensual Pleasures, but to the sensible Things of the Letter of the five Books of _Moses_; and that at present, consequently, she lives in Adultery[141] with Anti-Christ, whom the Fathers call the Devil, instead of the Spirit of Christ, the Spirit of the Law, who should be her true Spouse, whom she should _call_ for, and believe in. And not only the Woman of _Samaria_, but the Men of the City, _Sychar_, believ'd _Jesus_ to be the Messiah, _v._ 42, upon what he said to themselves as well as to her: So the Ministers of the Letter, who are _Sycharites_, according to _Origen_ and _Theophanes Cerameus_, will be clearly convinced, and be able to convince others, that _Jesus is the Christ or Messiah_, when they shall hear, learn and apprehend from the Spirit of the Law and the Prophets, that the Church and all she has been doing, was foretold and prophecy'd of. Lastly, _Jesus_'s Disciples, _v._ 27. are said _to Marvel that he talk'd with the Woman_. What in the Name of Wonder, literally, could be the Meaning of this? Did they _Marvel_ at _Jesus_'s Condescention to speak to a Woman, as if the Sex was beneath his Care? Or did they _Marvel_ that he who was very bashful, had Courage to speak to one? Or did they _Marvel_ at his Conversation with a Whore, for fear of his being tempted by her? Some one or other of these must be the _Marvel_ of the Disciples; but how absurd and ridiculous they all are, according to the Letter, let a reasonable Man judge. But mystically, the true Disciples of our Lord, who understand the Mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, will, when they are apprized of _Jesus_'s spiritual Conversation with his Church, and of all the Things that she has done according to Prophecy, _Marvel_ with rapturous Astonishment at the Wisdom and Power of God in the Accomplishment of the Scriptures.
