The fifth Chapter. Of Dreams; chiefly out of the book of Judges, the 7. chapter, vers. 13.
The fift Chapter. Of Dreames; chieflie out of the booke of Iudges, the 7. chapter, vers. 13.
The Jews seem to make three sorts of dreams. 1The first they account altogether natural. The second mere divine, as when one is cast into a sleep by God, and in the same is warned of things secret and hidden: as we know was done in the first man Adam, 2when Eve was framed out of his side. For the Lord cast him into a slumber, and (therein) instructed him of the conjunction between Christ and his Church. The same we know was done to Abraham, when as GOD cast him into a sleep, in the midst, 3between the pieces of flesh, and told him what should happen unto his seed many years after. The third sort of dreams is mixed of them both, and is common with the prophets, when natural sleep cometh upon them: but yet God is present with them in their sleep, and instructeth them of things to come; of which sort was that of Jacob, 4about the vision of the ladder.
