Chap. VI. What Conversion the Twelve Tribes have already had?
§ 2. 1. AS is aforesaid, The Saviour himself (and his Apostles) chose his abode on Earth among them; and calleth them the lost Sheep of the house of Israel; and the Children whose Bread must not be given to Dogs: They were the Circumcision to whom he was a Minister: He ordinarily Preached in their Synagogues, and there wrought most of his Miracles: It was they that cried him as King with Hosanna's: It was they that followed him to the Cross; and it was in Galilee where on a Mountain he appointed them to meet him after his Resurrection.
