Moreover, the same Author saith; Nor […] it otherwise conceived, than that Moses did he•• speak by way of Prolepsis or Anticipation, […] Ambrose Catharini *opened the contrary, th•• next falls foul upon Tostatus: Yet, saith he, […] same Catharini affirms in the same Book, th•• nothing is more frequent in holy Scripture th•• these Anticipations; and among others our A••thor mentions one or two: it is said of Abraham, that he removed to a Mountain eastwa•• of Bethel, whereas it was not called Bethel till […] hundred years after, and Abraham knew it […] by that name; but Moses writing the History of Abraham (saith a French Protestant Divine […] calls it by Anticipation Bethel, which was […] so called till Jacob gave it that name,2 which before was called Luz. So in Judg. 5. 9, 19. […] said, the Angel of the Lord came up from G••gal to Bokim, which was not so called till afterwards. 3We also find in Exod. 16. that Mos•• said, This is the thing that the Lord commanded▪ Fill an Omer of it to be kept for your Generations, that they may see the Bread wherewith you have been fed in the Wilderness, when I broug•• you forth from the Land of Egypt.4—So Aaron laid it up before the Testimony to be kept.
