Gen. 49. v. 10. [Greek or Hebrew], until Shiloh come. All the three Targums agree in § 6 the Application of these words unto the Messiah. Onfelos; [Greek or Hebrew], until Messiah comes. Jonathan and Jerusalem use the same words; [Greek or Hebrew] unto the time wherein the King Messiah shall come. An illustrious Prophecy this is concerning him; the first that limits the time of his coming, with an express circumstance, and which must therefore afterwards be at large insisted on. At present it may suffice to remark the suffrage of these Targums against the perverseness of their later Masters, who contend by all Artifices imaginable, to pervert this Text unto other purposes; who are therefore to be pressed with the Authority of the Targumists, which with none of their cavilling exceptions they can evade. The following words also v. 11, 12. are applied by Jonathan unto the Messiah in the pursuit of the former Prediction, and that not unfitly, as hath been showed by others already. See Aynsw•rth on the pl•ce.
