And we have also the concession of their Talmuds, and most Learned Masters, fully § 32 consenting in this cause. So in the Talmud. Hierusul. in Chelek•. The world, say they, is created for the Messiah, [Greek or Hebrew], and what is his name, in the house of Rabbi Shiloh, They said, his name is Shiloh, as it is written, until Shiloh come. And in Bereshith Rabba, on this place of Genesis, The Sceptre shall not depart from Judah until Shiloh come, [Greek or Hebrew]; This is Messiah the Son of David, who shall come to rule the Kingdoms with a Sceptre; as Psalm 2. And in Beresh. Rebanna; until the Shiloh come, [Greek or Hebrew], For it shall come to pass, that the Nations of the World shall bring their gifts unto Messiah the Son of David. And Kimchi in [Greek or Hebrew], Shiloh is interpreted his Son, and it is a Prophecy of the Messiah; and innumerable other Testimonies, from them to the same purpose may be produced. Yea, this sense is so common among them, and so known to have been the sense of the Ancient Church, that the wisest among them turn every stone to retain this interpretation of the words, and yet to avoid the force of the Testimony insisted on from them.
