In the Talmud its self, lib. Saned. Tractat. Chelek: among other names they assign unto the Messiah, [Greek or Hebrew], is one; because it is said in this place, [Greek or Hebrew], truly he bore our infirmity. We have their ancient Rabbins making the same acknowledgement. To this purpose they speak in Bereshith Rabba on Gen. 24.67. This is Messiah the King who shall be in the Generation of the wicked, and shall reject them, and choose the blessed God and his holy name, to serve him with his whole heart. [Greek or Hebrew]. And he shall set his heart to seek mercy for Israel, to fast, and to humble himself for them, [Greek or Hebrew]; as it is said (Isa. 53.) he was wounded for our Transgressions, [Greek or Hebrew]. And when Israel sinneth, he seeketh mercy for them, as it is said again, and by his stripes are we healed. So Tanchuma on v. 13. Chap. 52. [Greek or Hebrew]; this is King Messiah. And not to repeat more particular Testimonies we have their full confession in Alshech on the place, with which I shall close the consent. [Greek or Hebrew]; Behold our Masters of blessed memory with one consent determine according as they received by Tradition, that it is concerning Messiah the King that these words are spoken. And therefore Abarbinel himself, who of all his companions hath taken most pains to corrupt and pervert this Prophecy, confesseth that all their ancient Wise men consented with Ben Uzziel in his Targum. So that we have as full as suffrage unto this Character of the Messiah, from the Jews themselves, as can be desired or expected.
