Or haply we may on this wise divide this matter peradventure more plainly: the restoring of Israel, or of all faithful, is verily either corporal, or spiritual. The corporal may be called historical, and was performed by Cyrus, Zerubbabel, Joshua, Ezra, Nehemiah and the Maccabees: And the spiritual ⟨p. 223⟩is fulfilled, or shall be yet accomplished by the coming of our wholesome Messiah our lord Jesus Christ. And the coming of the lord is of two sorts: the first in deed is in the flesh, in the which we believe many things, the Apostles bearing witness, to have ben fulfilled of Christ: in the latter he shall come again from Heaven into judgement. In that coming he shall most fully accomplish, such things as we see as yet not performed. And doubtless all our hope is hereunto referred, and comforted by this coming. Those things that are spoken of the Apostle in the .11. to the Romans of the conversion of the Jews, are fulfilled partly, and partly are fulfilled daily, and as yet shall be fulfilled.
Or happely we may on this wise diuide this matter perauenture more plainely: the restoring of Israel, or of al faithful, is verely either corporall, or spiritual. The corporal maye be called historicall, and was perfourmed by Cyrus, Zorobabel, Iehosua, Ezras, Nehemias and the Machabeis: And the spirituall ⟨p. 223⟩is fulfilled, or shal be yet accomplisshed by the cōming of our holesome Messias our lord Iesus Christ. And the cō ming of the lorde is of two sortes: the firste in dede is in the flesh, in the which we beleue many things, the Apostles bearing witnes, to haue ben fulfilled of Christe: in the latter he shal come agayne from Heauen into iudgement. In that comyng he shal most fully accomplisshe, such thinges as we see as yet not perfourmed. And doubtles al our hope is herunto referred, and comforted by this comyng. Those thinges that are spoken of the Apostle in the .11. to the Romains of the conuersion of the Iewes, are fulfilled partly, and partely are fulfilled dayly, and as yet shal be fulfilled.
