for Kingdome, there beeing two commings of the Messias foretold by the Prophets.
- 1 The one, prosperous, full ofMaiestie and Greatnesse.
- 2 The other, poore, humble, and despised.
Now, because the Vnderstanding doth commonly follow the affection of the Will, they did verily beleeue, that this his comming should bee in state and Maiestie, crowning himselfe King in Israell, taking all dominion and rule from the Emperour of Rome, from Herod, Pilat, and other inferiour Ministers; and the Priesthood from the Pharisees, who held it so vnworthily. This conceit and hope of theirs is prooued and confirmed by that which the Disciples said on their way to Emaus;* 1.1 But we trusted that it had beene hee that should haue deliuered Israell: Not vnderstanding as then, what was the deliuerance that Iesus Christ had purchased for them, but looking after some worldly prosperitie. But much more plainely out of that place of the Acts, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the Kingdome of Israell? In a word, They did fully persuade themselues,* 1.2 that all the world should be subiect to his Crowne; comforting their hopes with that pro∣phecie of King Dauids, His Dominion shall bee also from one Sea to the other, and from the Floud, vnto the worlds end.* 1.3 And for that hee might turne the wheele of this their vaine hope another way, hee sayth, To the chiefe Priests, whose seates you thinke to inioy, shall I be deliuered vp, and beeing presently put ouer to the Roman power, I shall by them be whipt, mockt, buffe••ed, crucified, &c.
