THe Iewes had a prophecie of Elias, not Thesbites, but one of their own Rabbins, a Cabbalist, mentioned in their Tal∣mud, or canon-law, that the world should continue six thousand yeeres, that is to say, two thousand yeeres before the written
setled law published by Moses, two thousand yeeres in the time of circumcision, and two thousand yeeres after Christs incarna∣tion. Which opinion wanteth not learned patrons, for defence of the same; albeit (in my iudgement) it cannot stand, as short∣ly shall appeare.
