Num 26:44 [Of] the children of Asher after their families: of Jimna, the family of the Jimnites: of Jesui, the family of the Jesuites: of Beriah, the family of the Beriites.

Ver. 44. The family of the Jesuites.] Serrarius will needs derive the name Jesuites from Num 26:24; it is wonder how he missed of this plainer text.

God called the gathering together of the waters Maria {a} Dr Poynes {b} writes, that it was foretold in the Old Testament that the Protestants were a malignant Church, alleging, {2Ch 24:19} Mittebatque prophetas ut reverterentur ad Dominum, quos protestantes illi audire nolebant.
