As what is the opinion of all our historians about the apple old mother Eve tempted Adam with; why the devil should take the shape of a serpent; of the building of the tower of Babel 9 miles round by 5,00,000 men, who left off, confounded in their language; also, serious questions about Sodom and Gomorrah, Noah's ark, and Solomon's temple, informing us from scripture, what day that was that the like was never before nor never shall be; likewise, giveing an account of the destruction of Jerusalem, and the slaughter of 3 millions of Jews, and how the remainder were dispersed and scattered over the face of the whole earth; also, Josephus' and the Roman account of Our Saviour and the miracles wrought at his birth, particularly about the great Mogul and a divining ape.
