The Mystery of Israel's Salvation, Explained and Applied
A Discourse Concerning the General Conversion of the Jewish Nation

Date of publication: 1669. This is a collaborative work by several prominent 17th-century Puritan ministers:

ABOUT THE AUTHORS
INCREASE MATHER (1639-1723): Influential Boston minister, president of Harvard College, and one of the most significant figures in Colonial American Christianity. His writings shaped both theological and political discourse in early America.
JOHN DAVENPORT (1597-1670): Co-founder of New Haven Colony, respected biblical scholar, and powerful preacher known for his uncompromising commitment to scriptural authority.
WILLIAM GREENHILL (1591-1671): Prominent English Puritan minister and member of the Westminster Assembly. His exposition of Ezekiel remained a standard work for centuries.
WILLIAM HOOKE (1600/1601-1678): Minister who served congregations in both England and New England, known for his careful biblical exposition and pastoral heart.

For over three centuries, one of the most comprehensive Puritan treatments of these questions has remained locked away in archaic language, accessible only to scholars until now.

THE HISTORICAL CONTEXT
It's 1666. The Great Fire of London consumed the city. Europe is convulsed with war. Jewish communities across the continent face persecution and exile. And in the wilderness of colonial New England, four brilliant Puritan divines—Increase Mather, John Davenport, William Greenhill, and William Hooke—turn to Scripture with urgent questions:

• What is God doing in these catastrophic events?
• Do the prophecies concerning Israel's restoration still apply?
• Are these the signs Jesus spoke of that would precede His return?
• How should Christians pray and prepare?

The result of their study is this treatise: a masterful exposition of Romans 11 and related prophecies, arguing that God's covenant with Israel remains unbroken and that a future mass conversion of the Jewish people is both biblically certain and perhaps imminent.

WHAT MAKES THIS WORK UNIQUE
BIBLICAL DEPTH WITHOUT SENSATIONALISM
In an age of prophecy speculation and date-setting, this work models careful exegesis. Every claim is grounded in Scripture. Every objection is anticipated and addressed. The result is theology you can trust.
REFORMED PERSPECTIVE ON ISRAEL
Many assume that Reformed theology necessarily leads to replacement theology (the view that the Church has replaced Israel in God's plan). These Puritan divines demonstrate otherwise, showing how covenantal theology actually requires taking God's promises to Israel seriously.
PRACTICAL APPLICATION
The Puritans never studied theology for mere intellectual exercise. This work concludes with passionate calls to action: Study prophecy diligently. Walk in holiness. Pray fervently. Recognize the signs of the times. Prepare for Christ's return.
