JERUSALEM'S

Captivities Lamented;

or, a plain

DESCRIPTION

of

JERUSALEM.

From Joshua's time to the Year 1517, both from
Scripture and ancient History.

1. The antiquity of the city, and number of (illegible text) inhabitants, with the depth and breadth of the trenches, height of the walls and the number of the towers that stood thereon.

2. The greatness of the people, and glory of the Sanctum Sanctorum, or the Holy of Holies; with a description of the birth, life, and death of our blessed Saviour, and the miraculous wonders that happened about that time.

3. The sad and lamentable destruction and desolation of Jerusalem, by fire, sword, famine, and pestilence.


To which is added, a singular instance of
TURKISH JUSTICE.
