A57810	Maromah, the Lord of Rome the Antichrist, finally and fully discover'd his name and the number of his name, hitherto wonderfully hid in the words of Solomon and Isaiah, but now reveal'd beyond all scruple and doubt : to the most seasonable comfort of all the faithful, to the everlasting confusion of Pope and popish ministers, to the vindication, praise and encouragement of all Protestant witnesses, peculiarly [sic] the happy discoverers of the late most horrid Popish Plot : being a second sermon on Prov. XIV. 25, preacht in Istleworth Church on Novemb. 16, 1679 / by William Ramsay, B.D. ...	Ramsay, William, B.D.; Ramsay, William, B.D.

respect_n of_o all_o prophecy_n as_o christ_n observe_v to_o his_o apostle_n mat._n 24.15_o speak_v of_o daniel_n prophecy_n of_o the_o abomination_n of_o desolation_n whoso_o read_v say_v christ_n let_v he_o understand_v as_o if_o christ_n have_v say_v many_o have_v read_v that_o prophecy_n and_o you_o have_v read_v it_o but_o who_o have_v understand_v it_o none_o but_o i_o tell_v you_o now_o plain_o that_o it_o be_v the_o utter_a destruction_n of_o jerusalem_n which_o you_o shall_v live_v to_o see_v even_o so_o many_o have_v read_v this_o prophecy_n of_o solomon_n but_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o any_o have_v understand_v it_o till_o the_o appoint_a time_n which_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o be_v now_o but_o this_o prophetical_a obscurity_n be_v most_o peculiar_a to_o our_o case_n which_o contain_v the_o discovery_n of_o the_o name_n of_o antichrist_n and_o of_o the_o number_n of_o his_o name_n for_o of_o this_o very_a thing_n it_o be_v write_v by_o the_o prophet_n himself_o who_o speak_v most_o of_o this_o matter_n rev._n 13.18_o here_o be_v wisdom_n say_v the_o great_a prophet_n john_n let_v he_o that_o have_v understanding_n count_v the_o number_n etc._n etc._n belove_a be_v you_o so_o far_o from_o expect_v something_o obvious_a to_o every_o man_n that_o read_v that_o rather_o reject_v you_o this_o assertion_n if_o you_o find_v not_o both_o wisdom_n and_o understanding_n in_o it_o yet_o not_o my_o wisdom_n or_o the_o wisdom_n of_o man_n but_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o know_v how_o to_o couch_v so_o valuable_a a_o prophecy_n under_o the_o contemptible_a covert_n of_o a_o single_a term_n of_o solomon_n and_o now_o to_o discover_v it_o by_o a_o contemptible_a instrument_n when_o the_o very_a time_n call_v for_o it_o nay_o not_o the_o wisdom_n only_o but_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n be_v apparent_a in_o these_o long_a concealment_n of_o prophetical_a truth_n and_o the_o open_a revelation_n of_o they_o in_o their_o proper_a time_n for_o instance_n have_v solomon_n write_v in_o vulgar_a and_o obvious_a term_n that_o the_o lord_n of_o rome_n speak_v lie_n then_o have_v solomon_n book_n at_o least_o if_o not_o all_o the_o old_a scripture_n be_v burn_v by_o the_o lord_n of_o rome_n without_o some_o extraordinary_a miracle_n of_o preservation_n which_o do_v not_o so_o become_v divine_a wisdom_n who_o know_v how_o to_o order_v the_o matter_n better_o without_o they_o again_o have_v solomon_n write_v this_o in_o term_n obvious_a to_o every_o reader_n or_o have_v it_o be_v discover_v before_o the_o time_n then_o such_o lord_n of_o rome_n as_o have_v be_v witness_n of_o truth_n have_v be_v brand_v with_o a_o undue_a character_n now_o then_o be_v the_o time_n that_o this_o prophecy_n shall_v be_v discover_v and_o first_o here_o in_o england_n for_o here_o first_o by_o the_o most_o wonderful_a discovery_n that_o ever_o be_v make_v in_o the_o world_n the_o lord_n of_o rome_n appear_v to_o be_v indeed_o that_o great_a witness_n of_o deceit_n who_o speak_v lie_n and_o by_o lie_n destroy_v those_o soul_n which_o the_o great_a witness_n of_o truth_n come_v to_o deliver_v proceed_v we_o direct_o to_o the_o discovery_n the_o thing_n to_o be_v discover_v lie_v hide_v in_o the_o hebrew_n term_n which_o in_o the_o text_n be_v render_v a_o deceitful_a witness_n the_o hebrew_n term_n be_v in_o the_o

when_o he_o give_v his_o law_n to_o moses_n write_v without_o distinction_n of_o vowel_n and_o i_o can_v doubt_v but_o the_o divine_a wisdom_n appoint_v it_o so_o to_o this_o very_a end_n that_o many_o thing_n and_o prophecy_n may_v lie_v hide_v in_o that_o obscure_a write_n till_o a_o proper_a time_n to_o be_v discover_v and_o so_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v for_o the_o christian_n discover_v daily_o more_o and_o more_o testimony_n of_o the_o truth_n from_o the_o old_a scripture_n and_o confound_v the_o obstinate_a jew_n with_o their_o own_o writing_n the_o masorethan_n that_o they_o may_v either_o change_n or_o obscure_v such_o place_n in_o scripture_n as_o plain_o make_v for_o the_o christian_n against_o they_o find_v out_o this_o trick_n of_o write_v vowel_n which_o however_o in_o itself_o a_o perfection_n of_o writing_n yet_o be_v in_o they_o but_o a_o trick_n of_o corrupt_v and_o several_a place_n which_o they_o can_v not_o corrupt_v they_o utter_o reject_v even_o the_o whole_a book_n of_o daniel_n and_o consult_v to_o serve_v isaiah_n so_o but_o public_a shame_n can_v not_o permit_v that_o but_o prophecy_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o text_n which_o lie_v hide_v in_o close_a covert_n of_o word_n admit_v another_o vulgar_a sense_n as_o this_o word_n mirmah_n do_v such_o they_o can_v not_o attempt_v to_o change_v for_o they_o can_v not_o suspect_v any_o prophecy_n in_o they_o and_o i_o know_v there_o be_v more_o in_o the_o scripture_n and_o there_o may_v be_v many_o more_o which_o i_o know_v not_o in_o which_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n shine_v wonderful_o to_o he_o that_o understand_v and_o his_o gracious_a providence_n to_o preserve_v his_o truth_n from_o they_o that_o will_v suppress_v it_o utter_o be_v it_o in_o their_o skill_n and_o

this_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o vowel_n of_o this_o word_n mirmah_n be_v not_o of_o divine_a authority_n unless_o we_o have_v other_o authority_n than_o that_o of_o the_o masorethan_n but_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o word_n be_v original_o write_v by_o solomon_n be_v of_o divine_a authority_n that_o be_v m._n r._n m._n h_n which_o letter_n according_a to_o the_o exact_a analogy_n of_o the_o hebrew_n read_v make_v the_o entire_a word_n of_o maromah_n of_o which_o mirmah_n be_v only_o a_o contraction_n for_o the_o word_n maromah_n give_v every_o letter_n its_o vowel_n but_o the_o word_n mirmah_n cast_v out_o the_o middle-vowel_n o_o from_o the_o letter_n r_o and_o for_o the_o long_a vowel_n a_o put_v the_o short_a vowel_n i_o and_o so_o draw_v together_o three_o syllable_n into_o two_o maromah_n into_o mirmah_n so_o that_o the_o whole_a difference_n be_v from_o the_o vowel_n only_o which_o as_o all_o confess_v be_v not_o divine_a scripture_n if_o then_o the_o letter_n which_o be_v certain_o of_o divine_a authority_n contain_v in_o they_o a_o more_o profitable_a truth_n than_o what_o be_v express_v by_o the_o masorethan_n point_v of_o it_o and_o if_o that_o truth_n be_v plain_o confirm_v by_o other_o scripture_n then_o without_o all_o doubt_n we_o ought_v to_o embrace_v that_o truth_n and_o to_o use_v the_o word_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o the_o great_a advantage_n of_o it_o so_o see_v the_o scripture_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v real_o and_o literal_o maromah_n as_o well_o as_o mirmah_n we_o may_v read_v maromah_n as_o well_o as_o mirmah_n yea_o rather_o maromah_n than_o mirmah_n if_o maromah_n be_v more_o significant_a and_o conform_a to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o other_o scripture_n as_o we_o shall_v show_v it_o be_v we_o reject_v
