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

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

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

in_o place_n power_n or_o pride_n from_o which_o certain_o come_v the_o name_n of_o the_o city_n of_o rome_n from_o the_o same_o verb_n you_o have_v also_o maroum_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a

be_v a_o usual_a term_n for_o lord_n than_o it_o will_v appear_v plain_o that_o maroum_n as_o maromah_n signify_v literal_o and_o grammatical_o the_o lord_n of_o rome_n for_o as_o it_o appear_v in_o

to_o that_o purpose_n beside_o the_o text_n i_o have_v note_v six_o place_n in_o this_o book_n of_o the_o proverb_n where_o solomon_n use_v this_o word_n and_o they_o have_v all_o a_o peculiar_a
