and_o the_o part_n demonstrate_v and_o assure_v one_o another_o beside_o i_o vouch_v those_o undoubted_a and_o indisputable_a line_n delineate_v in_o the_o calendar_n as_o far_o as_o to_o cyrus_n indisputable_a i_o do_v not_o mean_v so_o much_o when_o they_o begin_v or_o how_o much_o time_n they_o comprehend_v for_o so_o i_o know_v there_o be_v many_o doubt_n through_o difference_n of_o copy_n

that_o he_o who_o begin_v a_o line_n from_o the_o creation_n continue_v it_o to_o cyrus_n and_o define_v by_o seventy_o week_n the_o space_n from_o the_o word_n go_v forth_o to_o the_o messiah_n

day_n lie_v on_o his_o two_o side_n i_o look_v upon_o as_o a_o especial_a contrivance_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n to_o mediate_v between_o the_o historical_a and_o prophetic_a pares_fw-la of_o time_n that_o be_v part_n historick_n viz._n to_o the_o time_n of_o the_o siege_n especial_o and_o more_o or_o less_o so_o to_o that_o vision_n of_o the_o new_a jerusalem_n and_o of_o very_o great_a

upon_o that_o and_o other_o the_o vision_n of_o ezekiel_n relate_v to_o time_n i_o have_v at_o large_a treat_v in_o that_o afore_o promise_a discourse_n only_o i_o can_v omit_v the_o prophetical_a

thence_o i_o can_v with_o great_a truth_n and_o sincerity_n make_v protestation_n it_o be_v no_o part_n of_o my_o design_n to_o enter_v a_o dispute_n with_o any_o persuasion_n of_o christian_n but_o only_o to_o pursue_v the_o line_n of_o time_n as_o it_o reach_v that_o illustrious_a sabbatism_n for_o which_o i_o find_v eminent_a person_n of_o all_o persuasion_n have_v very_o great_a favour_n but_o do_v this_o i_o can_v not_o avoid_v but_o that_o the_o antichristian_a apostasy_n as_o seat_v in_o the_o city_n that_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o revelation_n give_v and_o its_o prince_n be_v so_o fathal_o enwrap_v in_o all_o part_n of_o prophecy_n that_o they_o must_v be_v every_o where_o attack_v yet_o i_o have_v take_v care_n to_o do_v it_o only_o in_o the_o term_n and_o phrase_n of_o

that_o apostasy_n in_o any_o degree_n comparable_a either_o in_o clearness_n or_o assurance_n if_o disjoin_v from_o prophecy_n as_o when_o conjoin_v with_o it_o either_o for_o determination_n of_o theological_n doctrinal_a controversy_n or_o difference_n in_o history_n or_o chronology_n as_o when_o such_o corrupt_a doctrine_n superstitious_a innovation_n in_o christian_a worship_n usage_n and_o

resolve_v when_o prophecy_n have_v the_o umpirage_n for_o little_a intimation_n either_o derive_v from_o ground_n of_o scripture_n or_o reason_n or_o from_o history_n and_o general_n opinion_n when_o prophecy_n incline_v with_o they_o or_o suppose_v thing_n agreeable_o with_o they_o will_v weigh_v against_o vast_a volume_n on_o the_o other_o side_n with_o which_o prophecy_n propend_v not_o thus_o i_o be_o much_o more_o assure_v by_o observe_v what_o be_v after_o full_o discourse_v from_o prophecy_n concern_v image-worship_n however_o palliate_v that_o it_o be_v that_o so_o much_o detest_a idolatry_n forbid_v in_o the_o second_o commandment_n then_o from_o all_o rational_a discourse_n with_o prophecy_n however_o ground_v on_o scripture_n but_o not_o compare_v without_o prophecy_n for_o a_o full_a interpretation_n of_o it_o i_o be_o much_o more_o assure_v in_o what_o class_n of_o religion_n and_o church_n that_o religion_n and_o church_n be_v to_o be_v repose_v that_o on_o such_o
