say_v that_o in_o the_o eternity_n of_o god_n he_o can_v not_o perceive_v any_o interval_n of_o time_n because_o the_o interval_n of_o time_n consist_v in_o the_o motion_n of_o thing_n which_o be_v pass_v or_o be_v to_o come_v then_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o that_o the_o thousand_o year_n of_o our_o text_n do_v signify_v all_o the_o time_n of_o the_o reign_n of_o the_o saint_n from_o the_o bind_n of_o the_o dragon_n until_o the_o formal_a manifestation_n of_o the_o anti-christian_n jurisdiction_n at_o the_o lose_n of_o satan_n out_o of_o his_o prison_n as_o you_o may_v see_v by_o the_o 7._o and_o 8._o verse_n of_o our_o chapter_n and_o when_o the_o thousand_o year_n be_v expire_v satan_n shall_v be_v loose_v out_o of_o his_o prison_n and_o shall_v go_v out_o to_o deceive_v the_o nation_n which_o be_v in_o the_o four_o quarter_n of_o the_o earth_n gog_n and_o magog_n to_o gather_v they_o together_o to_o battle_n but_o for_o a_o clear_a explanation_n of_o our_o text_n we_o must_v observe_v the_o beginning_n of_o these_o thousand_o year_n for_o there_o remain_v the_o difficulty_n where_o many_o learned_a man_n have_v please_v themselves_o with_o their_o sancy_n for_o leave_v alone_o prosper_v who_o begin_v they_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o seventy_o week_n which_o daniel_n the_o prophet_n make_v mention_n of_o in_o the_o nine_o chapter_n of_o his_o prophecy_n some_o with_o alphonsus_n a_o castro_n begin_v the_o thousand_o year_n of_o our_o text_n after_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n say_v that_o these_o thousand_o year_n be_v the_o eternity_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o majesty_n and_o glory_n but_o the_o seduction_n of_o the_o world_n after_o the_o lose_n out_o of_o the_o devil_n as_o you_o have_v see_v in_o the_o 7._o and_o 8._o verse_n of_o our_o chapter_n evident_o show_v the_o contrary_a other_o with_o the_o millenaries_n with_o papias_n irenaeus_n tertullian_n lactantius_n and_o other_o begin_v they_o at_o the_o death_n of_o the_o antichrist_n but_o you_o may_v observe_v in_o the_o 7._o and_o 8._o verse_n that_o the_o devil_n be_v loose_v after_o the_o expiration_n of_o the_o thousand_o year_n the_o antichristian_a jurisdiction_n shall_v prevail_v and_o so_o the_o thousand_o year_n of_o our_o text_n do_v not_o follow_v the_o antichrist_n but_o precede_v he_o some_o of_o the_o rabbin_n ketina_n and_o eliezar_n among_o the_o jew_n will_v have_v the_o beginning_n of_o those_o thousand_o year_n after_o six_o thousand_o of_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o 7000_o to_o the_o very_a end_n of_o it_o but_o how_o do_v they_o know_v that_o the_o world_n shall_v endure_v neither_o more_o nor_o less_o than_o six_o thousand_o year_n after_o which_o the_o world_n shall_v have_v a_o rest_n of_o a_o thousand_o year_n the_o scripture_n i_o be_o sure_a make_v no_o mention_n of_o such_o a_o thing_n and_o therefore_o leave_v that_o opinion_n i_o say_v that_o other_o begin_v they_o at_o the_o passion_n of_o our_o saviour_n as_o gregorius_n and_o austin_n and_o pererius_n but_o although_o it_o be_v say_v that_o at_o that_o time_n the_o prince_n of_o this_o world_n shall_v be_v cast_v out_o s._n joh._n 12.31_o and_o that_o in_o the_o cross_n christ_n have_v spoil_v principality_n and_o power_n make_v a_o show_n of_o they_o open_o triumph_v over_o they_o in_o it_o yet_o you_o must_v know_v that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o beginning_n of_o satan_n bind_v and_o therefore_o i_o omit_v for_o the_o same_o reason_n the_o opinion_n of_o some_o learned_a man_n that_o begin_v the_o thousand_o year_n at_o the_o death_n of_o julian_n the_o apostate_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o reign_n of_o constantine_n the_o great_a for_o if_o we_o serious_o consider_v we_o shall_v see_v that_o a_o thousand_o year_n begin_v at_o the_o nativity_n of_o jesus_n christ_n at_o that_o time_n christ_n behold_v satan_n as_o lightning_n fall_v from_o heaven_n for_o at_o his_o nativity_n he_o take_v that_o strong_a man_n bind_v he_o and_o spoil_v his_o house_n as_o christ_n himself_o insinuate_v mat._n 12.29_o do_v not_o the_o devil_n know_v that_o they_o be_v bind_v when_o they_o beseech_v our_o

can_v not_o stand_v before_o he_o without_o fear_n and_o tremble_a as_o we_o read_v in_o the_o evangelist_n and_o the_o heathen_n themselves_z show_v we_o that_o the_o devil_n be_v bind_v at_o the_o

and_o i_o have_v read_v that_o all_o the_o image_n of_o egypt_n do_v fall_v to_o the_o ground_n when_o our_o bless_a saviour_n enter_v into_o that_o country_n to_o avoid_v the_o bloody_a fury_n of_o the_o infanticide_n king_n herod_n moreover_o some_o learned_a historian_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o roman_n have_v former_o consult_v the_o oracle_n to_o know_v how_o long_o the_o temple_n of_o the_o

the_o nativity_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n as_o be_v at_o that_o time_n so_o bind_v that_o he_o can_v not_o as_o he_o do_v before_o seduce_v the_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n for_o many_o of_o

you_o may_v see_v that_o the_o thousand_o year_n of_o our_o text_n begin_v at_o the_o birth_n or_o nativity_n of_o our_o saviour_n to_o continue_v until_o the_o formal_a manifestation_n of_o the_o

not_o know_v which_o way_n to_o turn_v ourselves_o so_o in_o the_o matter_n which_o i_o have_v now_o in_o hand_n i_o do_v not_o know_v whether_o i_o shall_v speak_v or_o keep_v silence_n i_o think_v that_o s._n john_n tell_v i_o that_o i_o must_v stay_v to_o contemplate_v the_o great_a wonder_n that_o be_v see_v in_o heaven_n at_o the_o open_n of_o the_o seven_o seal_n it_o seem_v that_o i_o must_v keep_v silence_n because_o the_o sacred_a angel_n do_v not_o speak_v themselves_o and_o dare_v not_o sound_v their_o trumpet_n lest_o they_o shall_v hinder_v the_o great_a agitation_n of_o heaven_n which_o appear_v in_o this_o silence_n indeed_o i_o can_v speak_v at_o the_o open_n of_o the_o first_o second_o three_o and_o four_o seal_v of_o the_o book_n in_o which_o be_v write_v within_o and_o on_o the_o backside_n the_o great_a mystery_n of_o our_o redemption_n the_o conservation_n of_o the_o church_n and_o the_o punishment_n of_o profane_a and_o wicked_a man_n for_o at_o the_o open_n of_o these_o seal_n there_o be_v no_o silence_n keep_v as_o you_o may_v evident_o see_v in_o the_o 6._o chapter_n the_o beast_n be_v angel_n or_o evangelist_n as_o some_o learned_a man_n will_v have_v it_o crying_z come_v and_o see_v i_o can_v break_v silence_n at_o the_o open_n of_o the_o five_o seal_n because_o you_o may_v easy_o perceive_v that_o there_o be_v no_o silence_n at_o the_o open_n of_o it_o hear_v under_o the_o altar_n the_o soul_n of_o they_o that_o be_v slay_v for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n cry_v with_o a_o loud_a voice_n and_o say_n how_o long_o o_o lord_n holy_a and_o true_a do_v thou_o not_o judge_v and_o avenge_v our_o blood_n moreover_o i_o can_v speak_v at_o the_o open_n of_o the_o six_o seal_n for_o at_o the_o open_n of_o it_o a_o great_a noise_n be_v hear_v behold_v there_o be_v a_o earthquake_n which_o learn_v we_o that_o we_o must_v not_o keep_v silence_n but_o at_o the_o open_n of_o the_o seven_o seal_n i_o do_v not_o see_v how_o i_o may_v
