was a great Earthquake and the City fell with 7000 Names c. This Angel in the Sun might Preach the everlasting Gospel and Judgement also Bedan In Dan or in Mahane Dan as the Hebrew of Judges 13. 25. 1 Sam. 12. 11. which may shew us He was After That History of the Danites Judges 18. 12. An Angel also appeared to Josuah to Gideon as now to Manoah from Noah Rest. This man must give them Rest also and carry them through the Flood of His Generation As Noah did in His and Moses in His. And as they came out of Aegypt on the 15th Day at Sun-set or 360 Hours So this Sun also set about 360 Years from Aegypt or the Minha of the 15th Day 3 Times 40 make 120 the Moed and 3 of these Moeds make 360. 3 Times 40 more in Elies 40 Samuels 40 with Saul and Davids 40 bring us to Solomon Peace and the Temple founded in his 4th Year as the close of the 4th Moed or 4 times 120 or 12 times 40 being just 400 and 4 score Years from Aegypt as we read in the 6th of the First Book of Kings And 480 Hours bring up the last and great Day of Unleavened Bread the close of the Feast of Passover or 21st Day of the Month For Solomons great Feast of Dedication To be compared with the great Feast of Tabernacles in the 7th Month of the Year As His Feast was the 7th Month of the 7th Year of the Temple when it was fully finished and 14 Dayes as 14 Hours we saw before And although the Tabernacle was a good while at Gibeon of Benjamiu As the Ark at Kiriath-jearim of Judah as the very Temple Courts were parted between Those two Tribes Yet little Bethlehem also became a great Scene of Action during these Times of the Judges Thereabout was Rachel buried with her Idols which we may finde growing up Thence again In Michaes 〈◊〉 and the Falss Prophet also a poor Levite of Bethlehem Ephrata Spreading also to Dan as a Type of Jeroboams Calves of Aarons Cow to Dan also with Jonathan of Gershom of Manasseh where the Mazorites observe a signal Character to bid us pause till the Captivity of the Land as we read in Judges 18. Though it may lead us also to the Ark taken by the Philistines at Elies Death And as Elimelech carried his Wife and Children from Bethlehem to the Land of Moab so did David also of the same Bethlehem and of Elimelech by Ruth carry His to the same Moab And afterwards also to the Philistines where he sojourned as the Ark and Abraham and Isaak had done before him Dayes or a Year and 4 Months And so the Levites Concubine of Bethlehem also played the Harlot and stayed Dayes or a Year 4 Months In which places as that also of Rebecca Let her stay Dayes or a Year or 10 Daies in the Plural seem to speak a full Year As Two Daies in the Dual seem to intimate a Month. As Numb 9. 22. Dayes or a Year or a Month or Two Dayes 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 just 666. As the Moon returneth to the Sun in 666 Hours and to them at the Poles in Twice so many Dayes as the Sun in Months as we saw before We see how Idolatry was followed with Adultery and Both from the same Bethlehem as in divers Scriptures So St Paul ranketh their sins in the Wilderness by Idolatry Fornication Tempting of Christ and Murmuring 1 Cor. 10 and Jesabels Charge even in the Revelation is enticing to Adultery or Fornication with Eating but Eating things offered to Idols Both those Adulteries were severely punished For notwithstanding his Infinite goodness he knoweth How to punish the Ungodly but especially those that walk after the Flesh and speak evil of Dignities 24000 slain at Peor about 66000 at Gibeah which infected all the 12 Tribes with the 12 pieces of the Concubine and cut off Little Benjamin All but 600 men that fled and hid themselves 4 Months and Elizabeth hid her self Five Months in the Rock of Rimmon As Saul of that Tribe also had but 600 men left him after God had rejected him 1 Sam. 13 and chosen David who had also 600 men with him and parted also as These 600 by 200 and 400 to recover Ziglag and these 600 were kept up for his Guard we see in his flying from Absalon As also the Danites that Sacked Laish and set up Idolatry were 600 men as Shamgar slew 600 Philistines with an Ox goad of which we may read in Hoseah with other Prophets To be added to All before of 600 and 666. And as those things in the Wilderness followed Israels Vow Numb 21. So do These in Judges Jephtae's Vow and the peoples also for putting away their strange gods And as Serpents seized on them There so did Nahash the Serpent Here also till he was swallowed up by Saul as Death and Hell must swallow up the Serpent also in the Revelation Moses was bid to make a Seraph as the Serpents are called Seraphim the word for Angels in the 6th of Esay But Moses made a Nahash of Nehust a mighty Type of Christ who only can deliver us from the Serpent as old as Paradise and the Dragon and the Beast and its Image also made by Aaron or Micha or Babel or any other And yet Hezekiah durst destroy That Brazen Serpent and call it Nehustan a little piece of Brass So Dangerous is a lawful expedient or requisite Matter of Worship also when it degenerates to Idolatry or Superstition As the sourest Vineger from the quickest Best and sweetest Wine There was a strange Fate may we say that followed Those Serpents which bit Jacobs Heel so that he Halted ever after and their very next step was to Oboth Pytho's or Pythons As from the Serpent to the Devil And so also in Samuels time They were bitten with the Serpent Nahash and they murmur for Saul which is Hell Sheol Gods Scool and Mans Soul if God leave it as he did Israel here till they chose and sought their Saul As Samuel alludes and gives its Etymology 1 Sam. 12. And when you saw Nahash the Serpent You said Nay but a King shall Reign over us when the Lord your God was your King And now behold the King whom you have chosen and sought him or Saultem 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 1331 coming up to the double of 666 the number of the Serpent just 1332. But 3 less than Daniels 1335. And again he threatens a sign to make them see their great evil in rejecting God to Saul them a King Lisheol Verse 17. And when they heard the great Thunders in Harvest which should be remembred when ever so they cryed unto Samuel Pray for thy servants Nay but a King and now Thy servants Lest we Dye For we have dded to All our sins This evil also to Saul us a King Lisheol And then comes One of the sweetest places in the Bible Fear not c.

10 Cleds or Clades or 3 Moeds and an Half as 70 is 3 score and an Half But 3 of those Dors or Generations being 3 times Thrice 70 or 9 times 70 and an half make just 665. And Dorothenu Our Generations in Hebr. letters may make 666 670 676. And 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 the Word so often used by God For your Generations makes 4 above 1260 which is 10 Moeds and an Half As in the Revelation also 1260 for a Time and Times and Half which is Moed Moeds and Half a Moed in Daniel And His 1335 is but 3 more than Twice 666 or 4 times 333 As the 14th Day ended in 336 Hours 3 more than 333 the Evening Sacrifice or slaying of the Passover And the Temple Witnesses lay as slain by Antiochus 3 years and then Recovered by Iudas Macchabeus in the 148 year of Seleucus Nicanor the very same Month the Temple was polluted 3 years before 1 Macc. 1. 54. 4. 51. That was Twice 666 from Egypt or 1332 years and the Clensing 1335 Which was also 1290 years from Their setling in Canaan as Iosh. 14. 10. which was in the 46th or 47th from Egypt As Noah went into the Ark on the 46th or 47th Day of the Year And if we There fix the Pentecost which was not till they were in Canaan as Levit. 23 25. There may yet be Greater Harmony For as the years before This setling in Canaan may be as Hours from the beginning of the Year to the Day of Pentecost so all the years following This in Canaan may be reckoned as Hours After the Pentecost the 65th Day of the Year and Therfore about the 5th of the 3d Month. 430 more come up to Solomon 470 to Ieroboam As 470 Hours from the beginning of the Day of Pentecost end about the 23d or 24th Day of the 3d Month when the Jewes Fast to this Day for Ieroboams stopping all the First-Fruits of Israel from Ierusalem 430 more to the City Taken by Nebuchadnezzar ending as Hours about the 9th of the 4th Month the very Day when it was broken up As we read in divers places of the Kings and Ieremy 39 and 52. 430 more which make up Daniels 1290 to the Times of Epiphanes for which They Fast also in the latter end of the 4th Month as also for Moses breaking the First Tables at their Golden Image in the Wilderness which themselves account as a Type or cause of the Babylonian Image oppressing them or That Abomination of Desolation as the Macchabees call it of Antiochus that mighty Type of Antichrist Or of any other since On them and the Israel of God And yet again 222 more added to 1290 make 1512 the number of Hours in 63 Dayes between the Day of Pentecost and the 10th of the 5th Month. That Fatal Day when Amalek Canaan destroyed them to Hormah the Curss upon that Heavy Doom of Not Entring into Rest And for the first Temple Burnt by the Chaldeans Jer. 55. 12. and the Second also by the Romans on the very same Day of the 5th Month. The 65th from the Day of Pentecost as This the 65th Day of the year and its Morning Sacrifice was in Hour 1526 from Pentecost As the second Temple Burnt 1526 years from their setling in Canaan 1512 years After Enoch On the 18th of the same 5th Month they Fast for the Lamps put out in Ahaz time and for them that defamed the Good Land on the 17th of the 6th Month but All the first half of the 7th is little else but Fasts as the first half of the 7th Day was Darkness and the latter half was Light and Joyful Feastings ending all that years sorrow and their scatterings which Damel makes the Measure of All things foretold in Him As Chap. 12. 7. And his 9th saith Desolations shall be determined at the End of That War whose very first Crisis lasted till That season of the year in the 7th Month we are now Seeking Shall we view a Map of All in the 39 40 41 52 Chapters of Jeremiah First The City Broken up on the 9th of the 4th Month about 860 Hours after Pentecost As That 860 years from Their First Pentecost in Canaan Then the Temple Burnt on the 10th of the 5th Month As a Type of the 2d Temple Burnt by the Romans on the same Day of the same Month and same Course of Joyarib 666 years after Or 1526 years from That Pentecost in Canaan As 1526 Hours from Pentecost to the Morning Sacrifice of the 10th Day of the 6th Month. In which also they Fast for Aaron's Death a Type of our Saviour Dying before That Temple Burnt Then the Great and Rich and Mighty men were All carried Captive and the Vineyards and Olives c. Left to the Poor As promised Zeph. 3. Ezek. 34. Levit. 26. with Ex. 23. adding that What the Poor left the Beasts should eat Then the Witnesses slain First Gedaliah a Type of Christ the Great Lord and Then the 70 Elders those solemn Witnesses in Mourning and their Hair shorn c. And at Mispa the Watch of Witnesse to Jacob and his two Wives as we saw before And slain by the 10 Great Captains as the 10 Horns of Ishmael the Beast as the Angel called him Pere first mocking Isaac and now slaying him in a Name-sake and of the Seed Royal. And Then the Witnesses Rising again Or All the Captives recovered by Johanan the Lord's Grace or Gracious And at Gibeon where the Sun stood still for a new Heaven in Joshuah and a new Earth and Age in David yet but Types of more when God shall do his Work his strange Work as at Gibeon Isa. 28. Thence they go to Egypt as Christ when Herod slew the Children For Out of Egypt God alwayes called his Son And the Prophets and Revelation speak of their last Return as both from Babylon and Egypt And for the Times also besides the great and only Fast prescribed on the 10th of the 7th Month They Fast on the 7th for the Golden Image of the Beast They made as Psalm 106. a Type of the Beast slaying the Witnesses and on the 3d for Gedaliah slain in the seventh Month as Jer. 41 and the other 70 on the 2d Day after And 1290 Hours from the Temple Burnt on the 10th of the 5th Month 53 dayes and 18 hours come up to this Time which may be compared with Daniels 1290 dayes or years or 1260 in the Revelation written about 30 years After the Temple and City Burnt by the Romans As Daniel's Great Prophecy of 2300 days was just 30 or 31 years after the City sacked by Babylon Whose Times are All but 3 times 666 and an half or 2331 years and so but just 2300 from the 31st year of that account which was in the 3d of Belshazzar as we read in Dan. 8. to be compared with Baruch whence much of Daniels Prayer in the 9th expounding Levit. 26 as an absolute Promise of

Love And so before the fall he loved man And being fallen with a Sweeter better Greater Kinder kinde of Love of Pitty Mercy and most tender Bowels of Compassion Which was ever in that Infinite Fountain of All being But it appeared not abroad till the Wisdom of God contrived how to shut up some in fear and guilt that so he might at once shew Justice Truth and Mercy also which then Met and Kist Embracing one another And the Lord foreseeing and Resolving all this that so it should and so it must be while his Heart was such and such it must be while he was and is himself which was and will be ever and beyond all words that expresse Eternity He still spake so wisely that when he threatned most yet he lefr an Issue for goodnesse to come forth and shew it self with Truth and Justice too And therefore at the very first Command and Threatning to our Father Dying thou shalt Dye or thou shalt surely Die he did not tye his hands or bind himself without such Reservations as might still afford room large enough for Truth and Mercy both I shall not enquire at present upon what account it pleased the Lord to abridge Adam in Paradise of That which he granted before when he gave him for meat e-Every hearb bearing Seed and every Tree in which is the Fruit of a Tree yielding Seed which is not Usual with God To give and then to take away without demerit Nor do I say Adam obliged himself to that which he needed not if he had considered his former Pattent or his Deed of Gift But this I say in general there is not a Word Command or Threatning spoken to man that is not spoken by Christ And first therefore spoken by God in and to Christ who then speaketh nothing but what God said to him in him and As the Father spake it unto him so he speaketh unto man But certainly there was not any one word ever spoken by God to Christ either Precept or Threatning with any purpose to make him Despair But to Do believe and live And by consequence never any one Word or Threatning of the whole Law spoken by Christ to any man but As the Father spake it unto him not to make him Despare but believe and live For which also see Deut. 5. 29. 29. 29. Psalm 78. 5 6 7 8. 81. 13. Prov. 22. 19 20. Isa. 48. 17 18. Rom. 15. 4. John 3. 17. 17. 5. 34. 12. 47 48 49 50. 20. 31. Again I do not see plainly what God meant by Dying when he said thou shalt surely dye or dying dye Or that if he meant the worst of deaths for kinde he meant it so also for Duration Seeing Christ when he bore the Curse and its heavy weight did not dye such a kinde of death or at least for such duration as it is supposed to be here threatned And the very phrase here used to Adam is threatned to Davids Child by Bathsheba and to many others in the Scripture And to Hezechiah it is added Thou shalt not live And yet he did not die but live And David hoped that his Child might live notwithstanding that threatning dying it shall die or it shall surely die And sure when it did die he did not believe it dyed Etetnally or that this was threatned by that phrase so frequent also in Scripture And if God had meant any such Eternal death to Adam by that threatning it is somewhat strange that after the fall he removed them out of Paradise and guarded it so least they should yet eat of the Tree of Life and Live for Ever though he had said Thou shalt surely dye But to put the matter out of doubt We may see Gods Meaning of this Threatning in the 24. cha of Ezek. where he saith the people should so certainly die in their sins and pine away in their Iniquities with the most terrible expressions and most vehement assertions that can well be imagined as Because I would have purged thee and thou wast not purged thou shalt not be purged till I have caused my fury to rest upon thee I the Lord have spoken it it shall come to pass and I will do it I will not goe back neither will I repent But you shall pine away for your iniquity c. which is the terrible Threatning reserved for the last place in that famous and gradual Judgement so solemnly denounced in the twenty sixth of Leviticsn And As a Seal of this most heavy doom Ezekiel is strucken dumb and can no more admonish or comfort them so finally devoted to destruction so that he never speaks a word more to them from that 24. chap. to the thirty third And there God lets and bids him speak again unto the Children of his people By which very phrase we are led back to that sweet place we cited so lately out of the 19. of Leviticus of bearing no grudge against the Children of his people but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thy self thou shalt not hate thy Brother in thy heart but shalt certainly rebuke him and not suffer sin to lye upon him Which is the Text on which the Lord so comments to the Son of man whom God there setteth up as a mighty Type of Christ to be the great Watchman and warner to his brethren and his neighbours Or to be a light to lighten the Gentiles also each man and every Man that cometh into the World Adding also on that occasion that if a Nation or a people of a place do of themselves in a time of darknesse and danger choose a man and set him up for a Watchman or a Teacher or a Ruler among them there being alike reason God will own it as His Ordinance though but of Humane Choyce and Institution Which may be compared with That of the Apostle of submitting to Mans Institutions in Government even for the Lord or as an Ordinance of God To be much considered by those that reject Rulers or Teachers if they cannot shew a special Call or Mission by God Upon That occasion the Son of Man which also reacheth to Christ whose work is much described in Ezekiel hath his strict yet general Rules also when ever God threatneth Man And Then remembring the last solemn Threatning but now cited from the 24. chapter which was the last spoken to them He commandeth Thus O thou Son of Man speak unto the House of Israel Thus you speak saying If our sins be so upon us that we must Pine away in them which was the last great Threatning How then shall we or can we possibly Live Say unto them As I live saith the Lord God I have no pleasure in the Death of the wicked even of the wicked but that the wicked Turn from his Way and live Turn you Turn you from your evil waies for why will you die O ye House of Israel And then giveth that sweet and yet general Rule for interpreting All the

men who must be Honoured and Loved also as the Image of God our Father And the Greater Honour must be Given to the Weaker Vessel even as God also hath given it to That which might seem the most uncomely Which is an Argument that may be well pressed on Christ not only to bear with them that are weak but to give them the more Honour as the Weaker Vessel And those commands yea and Prayers also that we love and honour all men speak more of the unspeakable love of Christ who is the Root of this Spirit in All then can be Here exptessed by many Words The sixth Command Thou shalt not kill or thou shalt do All thou mayest to preserve thy own Life and thy Neighbours lyeth also on our blessed Saviour as the Text commented by many Scriptures Being by his Death to bring in Life and Immortality and to destroy Him who had the Power of Death the Devil and to redeem them who through fear of Death were all their life time subject unto Bondage Even as that pretious Psalm foretells He shall save the Children of the Needy and shall break in pieces the Oppressor He shall spare the Poor and Needy and shall save the souls of the Needy He shall Redeem their soul frrm Deceit and Violence from force and fraud and pretious shall their Blood be in his sight He shall Live and shall be tender of his Neighbours Life and how much more of his Neighbours Soul which himself hath said is so exceeding pretious and unvaluable From whence come Wars and Contentions Come they not from our lusts within us but the Wisdom from on high and sure then more as it is on high is Pure and then peaceful for without Peace and Holiness No man shall ever see God Gentle and easie to be entreated For the man of God must be gentle towards All men even those that oppose themselves being in the snares of Sathan and led Captive at his will A very sweet place when it is applyed to Christ also who is the great and good and best Man of God and therefore must be gentle unto All. No striker no quareler but gentle unto All. The man of God must not strive or fight Which also puts me in mind of That prophecyed of him He shall not strive nor Cry or braul in the streets the bruised reed he shall not break nor quench the smoaking flax till he bring out Judgement to victory over all Lusts and Pride Passions and Contentions Seeing This is the great Rule given us in the Psalms and new Testament also that he that loves Life and would see long dayes as Christ ever shall must refrain from strife and guile must follow peace and persue it and who will harm you in so doing when Himself also said next to the Pure in Heart Blessed are the Peacemakers which is much to be applyed in our Prayers unto him for They shall be called the Children of God as if himself also came to enjoy That Glorious Title of the Son of God by being so Peaceful and the Great Peace-maker To which also I may add Davids Blessing of Abigael and her Councel saying that when himself should rest from all his Enemies and Troubles it should be no Grief of Heart to him or offence that he had spared his Enemies also and had not shed their blood All This or much more lyeth in the sixth Command and from Thence is branched out in divers Laws in Exodus and other books of Scripture which all lie upon Christ made under the Law as much or more then any man to Man also as well as unto God his Father And we lose very much of the sweetnesse of the Gospel by not pressing the Law Yea the whole Law upon Christ that he may still keep it to us also as to God his Father seing it is vain to talk of Loving God if he do not also Love his poor Neighbour And who his Neighbour is we may see by divers places of the Law and Gospel compared especially in those which are branches of these great commands for loving our Neighbour as our self He that smiteth a man that he dye shall be surely put to death As of old to Noah the great Father of us all and so the very Law of Nations or Nature He that sheddeth Mans blood by Man his blood shall be shed for in the Image of God he created Man And that Image is still so continued and preserved by Christ who is the Head of every Man that the same Apostle calleth Man not onely the Image but glory of God If a man smite his servant or his maid with a rod that he dye under his hand he shall be surely avenged Which should keep a man in aw even to All under him For the Man of God must be gentle towards all c. If an Ox and by Consequence any other Beast or offensive Creature be wont to push with his Horn and it be told his Owner and He do not keep him in the Beast killing a man or woman shall be stoned and his Owner also shall be Put to death Which may be sweetly applyed to Christ who is the great Owner and Master of Sathan and all other pushing Horns of which if we complain as wont to Push and goar us or our Children is he not bound to keep him in and set us at rest from Him that pusheth at us Which may be hinted also in the Psalms where we find some complaining of pushing Horns as in the Prophets also and of the tearing Lion and Bear and the power of the Dog or other Beasts of Prey which the great Owner and Master must keep in upon Complaint that they were wont to push yesterday and the day before If a man dig a pit or do but Open a Pit digged by some other and do not cover it again so that an Ox or Ass fall into it he shall surely make it good How much sorer punishment if a man or his Child fall into it and perish which we may haply come One day to presse upon Christ also least he suffer us to fall into a Pit of his own digging or opening or any other Ye shall not afflict any Widow or fatherlesse Children for if thou afflict them in any Wise and they cry at all or do but begin to cry to me I will hear and surely hear their cry and my wrath shall be hot and I will kill you with the sword and your wives shall be widows and your Children Fatherlesse The word used in Heb for an Orphan is Jathom He shall be made perfect as well as He is wanting And the whole History of Jotham the Orphan of Gideon should be often read in These and all Times and the rather because That of Arma Gedeon in the Revelation may perhaps lead us to Gedeon As that of Sechem to Dina or Judgement as we touched before If thou●end mony to any of my people who are They the Poor that
