V. after the taking of Zion did intervene in that three moneths space while the Ark was in the house of Obed-Edom or were acted before the Ark was removed from Kiriath-Jearim is a matter of conjectural probabilities on either side yet I rather incline to the later opinion from Shihor of Egypt This Shihor chapter XIII verse 5 or Shichor or Sihor hath a notion of blacknesse in it And is not that rill or drill of water called by forraine writers Rhinocolura but is much rather the same with Nilus otherwise not once named in Scripture anciently by the Ethiopians called Siris by the Greeks Melas by the Latines Melo from the blacknesse of the water or rather of the mud and slime that it brings downe with it or the black colour of the grounds and soils it passeth through It is called by way of excellencie the River Esay XXIII 3.

In this Visionary Description The Portion or holy Oblation of Land for the Priests and the Sanctuary for the Levites for the Citie and Suburbs for the Prince was all at most no greater or biger then the several Portions for each of the other Tribes And therefore in that Draught of mine set forth by my learned and industrious friend Master Thomas Fuller in his Pisgah-sight of Palestine V. Book page 189. I desire to be rightly so understood and no otherwise The said Draught is represented there in a far larger Proportion But the only Reason was That so there might be roome enough for the setting down of the several Situations and Limits among themselves of the Priests Portion and of the Sanctuarie in the midst of it And of the Levites Portion by themselves And of the Citie Jerusalem and Suburbs of it by themselves And of the Princes Portion lying and guarding as it were all the former at both Ends East and West The true quantity of all this in relation to the other Tribes being no other then I have formerly expressed Daniel DANIEL was carried Captive in the first year of Nebuchadnezzar and the third or fourth of Jehojakim Dan. I. 1 6. And at this time began the Babylonian Monarchy and the Jewes Subjection or Captivity which lasted seventy years Daniel living and young was so famous for Prayer and Piety That in the thirteenth or fourteenth year of his Captivity He is matched with Noah and Job Ezek. XIV 14. And in the eighteenth or nineteenth year He is held such an unparallel'd patterne for Wisdom That the King of Tyre who thought himself so wise above others is taunted in these words Behold thou art wiser then Daniel Ezek. XXVIII 2. His Book begins with his own Captivity reacheth to our Saviours time Dan. IX 25. And ends a while after with the final Destruction of the Temple and Citie of Jerusalem by the Romanes Dan. IX 27. Daniels Prophecies stretch not beyond Daniels owne People the Jewes Some reckon the times thus seventy years in the Babylonish captivity or subjection to Babylon seventy years seven times or seven weeks of years that is four hundred and ninety years thence to our Saviours death And fourty thence to Jerusalems Destruction and the end of the Jewes Common-wealth in all six hundred years But others rather upon more likely grounds extend the number of years to a great summe His Book is Historical in the first six Chapters Prophetical in the rest The Language of it is Chaldee from chap. II. v. 4 to chap. VIII A little Arabique being intermixt in the sixth Chapter Because as some conceive the matters contained in those Chapters mostwhat concerne the Chaldeans and were things known to them or at least such as no danger by the knowledge of them accrued to the Jewes In all the rest before and after it is Hebrew the Churches dialect and treasure And yet here are sometimes some kinde of concealments from the Hebrews themselves in the darkest Visions chap. VIII 26. and chap. XII 4. The Chapters in Daniel fall within the reigns of several Kings Thus In the reign of Nebuchadnezzar in his I. Year Chapter I. V. Year Chap. II. VI. Year most likely Chap. III. XXXV Year Chap. IV. Belshazzar in his I. Year Chap VII III. Year Chap. VIII Last year Chap. V. Darius in his first year Chapters VI. and IX Cyrus in his third year first moneth Chapters X. and XI and XII So that in the Order of the Chapters there is this Transposition That the seventh and eighth Chapters as now they stand numbered and placed in order of time go before the fifth and sixth Chapters And for the matter of some Chapters Those Prophetical Dreames and Visions Chap. II. and IV. and VII and VIII and XI seeme mostwhat to expound one another falling so oft upon the same matters lesse or more and going over them or some of them still Nebuchadnezzar and the Babylonian is the Golden Head Chap.

That second year Dan. II. 1. is not of Cyrus the last word of the former chapter But of Nebuchadnezzar Nor of his Reigne or Monarchy either But in his reigne as the Hebrew distinctions in the Context seeme to import Namely the second year after the three years of Daniels education were past and he brought in to stand before the King which falls in with the fifth year of Nebuchadnezzars reigne and Daniels Captivity and with the eighth or ninth of Jehojakim In the second year in Nebuchadnezzars reigne Nebuchadnezzar had this Dreame and Daniel was then sought for to be slaine with the rest of the Wisemen and Magicians That huge Image of gold though hollow within as the two brazen Pillars were Jer.
