they_o do_v not_o both_o end_n together_o by_o 45_o year_n that_o they_o begin_v together_o be_v evident_a for_o the_o 45th_o be_v the_o addition_n of_o so_o many_o to_o the_o 1290._o therefore_o bless_v be_v he_o that_o live_v to_o the_o forty_o five_o long_o than_o the_o 1290._o for_o although_o the_o church_n deliverance_n shall_v begin_v at_o the_o 1290._o it_o shall_v not_o be_v

this_o expositor_n have_v general_o judge_v that_o the_o 1290._o in_o daniel_n relate_v to_o the_o jew_n and_o the_o 1260_o to_o the_o gentile_a church_n but_o by_o what_o reason_n i_o can_v be_v

chap._n 9_o 26_o 27._o and_o this_o do_v relate_v to_o the_o take_v away_o of_o the_o sacrifice_n then_o in_o be_v of_o god_n own_o appointment_n which_o according_o be_v take_v away_o as_o christ_n
