all_o these_o thing_n may_v be_v do_v before_o the_o ten_o king_n be_v overcome_v and_o before_o the_o jew_n may_v be_v convert_v and_o the_o gentile_n fullness_n come_v in_o and_o before_o rome_n be_v destroy_v and_o long_o before_o that_o great_a day_n come_v and_o according_a to_o reason_v it_o will_v be_v a_o very_a long_a time_n if_o we_o shall_v judge_v according_a to_o sense_n but_o that_o we_o know_v that_o beyond_o sense_n and_o reason_n the_o lord_n can_v make_v a_o short_a work_n of_o it_o and_o cut_v it_o short_a in_o righteousness_n but_o if_o the_o scripture_n do_v give_v any_o hint_n of_o the_o time_n we_o desire_v to_o know_v it_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o i_o believe_v this_o be_v enough_o to_o satisfy_v a_o saint_n and_o to_o make_v his_o heart_n joyful_a to_o know_v that_o the_o time_n of_o the_o prevail_a power_n of_o the_o saint_n enemy_n over_o they_o be_v come_v to_o a_o end_n and_o that_o they_o shall_v never_o overcome_v they_o any_o more_o but_o the_o lamb_n be_v already_o see_v to_o be_v come_v upon_o mount_n zion_n where_o he_o have_v call_v out_o his_o call_v choose_a and_o faithful_a one_o with_o which_o he_o will_v go_v on_o conquer_a and_o to_o conquer_v and_o by_o who_o he_o will_v ruin_v rome_n and_o execute_v upon_o his_o enemy_n the_o judgement_n write_v i_o say_v this_o be_v matter_n of_o joy_n to_o a_o saint_n to_o know_v that_o christ_n be_v a_o do_v these_o thing_n though_o they_o do_v not_o know_v when_o he_o will_v finish_v this_o or_o that_o particular_a work_n but_o second_o and_o more_o particular_o for_o the_o year_n in_o which_o or_o near_o to_o which_o this_o great_a day_n shall_v be_v wherein_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o saint_n both_o jew_n and_o gentile_n that_o shall_v be_v convert_v shall_v be_v i_o shall_v here_o propose_v my_o apprehension_n and_o leave_v they_o to_o the_o judicious_a wise_a and_o intelligent_a christian_a to_o judge_n of_o they_o 10._o they_o dan._n 12._o 10._o and_o for_o this_o i_o must_v have_v recourse_n to_o dan_n 12._o a_o chapter_n which_o speak_v plain_o and_o particular_o of_o this_o great_a day_n of_o the_o final_a deliverance_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o general_n though_o particular_o it_o mention_v but_o the_o jew_n for_o the_o one_o can_v be_v without_o the_o other_o as_o in_o v._o 1._o at_o that_o time_n shall_v michael_n stand_v up_o the_o great_a prince_n which_o stand_v for_o the_o child_n of_o thy_o people_n and_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o time_n of_o trouble_n such_o as_o never_o be_v since_o there_o be_v a_o nation_n this_o be_v that_o great_a day_n we_o have_v speak_v of_o wherein_o there_o shall_v be_v such_o a_o dismal_a terrible_a time_n to_o wicked_a man_n in_o general_a as_o never_o be_v since_o the_o world_n begin_v but_o it_o shall_v be_v as_o i_o say_v to_o wicked_a man_n but_o not_o to_o the_o convert_a jew_n nor_o gentile_n not_o to_o the_o saint_n and_o therefore_o it_o follow_v in_o this_o verse_n and_o at_o that_o time_n thy_o people_n shall_v be_v deliver_v every_o one_o that_o shall_v be_v find_v write_v in_o the_o book_n when_o michael_n the_o prince_n i._n e._n jesus_n christ_n the_o great_a prince_n of_o israel_n even_o of_o all_o the_o israel_n of_o god_n shall_v stand_v up_o for_o they_o in_o this_o great_a day_n then_o will_v he_o vex_v their_o enemy_n put_v they_o to_o such_o trouble_n as_o there_o never_o be_v the_o like_a but_o all_o his_o own_o people_n who_o have_v give_v up_o their_o name_n to_o he_o who_o be_v list_v in_o his_o book_n shall_v be_v deliver_v this_o shall_v be_v the_o work_n of_o that_o great_a day_n and_o that_o which_o shall_v follow_v immediate_o upon_o it_o follow_v in_o v._o 2_o 3._o of_o the_o chap._n whereby_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o this_o chapter_n speak_v of_o this_o great_a day_n of_o the_o deliverance_n both_o of_o jew_n and_o gentile_n though_o to_o daniel_n be_v a_o jew_n there_o be_v no_o mention_n make_v of_o the_o gentile_n but_o of_o his_o people_n only_o well_o this_o be_v a_o prophecy_n of_o this_o great_a day_n let_v we_o now_o see_v what_o in_o this_o chapter_n be_v speak_v of_o the_o time_n now_o i_o find_v that_o this_o chapter_n speak_v of_o three_o distinct_a period_n of_o time_n in_o which_o three_o distinct_a remarkable_a thing_n shall_v come_v to_o pass_v in_o order_n to_o the_o deliverance_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o the_o first_o time_n mention_v the_o 6_o and_o 7_o verse_n speak_v to_o and_o in_o the_o 6_o verse_n this_o question_n be_v make_v how_o long_o shall_v it_o be_v to_o the_o end_n of_o these_o wonder_n to_o which_o in_o the_o 7_o verse_n a_o double_a answer_n be_v give_v which_o be_v confirm_v with_o a_o very_a solemn_a oath_n first_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v for_o a_o time_n time_n and_o a_o half_a and_o second_o that_o when_o he_o shall_v have_v accomplish_v to_o scatter_v the_o power_n of_o the_o holy_a people_n all_o these_o thing_n shall_v be_v finish_v now_o for_o the_o first_o of_o these_o answer_n because_o i_o have_v have_v occasion_n already_o to_o open_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o witness_n it_o in_o my_o book_n entitle_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o witness_n and_o have_v show_v that_o the_o same_o expression_n in_o the_o revelation_n and_o this_o here_o agree_v in_o one_o and_o point_n at_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n namely_o the_o flourish_a time_n of_o the_o beast_n the_o prevail_a time_n of_o the_o beast_n wherein_o he_o shall_v have_v power_n to_o overcome_v the_o saint_n and_o to_o trample_v they_o under_o foot_n even_o forty_o two_o month_n or_o a_o time_n time_n and_o half_a a_o time_n and_o have_v clear_v this_o and_o show_v when_o that_o time_n do_v expire_v and_o that_o after_o that_o time_n neither_o the_o beast_n nor_o the_o little_a horn_n prevail_v any_o more_o i_o say_v have_v speak_v of_o these_o thing_n already_o i_o shall_v refer_v the_o reader_n thereunto_o where_o they_o shall_v find_v that_o in_o 1645_o the_o beast_n cease_v to_o prevail_v against_o the_o saint_n and_o the_o time_n wherein_o he_o shall_v tread_v the_o holy_a city_n under_o foot_n than_o come_v to_o a_o end_n and_o neither_o he_o nor_o his_o associate_n shall_v ever_o prevail_v more_o and_o then_o this_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o the_o first_o answer_n to_o the_o question_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o time_n time_n and_o a_o half_a and_o then_o a_o end_n shall_v come_v in_o which_o time_n time_n and_o half_a the_o saint_n shall_v be_v keep_v under_o by_o enemy_n but_o then_o a_o end_n shall_v come_v and_o deliverance_n come_v and_o the_o second_o branch_n of_o the_o answer_n make_v this_o clear_o to_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o former_a which_o be_v in_o these_o word_n and_o when_o he_o shall_v have_v accomplish_v to_o have_v scatter_v the_o power_n of_o the_o holy_a people_n all_o these_o thing_n shall_v be_v finish_v in_o which_o first_o be_v clear_a that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o time_n when_o the_o power_n of_o the_o holy_a people_n shall_v be_v scatter_v the_o saint_n shall_v be_v destitute_a of_o power_n to_o oppose_v a_o enemy_n and_o consequent_o shall_v be_v keep_v under_o by_o a_o enemy_n second_o this_o be_v clear_a in_o these_o word_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o time_n when_o this_o shall_v be_v accomplish_v or_o complete_v i_o mean_v their_o power_n be_v scatter_v there_o shall_v be_v a_o time_n when_o it_o shall_v be_v full_o do_v for_o then_o a_o thing_n be_v accomplish_v when_o it_o be_v full_o do_v as_o much_o as_o
