Times and an Half So as at the end of those Times and under that very Generation wherein the scattering shall be accomplished then shall be the Restoration of the Jews But the very Day or Year Mal. 24.36 much less the Hour time was when the Angels of Heaven did not and no Man did know but the Father only But this first Answer being Mystical and unintelligible to the Learned Prophet He Prayed for farther Information saying Himself to the Man in Linnen O my Lord what shall be the end of these things as who would say Dan. 12.8 When shall this Time Times and an Half begin or when shall He who is to scatter the Holy People Vers 11 12. and their Power appear unto which is Answered At the end of 1290 Days and at the end of 1335 Days from the Time that the Daily Sacrifice shall be taken away and the Abomination that maketh Desolate be set up Vers 9 10. This Answer was still Mysterious unto Daniel for it was to remain Sealed up as a Riddle hard to be unfolded until the time of the end but at that ends time the whole Mystery shall appear open and manifest unto the sight of all wise Men. And now that ends time seems to be come For our Eyes have seen and our Ears have heard the accomplishment of almost the whole matter come to pass For Observe we First That the Daily Sacrifice ceased on the 24th of July in the Year of Christs Incarnation 70 for want of Victims next the Abomination began to stand up on the same Year and on the next Month when Idol Sacrifice was layd upon Gods Alter and when the most holy place by Fire was Converted into Rubbish and was Troden with profane Feet and continuing in its Ashes it was made desolate But especially the Abomination and Desolation was then perfected at what time Idol Temples were erected in the Place of Gods House the whole Nation of the Jews utterly driven away Root and Branch out of the whole Kingdom by Aelius Hadrianus And this Abomination of Desolation and Cessation of dayly Sacrifice lasted until the Reign of Constantine the Great the first Christian Emperour who in the 7th Year of his Reign Euseb Eccl. Hist of Christ 313 set fourth Edicts in Favour of the Christian Religion Licinius Maximinus the other Emperours assented unto the same But in the End of the same Year Maximinus perswaded by his Magitians renewed the Persecutions but was Routed in Battel by Licinius and soon after in 314 Died of the hand of God And then every where Idolatry was Destroyed and Gods Gospel Worship was set up at Jerusalem all Idol Temples being there abolished and cast out Here therefore ending the Abomination the daily Sacrifice being restored Hence are we to begin the first Term of Daniels Times and to reckon onwards Ezek. 4.4 5 6. Dan. 9.25 26 27. The times mentioned are two whereof the first is of 1290 and the second 1335 days which according to the usage of Holy Writ are to be understood of so many Years as they are called Days And now count we from the Year of Christ 313 an Addition of 1290 Years and they will set us in the Year of Salvation 1603. Which is the very Year whereon King James came into England and began to possess the Crown of great Britain and on the same Year was the Saventh great Conjunction in the Fiery Triplicity and at the end of the Year was a new Star in Seventeen degrees of Sagitary And the second Term mentioned by Daniel which bounded his 1290 Years was the Time Times and an half So as 't was not the deliverance of his People which at end of those Years was forshewn for the Years are long since come up and gone by and no such thing is done and thefore it follows that at end of this Date or Term of Time the other mentioned by the same Author is to take place And thus after 1290 Years from the Abomination of Desolation set up is to follow a Time Times and an half and then is to be expected the Deliverance And so from the coming into England of King James there was to be expected a Time and Times and an half and then shall follow the Restoration of the Jews And whether we will have it the time of Reign of One King and Two Kings and an Interregnum or any other way and whether we will esteem these times to be reckoned by our Kings Reigns in England or Germany or at Rome it cannot be long to the end thereof The second Computation of Time mentioned by Daniel is 1335 days which also turned into so many Years and added unto 313 do set us in the Year of Christ 1648 at end whereof the most sacred Prince our late Sovereign of blessed memory King Charles the first of great Brytain Suffered Martyrdome and then the Sheepheard being smitten the Sheep were scattered Zech. 13.7 8 9. and many of them cut off and the residue were tryed and refined as Silver or Gold tryed in the Fire And on the same Year was the Grand Signiour or great Emperour of the Turks at that time Lord of the Holy Land cut off Summoned Tryed and Condemned by the pretended high Priest or Mufti and the rest of the Divan Mr. Ricants Turkish Hist somewhat after the rate of our Saviour And on the same Year were great troubles in the Empyress of Russia and Abassia and in France and at Naples in Jtaly and diverse other places But especially here in England both Magistracy and Ministry the two Holy Offices appointed by God Almighty and sometimes executed by Christ were utterly cut off and abolished and the whole Body of the holy People who had in any wise stood up in defence of holy Authority Power and Discipline in Church and State were diss●pated Slain and driven into Exile And he that did these things was especially the late Protector Oliver Cromwel a Man of obscure Birth who advanced his Fortune by perjury and Lyes Hypocrisy Murder Rapines and Rebellions and therefore appears to have been beyond Pope or Turk or Mahomet the greatest Impostour that ever was born and most Eminently the Man of Sin beyond all Men besides that ever were known or Read of And thus have we attained unto the utmost Term of the last Number in the Year of Christ 1648 9 1335 Years precisely since the Abomination of Desolation set up and taken down And now therefore Blessed is he who waiteth for that we have arrived at the Year 1335. And the time of the Gentiles seemeth to be fulfilled They having done unto a most holy Prince Defendor of the Faith true Ancient Catholick and Apostolick in a great measure as the Jews did unto Christ And now therefore to the Jews says our Saviour Look up for the Day of Redemption draweth nigh But unto the Heathens the Pagans Hereticks and Schismatical Christians Unto you
