such_o a_o opinion_n as_o this_o can_v be_v so_o swallow_v down_o and_o entertain_v as_o i_o see_v it_o be_v i_o say_v such_o a_o opinion_n as_o this_o that_o when_o antichrist_n be_v destroy_v the_o

the_o writing_n of_o the_o abetter_n of_o it_o that_o christ_n shall_v have_v a_o glorious_a reign_n here_o upon_o earth_n that_o himself_o shall_v personal_o and_o visible_o dwell_v here_o among_o his_o saint_n that_o this_o glorious_a time_n shall_v last_v a_o thousand_o year_n that_o satan_n all_o this_o while_n shall_v be_v bind_v so_o that_o there_o shall_v not_o be_v the_o least_o

day_n of_o judgement_n of_o a_o thousand_o year_n long_o shall_v begin_v with_o a_o bodily_a resurrection_n of_o the_o martyr_n only_o and_o shall_v conclude_v with_o the_o resurrection_n of_o all_o

according_a to_o that_o opinion_n i_o shall_v not_o trouble_v nor_o tire_v your_o patience_n with_o the_o examination_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o these_o particular_n i_o shall_v only_o lay_v before_o you_o six_o groundless_a and_o mistake_a principle_n as_o i_o conceive_v from_o whence_o i_o apprehend_v this_o exposition_n and_o opinion_n to_o have_v rise_v and_o refer_v they_o to_o your_o own_o censure_n and_o judgement_n three_o from_o this_o chapter_n that_o be_v before_o we_o and_o three_o from_o other_o place_n in_o the_o scripture_n first_o the_o maintainer_n of_o this_o opinion_n seem_v not_o to_o have_v take_v proper_a and_o serious_a notice_n of_o one_o phrase_n in_o this_o chapter_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v twice_o mention_v that_o it_o may_v be_v be_v sure_a to_o be_v take_v notice_n of_o and_o that_o be_v that_o satan_n be_v bind_v for_o a_o thousand_o year_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o deceive_v the_o nation_n for_o so_o it_o be_v express_v in_o plain_a term_n in_o the_o three_o verse_n upon_o his_o bind_n and_o so_o be_v it_o hint_v and_o intimate_v in_o the_o eight_o verse_n upon_o his_o loose_v now_o this_o opinion_n of_o the_o millennary_n speak_v much_o of_o satan_n bind_v so_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o persecution_n nor_o offensiveness_n in_o the_o glorious_a church_n they_o dream_v of_o but_o all_o peace_n and_o happiness_n and_o tranquillity_n and_o glory_n whereas_o this_o prophecy_n speak_v of_o no_o such_o matter_n it_o speak_v not_o a_o word_n of_o satan_n bind_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o persecute_v the_o church_n but_o it_o speak_v of_o satan_n bind_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o deceive_v the_o nation_n and_o how_o vast_a a_o difference_n there_o be_v betwixt_o persecute_v and_o deceive_v and_o betwixt_o the_o

the_o apocalyptick_a to_o speak_v in_o borrow_a phrase_n and_o figurative_a speech_n all_o along_o his_o book_n hither_o yet_o here_o they_o will_v have_v he_o to_o speak_v naked_o and_o literal_o without_o any_o such_o borrow_a and_o to_o mean_v the_o very_a bodily_a rise_n of_o the_o martyr_n from_o the_o dead_a whereas_o in_o all_o this_o chapter_n there_o be_v not_o one_o word_n of_o their_o body_n arise_v but_o of_o their_o soul_n live_v nor_o one_o word_n of_o their_o live_n on_o earth_n but_o of_o their_o reign_n with_o christ_n three_o they_o conceive_v that_o the_o very_a

the_o next_o chapter_n before_o and_o of_o christ_n kingdom_n for_o these_o 1000_o year_n so_o immediate_o after_o in_o this_o they_o think_v it_o must_v not_o be_v deny_v that_o these_o 1000_o year_n
