A81722	Sacred chronologie, drawn by scripture evidence al-along that vast body of time, (containing the space of almost four thousand years) from the creation of the world, to the passion of our blessed Saviour. By the help of which alone, sundry difficult places of Scripture are unfolded: and the meanest capacity may improve that holy record with abundance of delight and profit: being enabled thereby to refer each several historie and material passage therein contained to its proper time and date. / By R.

eightie seventh yeer currant I should conceive that Messias was to suffer Anno Mundi 3952. Might not Daniel well have answered I pray pardon me there for to tell you the Truth I know not whether the seventy weeks begin the first yeer of Cyrus or in the raign of some other King and am still to seek in what yeer of the world Christ shall suffer By all which its apparent That either the seventie weeks began with the first of Cyrus and the last of the Babilonish Captivitie or else for all Gabriels vision he was still ignorant when Christ should suffer as knowing not when the seventie weeks were to begin The next or fifth difficulty is about the Jubilees which some make to contain fourtie and nine others fiftie solid yeers To me it seems probable they contain but fourtie and nine solid yeers a peece so that the fiftieth or Jubilee yeer is the last of the preceding Jubilee and the first of the following Jubilee and that upon this ground because otherwise the course of the Sabbatical yeers must needs be broken once every fiftie yeers by a yeer added to every seven weeks of yeers which make just fourty and nine yeers so that the seventh week of the Jubilee must contain eight yeers which is as absurd as to say a week contains eight dayes Now whereas there are two sorts of Jubilees namely the Jubilees of the World and the Jubilees of Canaan the question is when the Jubilees of Canaan begin Ordinarily they are reckoned from the Conquest of the Land by Joshuah that is about seven yeers after they entred Canaan To me it seems far more probable they rather began the September after Canaan was entred Levit. 25.2 The Scripture sayes not when you have Conquered but when you come into the Land which I shall give you then shall the Land keep a Sabbath unto the Lord. The first Sabbath of yeers then began the Autumne after their entrance into Canaan which they entred in the Spring in the tenth day of the seventh moneth Seven of which Sabbaths made fourtie and nine yeers and so the fiftieth yeer or the yeer of Jubilee began on the tenth day of the seventh Moneth and was proclaimed by sound of Trumpet throughout all the Land in the very day of Atonement Levit. 25.9 10. I conclude then that the fiftieth yeer after they entred Canaan was the yeer of Jubilee and not the fiftie seventh yeer as some would have it And after this rate as appears in my Chronologie the Jubilees of Canaan run parallel with the Jubilees of the World and are noted in the top of the Columne that contains the Sabbatical yeers Yet to give satisfaction I have noted in the Columne containing the yeers of the World the Jubilees that contain fifty solid yeers and in the Columne of the Sabbatical yeers I have noted both the Jubilees that began at their entrance and also seven yeer after they entred Canaan Thus p. 53. in the top of the Columne for the Sabbatical yeer the fiftie ninth Jubilee of the World and the seventh Jubilee of Canaan concur with the eight and twentieth yeer of Elies government after my account but after the ordinary account the seventh Jubilee concurs with the thirty fifth yeer of Ely If we reckon fifty yeers to a Jubilee the seventh Jubilee concurs with the first yeer of Saul as is noted in the same Column the reason is clear because every Jubilee gains a yeer and therefore the seventh Jubilee must needs fall seven yeers later In the same page my fifty and ninth Iubilee concurs with the twenty eighth of Ely but if we reckon fiftie yeers to a Jubilee then the fifty eighth Jubilee of the world concurs with the thirty sixth of Ely 9. yeer later then the former the reason is because a yeer is gained in every Jubilee and so the fifty eighth Jubilee containing fifty yeers falls later than the fifty ninth Jubilee containing but fourty nine yeers The sixth Difficulty is about the Expiration or end of Daniels seventy weeks which some terminate with the death of Christ others with the destruction of Jerusalem Daniel seems cleerly to terminate them with the death of Christ Daniel 9.24 by which he made reconciliation for sinne brought in everlasting Righteousness c. Of which their return from Captivity was but a type and shadow Nor doth it follow that the seventy weeks reach to the destruction of Jerusalem because mention thereof is made in this Prophesie For besides that the twenty fourth verse determines the seventy weeks in the Death Resurrection and Ascension of Christ It s further evident by the several parcels of the seventie weeks verse 25 26. seven weeks and sixty two weeks after which Messias was to be cut off seven and six two make sixty nine after which namely in the midst of the seventieth week verse 27. Messias by offering up himself should cause the Sacrifice and Oblation to cease virtually they being of no force after the death of Christ though they were in use as well as other Ceremonies till the destruction of Jerusalem And though the Translatours divide the seven weeks Daniel 9.25 by a Colon from the 62. weeks in the same verse following therein the custome of the Hebrews who usually make the Accent Athnac to serve for a Colon as if the seven weeks had proper reference to Messias and the sixty two weeks to the building of the street and wall Yet besides that this sence cannot agree with the History its evident that in divers places of Scripture the Accent Athnac cannot express a Colon nay scarce so much as a Comma for proof whereof I offer these places to the judgement of the Learned Psalme 70.3 4 5. If you count the Title of the Psalme for the first verse as the Hebrews do Ps 71.14 and 79.6 and 84.4 and 86.2 and 72. last and 1 Kings 8.17 And why then should we in this place namely Dan. 9.25 take Athnac from a Colon when as the sence can as ill bear it here as in any of the fore-mentioned places and without a Colon the sence is clear and direct that from that Decree as before to Messias should be seven weeks and sixty two weeks that is just sixty nine weeks namely to that time in which he should beginne his Ministerial Office in which he continued the first half of the last or seventieth week that is three yeers and an half and then by his death took away the daily Sacrifice in its significancy and virtue confirming the Covenant the last half of that week by his Apostles and after that rejecting the Jews for contempt thereof as learned Mede observes Let us then suppose which to me seems to come neerest the Truth that Daniels weeks begin where the seventy yeers of Captivity ended That is according to my Chronologie Anno Mundi 3466. Add to this four hundred and ninety yeers contained in Daniels seventy weeks of yeers The summe is three thousand nine hundred
