the Evident Truth as appears in this very Case and will help us to fish out the meaning of those last words of this Prophecy But for our Sins which are many the years of that Number are over-pass'd which are over-pass'd Which words seem to be added to the Prophecy it self by some latter Rabbins for you must note That the Hierusalem-Talmud being composed above 200 years after Christ and the Babylonian-Talmud 400 years after Christ in both which this Prophecy is mentioned The Authors thereof finding the Term limited already expired added this Clause to solve the business and perswade their People that the reason why the Messias was not yet come according to this Prediction was the Multitude of their Sins which retarded his appearance and this they give out to be the Cause thereof to this day Note that Talmud signifies as much as Doctrinale The Book of Doctrine and the Books so called do contain Traditions and Observations which they pretend to have been delivered by God to Moses besides the Law written and from him to have been brought down from hand to hand amongst the Rabbins just as the Papists set up their Traditions as of equal Authority with the Scriptures Agreeable to this Cabbalistical Prophecy or Tradition some Learned men supposing that by the six days of Creation mentioned in the first of Genesis The whole Age of the World containing 6000 years was Mystically and Allegorically shadowed out To be Interpreted or Deciphered in such sort that the first days work should import or prefigure a certain Resemblance or Type of such future matters and Events as were performed in the first Thousand years of the World The second days work of such as should consequently happen in the Second Thousand years and so forth of the residue even to the Accomplishment of 6000 years At which period the Eternal Requies or Sabbath of the Lord should finally ensue and gloriously appear even as after six days Work God stayed or rested at the first and as now our weekly Sabbath which is a reverend figure of that great Everlasting Sabbath doth after every 6 days successively approach Pursuant I say hereunto they have distributed the several Millenaries as in this Table Days Millenaries Years Governours of each Millenary Monday 1. 1000. ADAM who died in the Year 930. Tuesday 2. 2000. NOAH who died in the Year 2005. Wensday 3. 3000. DAVID who died in the Year 2929. Thursday 4. 4000. CHRIST who was Born Anno Mundi 3962. Friday 5. 5000. The POPE who in this period grew to his height if we may extend it unto Hildebrand who came to the Chair about 1074. Saturday 6. 6000. The MARTYRS Millions having suffeted by Antic Sunday 7. 7000. ETERNITY If therefore this Rabbinical Reckoning be to be regarded let us see about what Year of the World we are in at this present and how much may be wanting of this Sum Total 6000. The Birth of our Lord Christ is placed By Chryteaeus In the Year of the World 3962. By Mich. Butherus In the Year of the World 3962. By Reniholdus In the Year of the World 3962. By Schubertus In the Year of the World 3962. By Cunmannus In the Year of the World 3962. By Funccius In the Year of the World 3963 By Luther In the Year of the World 3960 By Beroaldus In the Year of the World 3928 By Mereator In the Year of the World 3966 By Bucholzer In the Year of the World 3970 By Bibliander In the Year of the World 3979 By Card. Bellarmine In the Year of the World 3984 So that there is not above 22 years difference amongst them all except Beroaldus Let us therefore suppose it to be with Beucholzer Anno Mundi 3970 adding thereunto 1683 makes 5653 years from the Creation so that according to this Compute there should remain but 347 years to the final Conflagration viz. in the year of our Lord 2030. But That day and hour knoweth no man And For the Elects sake those days shall be shortned To this we think it not improper to add That Prophecy or remarkable Description of the End of the World some Thousands of years since delivered in Greek Acrostick Verses the Initial Letters making up these words JESUS CHRIST SON OF GOD THE SAVIOUR delivered by Sibylla Erythrea and recited by St. Augustine in the 4th Book and 23d Chapter of his Treatise de Civitate Dei which I shall give you in the words of Him who many years since Translated that excellent Book into English as followeth Jn Sign of Doomsday the whole Earth shall sweat Ever to Reign a King in Heavenly Seat Shall come to judge all Flesh The Faithful and Unfaithful too before this God shall stand Corporal shall he sit and thence extend His Doom in Souls The Earth shall quite lye wast Ruin'd oregrown with Thorns and men shall cast Idols away and Treasure Searching Fire Shall burn the ground and rage with fatal Ire Through Seas and Skyes and break Hells blackest Gate So shall free Light Salute the Blessed State Of Saints The Guilty lasting Flames shall burn No Act so hid but thence to Light shall turn Nor breast so close but God shall open wide Each where shall Cries be heard and noise betide Of gnashing Teeth The Sun shall from the Sky Fly forth and Stars no more move orderly Great Heav'n shall be dissolv'd The Moon depriv'd Of all her Light places at Height arriv'd Depress'd and Vallies mounted to their Seat There shall be Nought to Mortals High or great Hills shall be Level'd with the Plains The Sea Endure no Burthen and the Earth as They Shall perish cleft with Lightning every spring And River burn The fatal Trump shall bring Vnto the world from Heav'n a dismal Blast Including plagues to come for ill deeds past Old Chaos through the Scatter'd Mass appears Unto this Barr all Kings come Prisoners Rivers of flaming Brimstone drown their Tears The Learned ALSTEDIUS his SPECULUM MUNDI and CHRONOLIGY of the Prophetick Numbers 1. God alone hath reserv'd to himself the exact knowledge of future Things as the incommunicable Prerogative of his Divine Majesty Therefore 't is impossible any man though never so clear-sighted should compile an accurate Chronology for Time to come or define the punctual Moments of Futurity yet is not therefore the Explanation of Prophetick Numbers to be omitted for since God hath expressed certain Numbers in the Histories and Prophecies of his Word it would be too great both Sloth and Ingratitude not to weigh and with reverence and the fear of the Lor denquire into them 2. In observing the great Conjunctions or Revolutions of the Planets as Superstition and over-scrupulous Diligence is not to be approved so neither is Negligence or Contempt thereof to be allow'd 3. The Twelfth Chapter of Daniel ought to be our Pole-Star in explaining Prophetick Numbers for there we are led as by the hand from the building of the second Temple to its Destruction And from
the Destruction thereof which was Anno Christi 69. by a term of Days he numbers first 1290 and then 1335 that is in all with the 69 years which were elaps'd from Christ's Birth to the overthrow of the Temple 2694 years From which if we deduct the 1000 years Rev. 20.2 we shall be brought to the year of our Lord 1694. whence we may gather that the seven Vials are to be poured forth at or before that time or their significations to continue no longer 4. The most eminent Mutations from the year 1600 to 1700 may be gathered from the Planetary Conjuctions compared with the Apocalyptical Numbers which point out the years 1622 1625 1636 1642 1683 and 1694. 5. The Comparing of Histories one with another the observation of the Stars and a diligent Inspection into the manners of men do much conduce towards our predicting of the Catastrophe's of humane things 6. Those Philosophers that are more skilfull in Astronomy reckon four Monarchies not according to the Prevalency of Kingdoms but according to the four Coasts of the World The first was of the East being the Assyrians The second Southern that of the Persians and Greeks The third Western of the Romans The fourth of the North which God shall shortly set up in the Norrhern-parts by the Lion of the North to the great Amazement of those who slight the Divine Apocalypse and that Harmony which here we are pointing at 7. The 1000 years mentioned in the Twentieth Chapter of the Revelations shall begin about the year 1694 and end 2694 during which time Satan shall be bound but afterward being let loose for a small time he shall stir up Gog and Magog that is the professed Enemies of the Church against the Saints But shall be suddenly overcome and then our Lord Christ shall come in Glory to put an end to this World Annus Mundi Mirabilis Or A Prediction of the last Ages of the World Aenigmatically delivered in 12 Months representing so many notable Periods or Catastrophe's which shall certainly happen in those times Publisht many Years ago by LILLY JANVARY A shower of Blood shall rain continually for one hours space in a certain Land of Europe That Region or the People thereof shall first come to destruction FEBRVARY All Nations troubled with rumours of Wars every Region preparing Armies and Mustering Men Traffique generally prohibited or obstructed by Land and Sea each Country being inforced to live of their own stock and commodities MARCH The main Sea shall hugely swell with mighty Tempests and Winds so that the Banks being overthrown the Waves shall in many places overflow their accustom'd bounds and cause Universal Innundations One Island shall be quite overflown with the Sea where the double Cross hath Government the sins of the Prince or Rulers thereof being so extream high against the Majesty of God APRIL A terrible Sea-fight such as hath not been before occasioning the water to look more red than the Red Sea the water all turned to Blood England thou wilt have a share in this Fight God of his great goodness make thee victorious After a hard Fight thou shalt overcome MAY.
