near_o the_o midst_n of_o this_o last_o week_n about_o the_o 31._o year_n of_o his_o age_n now_o to_o come_v to_o the_o year_n before_o the_o birth_n of_o christ_n we_o must_v take_v off_o 35._o

63._o year_n interlace_v between_o the_o 7._o week_n and_o 62._o week_n the_o sum_n of_o year_n then_o from_o the_o first_o year_n of_o cyrus_n or_o from_o the_o captivity_n to_o christ_n will_v come_v just_o to_o 518_o year_n as_o i_o set_v down_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o this_o reckon_n and_o add_v these_o 518._o year_n to_o 3430._o year_n which_o be_v our_o ground_n and_o second_v stay_v of_o time_n the_o whole_a sum_n of_o year_n from_o the_o creation_n to_o the_o birth_n of_o christ_n be_v 3948._o year_n now_o we_o have_v further_a to_o verify_v this_o forward_o reckon_v from_o
