to_o destroy_v it_o unto_o the_o end_n thus_o it_o be_v also_o evident_o the_o sense_n of_o these_o verse_n compare_v together_o that_o by_o the_o judgement_n sit_v be_v mean_v a_o certain_a number_n

the_o year_n in_o which_o or_o near_o to_o which_o this_o great_a day_n shall_v be_v wherein_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o saint_n both_o jew_n and_o gentile_n that_o shall_v be_v convert_v shall_v be_v

to_o the_o end_n of_o these_o wonder_n to_o which_o in_o the_o 7_o verse_n a_o double_a answer_n be_v give_v which_o be_v confirm_v with_o a_o very_a solemn_a oath_n first_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v

finish_v now_o for_o the_o first_o of_o these_o answer_n because_o i_o have_v have_v occasion_n already_o to_o open_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o witness_n it_o in_o my_o book_n entitle_v the_o

time_n neither_o the_o beast_n nor_o the_o little_a horn_n prevail_v any_o more_o i_o say_v have_v speak_v of_o these_o thing_n already_o i_o shall_v refer_v the_o reader_n thereunto_o where_o they_o shall_v find_v that_o in_o 1645_o the_o beast_n cease_v to_o prevail_v against_o the_o saint_n and_o the_o time_n wherein_o he_o shall_v tread_v the_o holy_a city_n under_o foot_n than_o come_v to_o a_o end_n and_o neither_o he_o nor_o his_o associate_n shall_v ever_o prevail_v more_o and_o then_o this_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o the_o first_o answer_n to_o the_o question_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o time_n time_n and_o a_o half_a and_o then_o a_o end_n shall_v come_v in_o which_o time_n time_n and_o half_a the_o saint_n shall_v be_v keep_v under_o by_o enemy_n but_o then_o a_o end_n shall_v come_v and_o deliverance_n come_v and_o the_o second_o branch_n of_o the_o answer_n make_v this_o clear_o to_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o former_a which_o be_v in_o these_o word_n and_o when_o he_o shall_v have_v accomplish_v to_o have_v scatter_v the_o power_n of_o the_o holy_a people_n all_o these_o thing_n shall_v be_v finish_v in_o which_o first_o be_v clear_a that_o there_o

lawful_a employment_n be_v in_o which_o they_o labour_v whether_o in_o husbandry_n or_o handy-craft-employment_n stranger_n shall_v not_o drink_v the_o wine_n nor_o eat_v the_o food_n nor_o inhabit_v the_o house_n nor_o wear_v the_o apparel_n for_o which_o they_o have_v labour_v but_o they_o and_o their_o child_n shall_v comfortable_o enjoy_v the_o work_n of_o their_o hand_n so_o that_o all_o of_o they_o by_o their_o labour_n and_o employment_n not_o toilsome_a and_o burdensome_a employment_n but_o by_o their_o employment_n which_o shall_v be_v as_o recreation_n to_o they_o as_o some_o employment_n be_v to_o ingenious_a man_n now_o for_o it_o be_v irksome_a to_o they_o to_o be_v always_o idle_a i_o say_v all_o of_o they_o by_o their_o pleasant_a easy_a and_o wellregulated_n employment_n shall_v get_v a_o plentiful_a then_o plentiful_a if_o the_o diligent_a hand_n by_o the_o blessing_n of_o the_o lord_n do_v now_o make_v rich_a much_o more_o shall_v it_o then_o store_n of_o all_o those_o outward_a thing_n which_o shall_v tend_v to_o the_o comfortable_a subsistence_n of_o they_o and_o they_o with_o which_o they_o shall_v have_v no_o grief_n nor_o vexation_n at_o all_o but_o sorrow_n and_o sigh_v shall_v flee_v away_o and_o everlasting_a joy_n shall_v be_v unto_o they_o and_o so_o much_o for_o answer_v to_o this_o querie_n a_o querie_n but_o three_o another_o querie_n may_v be_v how_o the_o raise_a saint_n that_o shall_v come_v to_o reign_v with_o christ_n on_o earth_n shall_v walk_v and_o act_v here_o in_o the_o world_n a_o answer_n to_o the_o query_n to_o which_o i_o have_v no_o other_o answer_n to_o make_v but_o this_o have_v already_o show_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v raise_v spiritual_a body_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o act_v with_o respect_n to_o their_o body_n as_o those_o other_o saint_n that_o shall_v live_v and_o shall_v be_v bear_v in_o those_o time_n who_o have_v not_o lay_v down_o their_o mortal_a body_n and_o be_v raise_v again_o for_o as_o our_o saviour_n speak_v express_o that_o in_o the_o resurrection_n they_o shall_v neither_o marry_v nor_o be_v give_v in_o marriage_n but_o they_o shall_v be_v as_o the_o angel_n of_o god_n so_o it_o shall_v be_v with_o they_o so_o that_o the_o act_n and_o walking_n of_o the_o raise_a saint_n here_o on_o earth_n may_v be_v much_o like_o the_o act_n of_o the_o angel_n of_o god_n but_o to_o declare_v how_o they_o shall_v act_v more_o particular_o and_o how_o and_o in_o what_o manner_n they_o shall_v reign_v on_o earth_n with_o christ_n i_o dare_v not_o undertake_v to_o describe_v any_o further_o the_o scripture_n be_v silent_a as_o to_o particular_n and_o i_o think_v that_o enough_o for_o we_o to_o know_v in_o these_o matter_n which_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n think_v enough_o to_o declare_v of_o they_o in_o scripture_n but_o so_o much_o as_o the_o scripture_n declare_v we_o may_v not_o only_o safe_o but_o as_o our_o 29._o our_o deut._n 29._o 29._o duty_n search_v into_o 4._o rom._n 15._o 4._o therefore_o so_o much_o as_o i_o find_v the_o scripture_n declare_v thereof_o do_v i_o here_o exhibit_v and_o shall_v no_o more_o a_o query_n but_o fourthly_a some_o may_v be_v apt_a to_o inquire_v whether_o all_o creature_n shall_v be_v make_v use_n of_o by_o we_o then_o the_o sensitive_a creature_n as_o well_o as_o the_o vegetive_a this_o querie_n be_v occasion_v by_o that_o say_n of_o the_o apostle_n which_o we_o have_v rom._n 8._o 21._o which_o have_v be_v already_o mention_v where_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o in_o that_o day_n of_o the_o manifestation_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n that_o then_o the_o creature_n shall_v be_v deliver_v from_o the_o bondage_n of_o corruption_n now_o will_v some_o say_v be_v it_o not_o a_o bondage_n to_o the_o sensitive_a creature_n to_o be_v kill_v for_o the_o use_n of_o man_n and_o we_o do_v not_o find_v that_o adam_n in_o innocency_n make_v use_v of_o any_o of_o the_o sensitive_a creature_n but_o of_o herb_n and_o fruit_n of_o the_o tree_n and_o of_o the_o ground_n for_o food_n and_o be_v it_o not_o therefore_o probable_a that_o the_o saint_n shall_v do_v so_o in_o the_o new_a jerusalem-time_n a_o answer_n to_o the_o query_n to_o all_o which_o i_o answer_v first_o it_o be_v clear_a by_o what_o i_o have_v already_o say_v that_o the_o saint_n shall_v then_o be_v bless_v with_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o all_o sort_n of_o creature_n in_o abundance_n as_o with_o corn_n and_o wine_n and_o oil_n and_o all_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o earth_n so_o also_o with_o flock_n and_o herd_n and_o camel_n and_o ass_n from_o whence_o also_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o they_o shall_v make_v use_n of_o these_o sensitive_a creature_n as_o well_o as_o the_o vegetive_a for_o why_o else_o shall_v they_o be_v promise_v as_o outward_a blessing_n to_o they_o if_o they_o shall_v not_o make_v use_n of_o they_o and_o what_o shall_v they_o keep_v flock_n and_o herd_n for_o if_o they_o do_v not_o use_v they_o for_o food_n but_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v doubt_v but_o their_o flock_n and_o herd_n be_v to_o be_v for_o food_n unto_o they_o and_o so_o likewise_o be_v their_o camel_n and_o ass_n and_o other_o creature_n of_o that_o kind_n to_o be_v for_o other_o use_n to_o man_n kind_n as_o for_o labour_v in_o the_o ground_n and_z carrying_z burden_n and_o journey_v and_o all_o other_o thing_n wherein_o man_n have_v occasion_n to_o make_v use_n of_o they_o as_o appear_v isa_n 30._o 23._o thy_o ox_n likewise_o and_o the_o young_a ass_n that_o ear_n the_o ground_n shall_v eat_v clean_a provender_n etc._n etc._n and_o isa_n 66._o 20._o and_o they_o shall_v bring_v your_o brethren_n out_o of_o all_o nation_n upon_o horse_n and_o in_o chariot_n and_o in_o litter_n and_o upon_o swift_a beast_n etc._n etc._n and_o by_o this_o in_o man_n make_v use_n of_o all_o these_o creature_n it_o will_v be_v manifest_v that_o man_n be_v lord_n of_o they_o all_o in_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v all_o subject_n to_o he_o and_o be_v useful_a for_o he_o
