An APPENDIX TO A DISCOURSE OF INDICTIONS And to a Newly Publish'd Discourse OF THE JUBILEE OF THE Kingdom of Christ Approaching at the next following Vernal Equinox in our Vulgar Account 1701. Proposed to the most Learned in Scripture History Chronology or Arithmetick and Accountancy for deep Consideration THE Prophetick Line of Time from the Death of Solomon to the glorious Kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ which I have for several Years last past established upon the greatest Reasons of Scripture Prophecy and its Chronology with the fairest Agreement of Universal History and Chronology is now confirm'd to me by the Indictional Frame or Fifteens of Years of which it is composed that doth demonstrate it to be one and the same entire Line th● given at several Times in several Cantons or Parts and that it was so constituted by the Divine Spirit that we might know it to be one Line And that by the Laws of Indiction we may know where the Distributions Begin and End That even as by the Historical and Prophetical Assignations of them we have one view of them so by Indictions we may have even Arithmetical Demonstration of their Bounds The Line it self I present in the very Letter of Scripture in plain open view   Years Ezekiel's Visional bearing the Iniquity Ezek. 4. 4. 5 of the House of Israel on his left side a Day for a Year 390 Ezekiel's Turning on his Right-side immediately after the 390 Days accomplished and bearing the Iniquity of the House of Judah forty Days v. 6. 8. without turning from one side to another to confuse one time with another and Bands Layd on him to that purpose by God 40 The long Line beginning with the Persian Monarchy given therefore visionally by the River Ulai in the Palace of Shushan in the Province of Elam All Persian of 2300 Evs-morns according to the Prophetick Standard a Day for a Year During the time of the Sanctuary Trodden under Foot until the cleansing or Justification of it 2300 The distribution of this long Line of 2300 Evs Morns into its several Parts 1. The Time supposed of the Word 's going forth to Restore Judah and Jerusalem after the Seventy years of the Babylonish Captivity and in all appearance ending with the Forty Years of bearing Judah's Sin and beginning just before the Seventy Weeks which commence from the time of the Word 's going forth which took up a valuable Space Dan. 9. 25. For it was by the Commandment and according to the Decree of Cyrus Darius Artaxerxes and whose Decrees are written by Ezra Ezr. 6. 14. This space is by great Scripture and Chronologick Reasons and now by Indictions shall be demonstrated to be 75 The Time of the seventy Weeks Forty nine of which join with the time of the Word 's going forth to restore and make an 124 Years with the Building the Wall by Artaxerxes His Letter on that Account Nehem. 2. c. of which Nehemiah gives the History Sixty two of the Weeks run to the publick Appearance of the Messiah Dan. 9. During his more retir'd Life 'till his appearance as a Prince and Leader at the one Week of his Publick Ministry v. 25. Confirming the Covenant and sealing it by his Death v. 27. in the half or middle of the Week then for the other half Week committing it to his Apostles with the Spirit poured out Revel 6. 1. Represented by Christ's opening the First Seal going out Conquering and to Conquer According to the Prophets Standard 490 From the End of the Weeks to the Beginning of the little Horns Dan. 7. 25. Time Times and half Time made out by great Scriptural and Historical Arguments and Indictionally demonstrated The Time of the Seals Open'd The 400 The Time of the Time Times and half Time of the little Horns c. 12.7 wearing scattering the Saints of the most High and of the Church in the Wilderness Rev. 11. 3. c. 12. 6 14. the Witnesses Prophecy in Sackcloth with which concur the Gentiles Rev. 11. 1. c. 13. 5. and the Beasts 42 Moons 1260 The Additional time of Thirty or two Indictions added to the Times and half of 1260 making 1290 under the Character of Time From the taking away the daly Sacrifice 30 The Addition of Forty Five or Three Indictions to 1290 making 1335 reaches to the Blessed state of the Kingdom of the Resurrection when Daniel shall stand in his Lot of the New Jerusalem which cannot be without the Resurrection 45 Now as it is most certain by Account that these Sums laid together make 2730   Indict So it is most certain even to Arithmetick Demonstration they arise by Indictions or Fifteens 182 That the Divine Spirit hath put an Honour upon the Number Fifteen in chusing it for the Day of the so solemn Feast of Tabernacles which he made a great Type of his Kingdom as appears by the most awful reading the Law on an indicted Time in it in the Year of Release Deut. 31. 10. Adorning it with Paradisiac Appearance in the most goodly Boughs and by the Prophetick Representation of the state of the Kingdom of Christ under the keeping that Feast Zech. 14. 16. and the Misery of those who are shut for ever out of that Kingdom in their not keeping it and the peculiar mention of it in the Vision of Ezekiel's glorious Temple Ezek. 45. 25. But that he hath chosen it in this Line of Time is the Business now in hand and to be made out beyond Contradiction for the whole Twenty seven hundred thirty is all composed of Fifteens Some peculiar Parts of it are given in such Numbers as Fall into Fifteens of themselves as 390 1260 1290 1335 each of which deserve great Consideration The Three hundred Ninety as the First Part of the Line of Time hath this peculiar Remark That as it is the First Part so it gives Measure and Frame to the whole For as it is perfectly compos'd of Indictions So it is most observable Three Hundred Ninety multiplyed by the Number Seven of which Scripture makes so great Use in all Things and in all Prophecy both on Accounts of Mercy of Grace and of punishment for Iniquity Levit. 26. I say the First Three Hundred Ninety multiplied by Seven makes up the whole Prophetical Line of Twenty seven Hundred Thirty and so casts all into Indictions or Fifteens as any one moderately skill'd in Accountancy will easily find In the Thirteen hundred thirty five the End and shutting up of the whole Line in the Fulness of all Times There is as I may humbly express a Care and Diligence and even an Industry of the Divine Spirit to compose it into Indictions or Fifteens For in the twelve hundred and sixty as the whole is all Indiction so each Division is according to indicted Time Time or one Time 36● Years Two Times or one Time doubl'd 720 Years One time halv'd or 180 Y. each is perfect Indictional and so the Hebrew first gave it its Style
