forty_o year_n after_o the_o build_n of_o the_o temple_n but_o this_o gentleman_n make_v more_o bold_a with_o the_o jewish_a writer_n when_o he_o make_v they_o to_o say_v of_o jaddus_n the_o high_a priest_n and_o all_o the_o elder_n of_o israel_n that_o they_o make_v a_o covenant_n with_o alexander_n though_o darius_n be_v then_o live_v for_o which_o he_o cite_v ganz_n p._n 59_o but_o these_o be_v not_o ganz_n his_o word_n he_o only_o say_v that_o alexander_n make_v a_o covenant_n with_o jaddus_n who_o he_o call_v simeon_n the_o just_a and_o i_o believe_v you_o will_v be_v strange_o surprise_v when_o i_o tell_v you_o from_o r._n abraham_n f._n david_n his_o cabala_n what_o that_o covenant_n be_v he_o covenant_v say_v he_o with_o the_o high_a priest_n that_o every_o child_n that_o be_v bear_v to_o any_o of_o the_o priest_n that_o year_n shall_v be_v call_v alexander_n after_o his_o name_n and_o that_o they_o shall_v begin_v their_o aera_fw-la contractuum_fw-la from_o he_o josephus_n l._n 11._o c._n 5_o and_o 8._o acquaint_v we_o that_o both_o nehemiah_n and_o sanballat_n live_v to_o old_a age_n and_o of_o nehemiah_n this_o gentleman_n say_v pag._n 8._o no_o doubt_v he_o live_v to_o a_o very_a great_a age_n for_o he_o be_v cupbearer_n to_o king_n artaxerxes_n in_o the_o 20_o year_n of_o his_o reign_n we_o may_v suppose_v he_o to_o have_v be_v then_o about_o 25_o year_n of_o age_n after_o that_o he_o live_v to_o see_v the_o high_a priesthood_n pass_v from_o father_n to_o son_n for_o four_o generation_n and_o he_o see_v a_o five_o come_v in_o view_n namely_o jaddua_n who_o we_o suppose_v to_o have_v be_v then_o about_o 30_o year_n old_a all_o this_o may_v very_o well_o be_v if_o nehemiah_n be_v bear_v 470_o year_n before_o christ_n and_o write_v in_o the_o year_n 347_o before_o christ_n than_o he_o be_v about_o 104_o year_n o●d_n there_o be_v this_o gentleman_n be_v own_o word_n out_o of_o which_o we_o must_v pick_v his_o sense_n as_o well_o as_o we_o can_v and_o when_o we_o have_v do_v our_o best_a i_o doubt_v we_o shall_v scarce_o understand_v either_o how_o the_o thing_n cohere_v or_o how_o they_o prove_v that_o nehemiah_n live_v to_o a_o very_a great_a age_n 1._o i_o can_v see_v the_o coherence_n particular_o of_o that_o last_o passage_n if_o nehemiah_n be_v bear_v 470_o year_n before_o christ_n and_o write_v in_o the_o 347_o the_o year_n before_o christ_n than_o he_o be_v about_o 104_o year_n old_a for_o from_o the_o year_n 470_o before_o christ_n to_o the_o year_n 347_o before_o he_o be_v 123_o year_n so_o that_o this_o gentleman_n have_v express_v himself_o more_o coherent_o if_o he_o have_v say_v then_o he_o be_v about_o 124_o year_n old_a some_o perhaps_o will_v say_v that_o 347_o be_v the_o printer_n mistake_n for_o 374_o for_o this_o gentleman_n say_v pag_n 1._o that_o nehemiah_n write_v his_o book_n anno_fw-la 374_o before_o christ._n well_o we_o now_o then_o suppose_v nehemiah_n to_o have_v live_v from_o the_o year_n 470_o before_o christ_n to_o the_o year_n 374_o but_o then_o he_o will_v not_o have_v be_v about_o 104_o year_n old_a but_o about_o 96_o so_o that_o i_o despair_v still_o of_o make_v thing_n cohere_v but_o then_o 2._o i_o can_v see_v how_o all_o together_o prove_v that_o nehemiah_n live_v to_o a_o very_a great_a age_n for_o 1._o they_o be_v only_a supposition_n which_o make_v up_o a_o great_a part_n of_o what_o be_v say_v and_o those_o can_v prove_v nothing_o 2._o there_o be_v nothing_o certain_a but_o that_o after_o nehemiah_n come_v from_o susa_n to_o jerusalem_n he_o live_v to_o see_v the_o high_a priesthood_n pass_v from_o father_n to_o son_n for_o some_o generation_n but_o unless_o we_o be_v certain_a for_o how_o many_o generation_n whether_o four_o or_o three_o or_o only_o two_o as_o also_o how_o many_o year_n every_o person_n enjoy_v the_o high-priest_n function_n we_o can_v prove_v from_o thence_o to_o what_o age_n nehemiah_n live_v 3._o when_o this_o gentleman_n say_v that_o nehemiah_n see_v the_o priesthood_n pass_v from_o father_n to_o son_n for_o four_o generation_n his_o meaning_n be_v that_o it_o pass_v from_o joiakim_n to_o eliashib_n from_o eliashib_n to_o joiada_n from_o joiada_n to_o johanan_n and_o withal_o he_o begin_v his_o computation_n in_o the_o last_o year_n of_o joiakim_n and_o end_v it_o in_o the_o first_o of_o johanan_n so_o that_o the_o time_n of_o eliashib_n and_o joiada_n enjoy_v the_o priesthood_n be_v add_v to_o the_o 25_o year_n which_o he_o be_v suppose_v to_o have_v live_v when_o he_o come_v from_o susa_n to_o jerusalem_n be_v in_o effect_n all_o the_o time_n we_o have_v to_o make_v up_o nehemiah_n age_n according_a to_o this_o gentleman_n he_o trouble_v himself_o much_o about_o the_o time_n of_o nehemiah_n write_v his_o book_n 1._o he_o affirm_v p._n 6._o that_o it_o be_v write_v after_o the_o death_n of_o longimanus_fw-la and_o in_o or_o after_o the_o time_n of_o his_o successor_n darius_n this_o say_v he_o be_v certain_a for_o in_o his_o book_n he_o mention_n the_o reign_n of_o darius_n the_o persian_a but_o why_o may_v we_o not_o think_v notwithstanding_o this_o that_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o book_n be_v write_v before_o the_o death_n of_o longimanus_fw-la and_o that_o this_o touch_v the_o reign_n of_o darius_n and_o a_o few_o other_o passage_n may_v be_v insert_v by_o nehemiah_n or_o some_o other_o afterward_o 2._o he_o insist_o upon_o it_o pag._n 7._o that_o nehemiah_n write_v when_o the_o reign_n of_o darius_n be_v expire_v the_o hebrew_a word_n say_v he_o show_v it_o for_o there_o i.e._n neh._n 12_o 22._o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o head_n of_o the_o levite_n and_o also_o the_o priest_n be_v record_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d over_o or_o throughout_o the_o reign_n of_o darius_n our_o translation_n have_v to_o the_o reign_n of_o darius_n other_o translation_n in_o the_o reign_n etc._n etc._n but_o these_o not_o favour_v he_o must_v without_o example_n or_o warrant_n to_o serve_v his_o hypothesis_n translate_v over_o or_o throughout_o the_o reign_n of_o darius_n there_o be_v no_o question_n but_o that_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d sometime_o signify_v over_o as_o that_o be_v the_o same_o with_o above_o but_o he_o shall_v have_v allege_v some_o other_o text_n or_o text_n of_o scripture_n in_o which_o it_o signify_v over_o in_o the_o sense_n of_o he_o throughout_o or_o some_o authority_n for_o it_o and_o when_o he_o do_v this_o he_o do_v something_o but_o let_v the_o word_n signify_v what_o they_o will_v they_o must_v be_v understand_v as_o he_o will_v have_v they_o which_o appear_v say_v he_o by_o what_o follow_v in_o the_o next_o verse_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o head_n of_o the_o levite_n be_v record_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o chronicle_n till_o the_o day_n of_o johanan_n i.e._n till_o he_o come_v to_o be_v highpriest_n yea_o rather_o the_o contrary_n appear_v from_o thence_o if_o we_o will_v acquiesce_v in_o archbishop_n vsher_n judgement_n for_o he_o in_o his_o annal_n a._n m._n 3589._o make_v johanan_n to_o have_v be_v high_a priest_n in_o the_o reign_n of_o darius_n i.e._n nothus_fw-la and_o if_o he_o be_v so_o than_o these_o word_n till_o the_o day_n of_o johanan_n neh._n 12._o 23._o can_v prove_v that_o the_o meaning_n must_v be_v throughout_o the_o reign_n of_o darius_n v._o 22._o but_o if_o any_o thing_n the_o contrary_a here_o and_o elsewhere_o i_o press_v this_o gentleman_n with_o archbishop_n vsher_n authority_n because_o he_o allege_v he_o so_o oft_o in_o his_o letter_n and_o declare_v his_o great_a esteem_n of_o his_o judgement_n the_o most_o learned_a primate_n be_v as_o well_o a_o great_a chronologer_n as_o a_o good_a textuary_n so_o pag._n 7._o and_o pag_n 9_o when_o he_o have_v tell_v how_o he_o suppose_v jaddus_n bear_v at_o such_o a_o time_n in_o compliance_n with_o the_o most_o learned_a primate_n he_o add_v these_o word_n i_o attribute_v very_o much_o to_o his_o judgement_n in_o these_o matter_n 3._o this_o gentleman_n make_v nehemiah_n to_o have_v write_v his_o book_n when_o johanan_n come_v to_o be_v highpriest_n see_v pag._n 7._o also_o 9_o and_o 10._o but_o if_o you_o demand_v his_o proof_n of_o this_o he_o only_o say_v pag._n 9_o that_o he_o have_v very_o good_a ground_n for_o it_o but_o he_o be_v not_o so_o kind_a as_o to_o tell_v what_o it_o be_v so_o that_o by_o all_o that_o he_o have_v say_v concern_v nehemiah_n age_n and_o write_v his_o book_n he_o have_v only_o demonstrate_v that_o it_o can_v be_v determine_v particular_o to_o
