the Kings of the South are called the Kings of Egypt proceeding from Ptolomeus the sonne of Lagus Now there resteth is remaining one seauen which is the last the seuentith wherof also sme thing must be said seeing it comprehendeth the Ministerie of Christ the Lord his death in which is the fulnes of times Of the which it is thus prophecied in the 9. of Daniel the 27. ver But he shall confirme the couenant for many in one seuen in the half of the last seuen shall cease offring sacrifice and in the Tēple shalbe abhomination of desolation and desolation shall continue vntill a consummation and ende Which words in part are rather taken out of some Greeke Interpreter than out of the Hebrue text and whether they be taken out of the seuentie Interpreters the proper interpretation of this verse in the Greeke Copies printed at Strausburge in the yeare of our Lord 1526. maketh somewhat doubtfull If anie enquire after the Hebrue and desireth to know let them heare and vnderstand that the words may be thus translated And one seauen shall confirme the couenaunt for manie and the halfe of that seuen shall cause to cease Sacrifice and Offering and euerie one shall bee amazed for the extremitie of abhomination desolation shall drop vpon the astonished euen vnto a certaine destruction But in this place wee must chieflie looke vnto the Hebrue because the Latine Greek doth expound and signifie in the halfe of that last seauen the sacrifices shall cease Which was not so neither doo the Hebrew wordes teach that which say The halfe of that last seuen will adde an ende to the sacrifice and ceremonies of the lawe But the halfe of that seauen signifieth those things which are done in the last seauen of all which brought an ende to the ceremoniall lawe of Moses the eternall couenaunt of God concerning our saluation by Christ the Lord being declared stable and firme But afterwards there was nothing to be lookt for to the Citie Ierusalem to the vnbeleeuers who contemned God calling them but a beadroule of miseries which should destroy Ierusalem enwrap the Iewish people rebellious and disobedient to God in infinite calamities But those things brought an ende to the ceremonies of the lawe which were done in the halfe of the last seauen which teach that Iesus Christ was made manifest Iohn Baptist being the publisher foremessenger of so great a good To whom God spake whilest hee liued in the desert giuing him commandements which he should put in practise then when it was the 15. yeare of Tiberius Caesars Empire as it is written in the third of Luke where these things are thus set downe But in the 15. yeare of the reigne of Tiberius Caesar Pontius Pilate being Lieutenant of Iudea and Herode Tetrarch of Galilee and his brother Philip Tetrarch of Iturea and of the Region of Traconitis and Lysama Tetrarch of Abilena Ananias and Caiphas beeing the high Sacrificers the word of the Lord came vnto Iohn the sonne of Zacharie being in the wildernesse And he came into all the countrey of Iordan preaching the baptisme of repentance for remission of sinnes It appeareth therefore out of these words of the Euangelist Luke that after his commission commaundement giuen from heauen Iohn came into all the Region nere Iordan preaching the baptisme of repentance for remission of sinnes who whilest he baptised the people washeth Christ the Lord beginning to be thirtie yeare olde with the washing of baptisme as it is taught in the same third chapter of Luke the Euangelist in these words And it came to passe when all the people was baptized and Iesus had been baptized and was praying the heauen opened And the holy Spirit descended in a corporall forme as a Doue vpon him and a voice came from heauen Thou art my sonne in thee I am well pleased And Iesus began to be as it were thirtie yeare olde Now this obseruation of the age of the Lord and of the Romane Emperour Tiberius is not lightlie to bee passed ouer because from thence is the certaine knowledge of the death of the Lord and his age as also of the ende of the seuentie seuens of Daniel Now wee haue alreadie shewed the death of our Lord Iesus Christ to be the limit and ende of Daniels seauentie seauens which wee can easelie gather into what instance of time they fall out And we know from the historie of the Gospel that Christ the Lord was crucified that day in the which the Passeouer was to be offered by euerie familie which was the fourteenth day of the first moneth that is March as the account of the olde yeare was vsuallie taken as before hath been declared in the account of moneths and yeares Therefore the 14. day of the moneth of March which to the Hebrues is Nisan and is the first moneth of the ciuile yeare amongst the people of God is the ende and conclusion of the seauentie seauens because then the Lord is dead whom Daniels Prophecie witnesseh in the time of the halfe last seauen to haue performed amongst men the dutie of a true teacher and sauiour Also the historie of the gospel which remembreth foure feasts of Easter after his baptisme as Andreas Osiander hath learnedly gathered and expounded in his edition of the Harmonie of the gospell frō whence is gathered both the certaine age of Christ while he liued vppon earth and the certaine time of his death For because Christ the Lord was baptised the 15. yeare of Tiberius Caesar was then baptised when he began to bee thirtie yeares of age as it is expounded in Luke the Euangelist the 3. chapter trulie he must suffer death for vs on the crosse the eighteenth yere of Tiberius then when he was three and thirtie yeares olde that is when he had fullie accomplished thirtie two yeares and a halfe for the halfe of the last seauen cōteineth three yeares and a halfe in which is anoynted the Holie of Holiest Christ Iesus and declared King of his heauenlie Father vpon Mount Sion by whom our sinnes were thē to be purged Moreouer the sacrifices of the Lawe were to be taken away by the death of the immaculate Lambe that is the Lord lesus Christ after hee had on earth finished the dutie of a true teacher and prophet But he began to teach and to manifest himselfe to be the true Messias or Christ when he began his 30. yeare but in that function he spent three yere and a halfe From whence the thirtieth yeare of his age is the first of his Ministerie then the 31. the second and the 32. the third in the which Christ the Lord was the Minister of circumcision From whence the thirtie three yeare of his age in the midst where of he fullie finished his ministerie shalbe said the halfe yeare of the last half seauen in the which were fulfilled all the prophecies of the Prophetes concerning our
