astonishment_n and_o terror_n of_o all_o their_o enemy_n who_o shall_v behold_v they_o but_o now_o a_o little_a more_o particular_o to_o clear_v the_o word_n we_o show_v before_o how_o the_o lord_n witness_n may_v be_v slay_v two_o way_n either_o corporal_o in_o separate_v their_o soul_n from_o their_o body_n or_o mystical_o and_o in_o a_o similitude_n or_o parable_n in_o a_o separation_n of_o their_o life_n from_o the_o world_n that_o be_v from_o all_o commerce_n &_o communion_n with_o the_o world_n so_o as_o their_o life_n be_v make_v no_o better_a but_o rather_o worse_a than_o death_n now_o for_o they_o that_o be_v slay_v after_o the_o first_o manner_n we_o be_v not_o to_o expect_v that_o god_n will_n according_a to_o the_o letter_n raise_v they_o up_o from_o the_o dead_a as_o here_o after_o three_o day_n and_o a_o half_a and_o for_o they_o that_o be_v slay_v after_o the_o second_o manner_n here_o specify_v though_o god_n shall_v not_o deliver_v and_o restore_v they_o from_o that_o their_o civil_a death_n though_o he_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o and_o will_v do_v it_o if_o he_o have_v so_o determine_v unto_o their_o liberty_n and_o communion_n with_o humane_a society_n as_o former_o yet_o this_o we_o be_v sure_a of_o as_o god_n word_n here_o must_v needs_o be_v true_a that_o of_o the_o very_a dust_n and_o ash_n of_o his_o dead_a witness_n under_o this_o trumpet_n in_o what_o manner_n so_o ever_o dead_a he_o will_v raise_v up_o again_o to_o life_n and_o that_o in_o the_o time_n of_o this_o trumpet_n either_o those_o very_a witness_n in_o their_o own_o person_n or_o else_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o these_o he_o will_v raise_v up_o other_o witness_n and_o such_o as_o if_o they_o be_v those_o very_a witness_n former_o slay_v thus_o we_o read_v of_o elias_n 6._o elias_n mal._n 4.5_o 6._o behold_v say_v the_o lord_n i_o will_v send_v you_o elias_n the_o prophet_n before_o the_o come_n of_o the_o great_a and_o dreadful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o he_o shall_v turn_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n to_o the_o child_n etc._n etc._n now_o this_o elias_n be_v mean_v of_o john_n the_o baptist_n that_o morning_n star_n that_o usher_v in_o

he_o in_o the_o spirit_n and_o power_n of_o elias_n to_o turn_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n to_o the_o child_n etc._n etc._n whence_o it_o be_v plain_a and_o clear_a that_o john_n the_o baptist_n be_v that_o elias_n there_o prophesy_v of_o and_o he_o be_v call_v elias_n because_o he_o come_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o power_n of_o elias_n and_o therefore_o christ_n faith_n to_o his_o

understand_v that_o he_o speak_v unto_o they_o of_o john_n the_o baptist_n and_o matth._n 11.14_o speak_v of_o john_n baptist_n he_o say_v this_o be_v elias_n which_o be_v to_o come_v thus_o we_o see_v how_o the_o prophet_n elias_n be_v dead_a and_o bury_v many_o hundred_o year_n before_o yet_o be_v as_o it_o be_v raise_v up_o from_o the_o dead_a to_o be_v christ_n harbinger_n but_o how_o not_o in_o his_o person_n but_o in_o his_o spirit_n and_o power_n so_o as_o john_n baptist_n come_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o power_n of_o elias_n be_v call_v elias_n and_o in_o he_o the_o prophecy_n be_v fulfil_v that_o elias_n shall_v come_v and_o now_o in_o john_n he_o be_v already_o come_v now_o according_a to_o this_o sense_n we_o may_v safe_o interpret_v this_o prophecy_n also_o in_o this_o place_n after_o three_o day_n and_o a_o half_a the_o spirit_n of_o life_n from_o god_n shall_v enter_v into_o they_o to_o wit_n into_o the_o two_o slay_a witness_n and_o they_o shall_v stand_v upon_o

though_o not_o in_o their_o own_o person_n yet_o in_o other_o witness_n that_o shall_v succeed_v they_o who_o shall_v be_v endue_v with_o the_o same_o spirit_n and_o power_n which_o they_o have_v be_v endue_v with_o all_o and_o this_o be_v that_o spirit_n of_o life_n from_o god_n which_o enter_v into_o his_o servant_n raise_v they_o up_o to_o be_v lively_a witness_n of_o his_o truth_n full_a of_o vigour_n strength_n courage_n zeal_n constancy_n 12.11_o constancy_n revel_v 12.11_o not_o love_v their_o life_n unto_o the_o death_n but_o as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o paul_n and_o barnabas_n such_o

have_v now_o enter_v into_o other_o witness_n succeed_v they_o they_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n may_v be_v call_v those_o very_a witness_n as_o be_v now_o by_o the_o almighty_a power_n of_o god_n raise_v from_o the_o dead_a as_o john_n the_o baptist_n be_v call_v that_o elias_n because_o he_o come_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o power_n of_o elias_n and_o in_o this_o respect_n see_v the_o raise_n and_o restore_v of_o these_o two_o witness_n be_v perhaps_o not_o personal_a but_o spiritual_a it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o we_o tie_v or_o restrain_v the_o succeed_a witness_n strict_o to_o the_o number_n of_o two_o only_a for_o as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o old_a sanguis_fw-la martyrum_fw-la semen_fw-mi ecclesiae_fw-la the_o blood_n of_o the_o martyr_n be_v the_o seed_n of_o the_o church_n
