A75736	The work of the age: or, the sealed prophecies of Daniel opened and applied. VVherein is plainly proved that all the governments in the world, except the government of Christ, are but images, or parts of Nebuchadnezzars image, and shall be suddenly broken in pieces by the little stone cut out of the mountain without hand: together with the means how Christ will effect all this. Shewing also that image-government, and image-worship have always been companions. Explaining likewise Daniels mystical numbers, and discovering some misprisions about the little horn, both in the translation and application of the same. Amending sundry places in our common translation, and clearing some chronological points from the common errours. / By William Aspinwall.

darius_n &_o it_o will_v make_v up_o the_o just_a number_n of_o 49_o year_n as_o the_o angel_n here_o speak_v from_o which_o time_n count_v 62_o year_n until_o christ_n be_v 25_o year_n of_o age_n according_a to_o the_o law_n num._n 4._o 3._o from_o which_o time_n christ_n begin_v to_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n from_o one_o week_n as_o the_o angel_n speak_v and_o to_o prepare_v for_o the_o full_a execution_n of_o his_o office_n in_o his_o 30_o year_n current_n &_o then_o in_o half_a of_o that_o week_n to_o wit_n the_o latter_a half_n he_o make_v the_o sacrifice_n and_o oblation_n to_o cease_v offer_v up_o himself_o once_o for_o all_o in_o the_o very_o close_o of_o the_o same_o and_o thus_o you_o have_v the_o total_a sum_n and_o the_o integrall_a part_n to_o agree_v and_o constitute_v the_o just_a number_n of_o 490_o year_n from_o the_o word_n that_o go_v forth_o from_o cyru_n unto_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n now_o the_o close_a or_o end_n of_o daniel_n account_n be_v twice_o express_v week_n the_o end_n of_o daniel_n week_n first_o when_o the_o angel_n tell_v daniel_n in_o one_o gross_a sum_n that_o seventy_o week_n be_v determine_v vers_fw-la 24._o to_o end_v at_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n as_o all_o these_o expression_n do_v full_o import_v to_o restrain_v transgression_n to_o seal_v up_o sin_n to_o make_v reconciliation_n for_o iniquity_n and_o

be_v the_o latter_a half_n and_o so_o the_o account_n of_o the_o particular_n do_v agree_v with_o the_o total_a sum_n of_o seventy_o week_n some_o will_v have_v it_o understand_v of_o the_o former_a half_n of_o the_o week_n but_o that_o will_v not_o agree_v with_o the_o sum_n total_a nor_o can_v it_o stand_v with_o truth_n for_o in_o 69_o week_n &_o a_o half_a be_v not_o 70_o week_n and_o it_o have_v be_v as_o easy_a in_o that_o language_n to_o have_v say_v 69_o week_n and_o a_o half_a as_o to_o say_v in_o half_a of_o that_o week_n wherefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o those_o 70_o week_n of_o daniel_n be_v terminate_v in_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o neither_o before_o nor_o after_o thus_o much_o i_o think_v necessary_a to_o speak_v of_o this_o nine_o chapter_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o various_a interpretation_n which_o man_n do_v give_v of_o the_o chronological_a part_n thereof_o which_o open_v a_o door_n to_o some_o to_o question_v the_o doctrinal_a part_n not_o only_o of_o
