| 4123 | The “cutting off of Messiah the Prince” by crucifixion inflicted by the Little Horn of the Goat; in which he was “given for a covenant of the people” (Isai. xlii. 6; xlix. 8); and believers were “caused to cease sacrificing and offering” | .... | 33 |
| The forty years ensuing, are styled in scripture πασας τας ήμερας, έως της συντελειας του αιωνος—all the days until the end of the æon—p. CH 36 Matt. xxviii. 20; very incorrectly rendered in the English version, “alway, even unto the end of the world.” These years are “the last days” of Heb. i. 2, James v. 3, and 2 Tim. iii. 1; and “the end of the world,” of Heb. ix. 26, and 1 Cor. x. 11. The Æon of which these years were the last days, was the MOSAIC COURSE constituted by the law, which had “waxed old and was ready to vanish away.”—Heb. viii. 13. These last days of the MOSAIC ÆON, or χρονοι αιωνιοι, Tit. i. 2, are familiarly styled the APOSTOLIC AGE; the events of which worthy of being remembered are recorded in all the New Testament, except the APOCALYPSE. | | |
| 4160 | “The Daily taken away, and the place of his sanctuary cast down,” by “an army being given against the Daily because of transgression.” The people of Messiah the Prince, styled in Matt. xxii. 7, “the King’s armies,” sent forth to destroy the city and sanctuary. These armies were “the host given to the Little Horn of the Goat,” or “king of fierce countenance,” by which “he cast down to the ground the truth,” in its Mosaic representation.—Dan. viii. 11, 12, 23; ix. 26. Referring to this destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple by the Roman Little Horn, Jesus said, “Of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels who are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.”—Mark xiii. 32. Forty years afterwards, however, history recorded the event as having transpired | 37 | 70a |

| 4402 | The “One Body,” apocalyptically symbolized by a Woman, pregnant during a “set time” of 280 years from Pentecost, A. D. 33. During this symbolical gestation she advances into the period of the Sixth Seal, when she is delivered of the MAN CHILD OF SIN, who is caught up by the power of the sword to the throne of deity, or supreme government of the world. He founds the despotism styled “Church and State,” which thenceforth rules all the nations of Daniel’s Fourth Beast with a rod of iron.—Apoc. xii. 5 | 215 | 313 |

| 4620 | The Daily having been abolished when the place of its sanctuary was destroyed, A. D. 70, the time is now arrived after an interval of 460 years, “to set up an abomination making desolate” the Holy Land; which is to continue 1290 years; or, “to the outpouring of that determined upon the Desolator.”—Dan. xii. 11; ix. 27. In the Justinian epoch, Noushirvan invades the land of Israel. Antioch is taken, and its inhabitants translated to the banks of the Tigris. The wars were long and desolating; and continued through the reigns of Justinian, Justin, and Tiberius. Syria was reduced, and the Persian standards advanced to the shores of the Mediterranean | 194 | 531 |

CH 37 of the witnesses before the Serpent and the God of the earth, at the end of “a time, times, and half a time,” or 1260 years.—Apoc. xi. 3; xii. 6, 14, 17; and the making war upon them by the Beast | 119 | 1572 |
