Antichrist stormed, or, Mystery Babylon the great whore, and great city, proved to be the present Church of Rome wherein all objections are fully answered : to which is added, the time of the end, or a clear explanation of Scripture prophecies, with the judgment of divers learned men concerning the final ruin of the Romish Church, that it will be in this present age : together with an account of the two witnesses, who they are, with their killing, resurrection & ascension : also an examination and confutation of what Mr. Jurieu hath lately written concerning the effusion of the vials ... : likewise a brief review of D. Tho. Goodwins exposition of the 11th chapter of the Revelations, concerning the witnesses, and of that street in which they should lie slain, proving it to be meant of Great Britain : and a brief collection of divers strange prophecies, some very ancient / by Benj. Keach ... ; to which is annexed, a short treatise in two parts : 1. The calculation of Scripture numbers by Scripture only, without the help of humane history, 2. Upon the witnesses, giving light to the whole book.Antichrist stormed, or, Mystery Babylon the great whore, and great city, proved to be the present Church of Rome wherein all objections are fully answered : to which is added, the time of the end, or a clear explanation of Scripture prophecies, with the judgment of divers learned men concerning the final ruine of the Romish Church, that it will be in this present age : together with an account of the two witnesses, who they are, with their killing, resurrection & ascention : also an examination and confutation of what Mr. Jurieu hath lately written concerning the effusion of the vials ... : likewise a brief review of D.

2. The Question, Dan. 8. 13. is, How long is the Vision to give both the Sanctuary and the Host to be trodden under foot? and the answer is, to 2300 days: So that time relates to the suffering of the Church then to come.
3. Daniel chap. 8. 1. dates it in the Third of Belshazzar, in the year he saw the Vision; tho' when he saw it, he was in Shushan, a chief City in the Province of Elam, which is in Persia. Daniel was in Babylon, called to Expound the Hand-writing when the City was taken, chap. 5. 13, 30. But when Darius the Median had taken Babylon, and had so enlarged his Dominions by the Kingdom of Babylon, he, for the better Government of the whole, Dan. 6. 1, 2. set over the Affairs of the Kingdom 120 Princes, and three Presidents over them, of which he made Daniel chief; so that there is great reason why he should be in the Royal City Shushan. But this falling out in the third of Belshazzars Reign, that he lost his Kingdom, Daniel dates the Vision that year, tho' he was in Persia when he saw it. God (chap. 7. and in the first of Belshazzar's Reign) ⟨p. 211⟩showed in Vision unto Daniel, under the representation of four Beasts the four Monarchies which should rule in those parts of the World, where his Church then was, and was to be in after times, during all her suffering state, till Christs Kingdom on Earth was to come, Dan. 7. 27, 28. God having before showed by Jeremiah, chap. 25. 11. the sufferings of his Church under the first of these for 70 years; The ending of that Monarchy, and the 70 years was to be together in the self-same year, which was also to fall out in the Reign of Nebuchadnezzar's Grandson,
