§ 1 There remains yet one place more giving clear and evident Testimony unto the Truth under Demonstration, to be considered and vindicated. And this is the illustrious Prediction and Calculation of time, granted unto Daniel by the Angel Gabriel. Chap. 9.24, 25, 26, 27. Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people, and upon thy holy City, to finish the Transgression, and to make an End of Sins, and to make Reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting Righteousness, and to seal up the Vision and Prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the Commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem, unto Messiah the Prince, shall be seven Weeks, and threescore and two weeks, the Street shall be built again, and the wall in troublous times. And after threescore and two weeks, shall Messiah be cut off; but not for himself: and the people of the Prince that shall come, shall destroy the City and the Sanctuary; and the End thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the War, desolations are determined. And he shall confirm the Covenant with many for one week; and in the middest of the week, he shall cause the Sacrifice and the Oblations to cease, and for the overspreading of Abominations, he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined, shall be poured upon the desolate. So our Translation reads the words, how agreeably unto the Original, we shall consider and examine particularly in our progress.
