The Answer unto this Particular is Mysteriously given in the 8, & 9. verses of this Chapter, And their dead Bodies shall lie in the street of the great City, &c.
The great City is that mentioned, chap. 17.8. Which reigneth over the Kings of the Earth, to wit, the WOMAN that sits upon a Scarlet-coloured BEAST, chap. 17.3. which is the great WHORE, chap. 17.1. whose Name is Mystery BABYLON, the Mother of HARLOTS, chap. 17.5. viz. the whole Antichristian Kingdom of the Beast, all Mystical Babylon.
The Street of the great City is some noted Street, (as a Market-Street) or some ⟨p. 23⟩eminent Street, (as Cheap-side) or some open Street or place (as Smithfield) within or without the great City, under the Dominion and Government thereof.
By this Street we are to understand some •minent Part of Mystical Babylon, and Kingdom of the Beast, viz. some of the ten Kingdoms which appertain unto the Dominion of the Beast, and not his whole Kingdom, or the whole City: It is not said in the Streets of the great City, but in the Street, to wit, the most eminent Kingdom for the Testimony of Jesus Christ, even that Nation where the Witnesses have most eminently born their Testimony against Antichrist.
