3. The truth of this is likewise manifest, because the fifth vial shaketh Rome in pieces; whereas the Jews are not converted till the sixth vial; yea, in the sixth vial their salvation is but begun, by clearing all obstacles out of the way, Rev. 16.10. The fifth Angel poured his vial upon the seat (*)or throne) of the beast. Now what is the seat of the beast, but Rome?
