when this Roman Kingdom shall be under its last, (that is to say, the Antichristian) state, The King of the South shall push at him, h. e. The Saracens who came out of the Southern parts should disturb and trouble the Antichristian world; And History doth abundantly manifest the truth of that. (i)And the King of the North must come against this Roman Antichristian state, like a whirl-wind, h. e. the Turks, who arose out of ⟨p. 28⟩the North quarters, shall make dreadful destruction upon the Antichristian state; and who knoweth not that this divine prediction hath been fulfilled in those fearful devastations, which the Ottomanical family hath made upon the Roman Empire? And thus the Angel goeth on, even to the end of this Chapter, to describe this King of the North, for verse 41.42, 43, 44, 45. will not agree with Antiochus his proceedings (as some would force the words) but they do most exactly agree unto the Turkish Empire; So then the sum is, That the King of the North, i. e. the Turkish Ottomanical family, shall after the Israelites are gathered together out of the Eastern •nd Northern parts, and repossessed of the Holy Land, endeavour with great fury to destroy them (scil. at the battle of Armageddon.) But this furious Turk shall come to his end, and then will follow that glorious salvation of Israel, which my Text speaks of.
