3. This mystery then must be that of the calling and in-coming of the Jews, with the fullness of the Gentiles, for I find no other mystery. And this is called (b)a mystery by the Apostle, and such a one also as hath been abundantly declared to God's servants the Prophets, as you will see in the ensuing Treatise. And this interpretation of the mystery of God to be finished under ⟨image ?⟩the seventh Trumpet, answereth the scope of the Angel who spake of it to John. For the appearing of the Angel in that form, and the little book in his hand, and his taking that solemn Oath, are all consolatory to the Church greatly suffering under Antichrist during the sounding of the sixth Trumpet; and what can be more comfortable, than to hear that these sufferings of the Church are not long to continue, but the calling of the Jews, and coming in of the fullness of the Gentiles, the spreading of the everlasting Gospel, and enlarging the kingdom of Christ (so much narrowed by the power of Turk and Pope under the sixth Trumpet) and the final confusion both of Turk, and man of sin, are drawing on, and to be accomplished under the seventh Trumpet? So that this place in the Revelations of John, seemeth clearly to lead us to the calling of the Jews.
