former lecture, not only the %- of f ~w u
they would mcceed each other down to the end of the
world, but he had the replar order of time specified
in the duration of the little horn, tint; tinru, d a

having the len of the *tr agan beast, or daily abomination,
given to g at a& he codd not tell or understand
whereabouts in his grand number of 2300 days, the
end of the civil power of the little horn, or Papal Rome,
carried him: there was no rule given Damel yet by
which he could tell when or how long after the cmcifixion
of the Messiah before the daily sacrifice abominotion

apcriyed in his 2300 days But as be uw then were

or cutting off of the Memiah at the fultilment of his
400 yea- or 70 weeke, down to tile end of hL lalo
years, which would be the remainder of his total number
of !BOO yeare, after his 70 weeks should be NfrlledP
