Anil I Christ will give to my two witnesses There seems to bo two prophets, two select, eminent instruments. Some have supposed, though with out foundation, that they were Moses and Elijah, whom they re semble*in several respects, to prophesy twelve hundred and sixt> days?common days?that is, a hundred and sixty weeks. So Ion;/ will they prophesy, even while that last, and sharp treading of the holy city continues, both by word and deed, witnessing that Jesus is the Son of God. the heir of all things, and exhorting all men to repent and llee and glorify God Clothed in sackcloth. The habit of the deepest .i.ourners, out of sorrow and concern for the pjople, Verse 4. There are the two olive trees ? that is, Zorubbabel and Joshua. The two olive trees spoken of by Zaehariab, iii:b, iv: 10, were then the two chosen instruments in God's hands, oven shall these be in their season. Going themselves full of the unction of the Holy One they shall continually transmit the same to others also; and the two candlesticks burning and shining lights standing before the Lord of the earth, always waiting on God without the help of man, and asserting his right over the earth and all things therein. Verse 5. If any would kill them?As the Israelites would have done Moses and Aaron. Num xvi:41, he must then be killed by that devouring lire. Verse t>. These have power, and they use that power. All of verse 10. He shut heaven that it rained not in the days of their propnseying. Doing these twelve hundred and sixty days; and have power over the waters?In and near Jerusalem, to turn them into blood as Moses did those in Egypt, and to smite the earth with all plagues as often as they will. This is not said of Moses and Elijah or any mere man beside, and how is it possible to understand this otherwise than of two in divicinal persons? Verse 7. And when they shall have finished their testimony, Till then they-are invincible; the wild beast, herein after to be described, that ascendeth, first out of the sea, chapter xiii'l, and then out of the bottomless pit, chapter xvir8, shall mala urn r. mltl. 4 l.? I l ttui vYitu tuum. jt lis ill nis last us* cent, not out of the sea, but the bottomless pi t that the beast makes war upon the two witnesses. And even hereby is fixed the time ol treading the holy city and of the two winesses. That time ends after the ascent of the beast out the the abyss and yet before the fulfilling of the mystery; and shall conquer them, The lire no longer proceeding out of their mouth when they have finished their work; and kill them. They will be among the last martyrs, though not the last ol all. 8. Andtheir bodies shall be? perhaps hanging on the cross in the street of the great city of Jerusalem, a far greater city than any other in those parts. This is described both spiritually and historically; spiritually as it is called Sodom (Isa 1) and Egypt on account of the same abominations abounding there at the time of the witnesses as did once in Egypt and Sodoin: historically where also their Lord was crucilied. This ncssib v reters to the very ground where his cross stood. Contantine, the Great, enclosed this within the walls of the city, Perhaps on that very spot will bo exposed. \). Three days and a half?so exactly are the days set down in this prophesy. If we suppose this time began in the evening and ended in the morning and included, which is in no way impossible, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, the weekly festival of the Turkish people, the Jewish tribes and the Christian tonguos, then all those together with the heathen nations would have full leisure to ga/.e upon and rejoice over thorn. 10. And they that dwell upon the earth?Perhaps his expression may peculiarly denote earthly minded men, Shall make merry?as did the Philistinas over Sampson. And send gifts to one another?both Turks and Jews and heathens and false Christians. 11. And great fear fell upon them that saw them?and now knew tha1 God was on their side, 12. And I heard a great voicedesigned for all to hear. And they went un t.n homron " * ~ ..vutoii, ?iiiu tii*3ir enemies beheld lhetn--Who hath nut taken "notice of their rising again by which some had been convince 1 before. 12. And there was a great earthquake and the tenth part of the city fell. We have here an unanswerable proof that this city is not Babylon or Rome, but Jerusalem. For Babylon shall be wholly burnt bcforo'the fulfilling of the mystery of God. But this city is not burnt at all, on the contrary at the fulfilling ?III of that mystery, a tenth part of it is destroyed by an earthquake and ( the other nine parts converted and there were slain in the earthquake seven thousand men, being a tenth part of the inhabitants who, therefore, were seventy thousand in all; and the rest---the remaining sixty three thousand were converted; a grand step toward the fulfilling of the mystery of God. Such a conversion we no where else read of. So there shall be a larger and a holier Church at Jerusalem than ever was yet. Were terrified?blessed terror! And gave gi >ry --the character of true con version -Jor xiii 1(>, to the God of heaven. He is styled the Lord of earth, \er.ie 4, he declares his right over the earth by the two witnesses; but the God of heaven when he not only gives rain after the inost utllicting drought but a'so declares his majesty from heaven by taking his two witnesses up ;nto it When the whole multitude gives glory to the God of heaven then that treading of the holy city ceases, this is the point so 1 mg aimed at, the desired fulfillment of the mystery of God when the divine promises are so richly bestowed on ttiose who have gone through so great afflictions. A 11 this is here re latch together, that whereas the lii st and second woe went U rth in the Last, the rest of the Eastern affairs being added at once. The Western might afterward remain unbroken. It may be useful here to see how the things here spoken of and those hereafter described follow each other in their order: 1. The angel swears; the nonchrouos begins; John eats the book; the many king arise. 2. The non-ciirones and the many ] Kings oeing on mc decline that treading begins and tlio two witnesses appear. 8. The beast, after he has with the ten kings destroyed Babylon, wars with them and kills them. After three days they revive and ascend to heaven. There is a great earthquake in the holy city. Seven thousand perish and the rest are converted. The treading of the city by the Gentiles ends. I The beast and the kings of the earth and their armies are assembled to light against the gieat king. 5. Multitudes of his enemies are killed, and the beast and the false prophet cast alive into the like ol . 11re.
