he_o that_o sit_v in_o the_o heaven_n shall_v laugh_v say_v the_o psalmist_n 6._o psalmist_n vers_fw-la 4_o 5_o 6._o the_o lord_n shall_v have_v they_o in_o derision_n yea_o he_o shall_v speak_v unto_o they_o in_o his_o wrath_n and_o vex_v they_o in_o his_o sore_a displeasure_n when_o they_o shall_v so_o do_v and_o notwithstanding_o he_o will_v set_v his_o king_n upon_o his_o holy_a hill_n of_o zion_n and_o shall_v give_v he_o the_o heathen_a for_o his_o inheritance_n and_o the_o uttermost_a part_n of_o the_o earth_n for_o his_o possession_n some_o of_o which_o be_v pertinacious_a and_o obstinate_a opposer_n he_o shall_v break_v with_o a_o rod_n of_o iron_n and_o dash_v they_o in_o piece_n like_o a_o potter_n vessel_n and_o therefore_o the_o spirit_n exhort_v all_o those_o king_n

that_o day_n of_o the_o king_n the_o lord_n christ_n his_o exaltation_n he_o add_v bless_a be_v all_o they_o that_o wait_v for_o he_o thus_o this_o scripture_n full_o concurre_v with_o the_o present_a text_n in_o assert_v this_o thing_n that_o all_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n shall_v be_v subject_v to_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o as_o it_o be_v say_v here_o that_o all_o dominion_n or_o as_o the_o word_n may_v be_v more_o right_o render_v all_o ruler_n must_v serve_v and_o obey_v he_o so_o the_o same_o be_v clear_o declare_v in_o this_o prophecy_n of_o the_o psalmist_n also_o the_o next_o scripture_n which_o i_o shall_v quote_v for_o the_o clear_n of_o this_o point_n shall_v be_v that_o in_o the_o 110_o psalm_n which_o be_v also_o very_o full_a to_o this_o purpose_n for_o there_o the_o psalmist_n speak_v of_o a_o time_n when_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n there_o style_v a_o priest_n for_o ever_o after_o the_o order_n of_o melchizedeck_v shall_v be_v set_v up_o and_o

people_n shall_v be_v willing_a in_o that_o day_n of_o his_o power_n so_o that_o hence_o it_o be_v clear_a also_o that_o there_o be_v a_o time_n come_v when_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v have_v the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n subject_v to_o he_o and_o because_o it_o be_v and_o will_v be_v so_o that_o when_o he_o come_v thus_o to_o rule_v and_o reign_v that_o many_o people_n but_o especial_o

thousand_o time_n ten_o thousand_o stand_v before_o he_o the_o judgement_n be_v set_v and_o the_o book_n be_v open_v and_o because_o of_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o great_a word_n which_o the_o horn_n speak_v the_o beast_n be_v slay_v here_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o beast_n or_o horn_n be_v slay_v by_o some_o that_o do_v sit_v in_o judgement_n before_o who_o the_o book_n of_o his_o evil_a

sit_v in_o judgement_n that_o they_o be_v not_o angel_n but_o saint_n the_o saint_n of_o the_o most_o high_a for_o there_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o horn_n make_v war_n with_o the_o saint_n and_o prevail_v against_o they_o until_o the_o ancient_n of_o day_n come_v and_o judgement_n be_v give_v to_o the_o saint_n of_o the_o most_o high_a and_o then_o be_v his_o power_n take_v off_o for_o then_o the_o time_n come_v that_o the_o saint_n possess_v the_o kingdom_n and_o that_o those_o saint_n that_o have_v judgement_n give_v to_o they_o and_o that_o be_v say_v to_o sit_v in_o judgement_n that_o they_o be_v the_o instrument_n by_o who_o the_o beast_n be_v to_o be_v judge_v and_o slay_v be_v further_a clear_a in_o this_o 26_o verse_n where_o it_o have_v be_v declare_v in_o the_o former_a verse_n how_o evil_o the_o horn_n shall_v deal_v with_o the_o saint_n it_o be_v say_v but_o the_o judgement_n shall_v sit_v and_o they_o shall_v take_v away_o his_o dominion_n to_o consume_v and_o to_o destroy_v it_o unto_o the_o end_n thus_o it_o be_v also_o evident_o the_o sense_n of_o these_o verse_n compare_v together_o that_o by_o the_o judgement_n sit_v be_v mean_v a_o certain_a number_n of_o saint_n that_o by_o the_o wisdom_n providence_n and_o power_n of_o the_o most_o high_a be_v convene_v together_o and_o invest_v with_o power_n and_o authority_n and_o a_o spirit_n of_o

he_o be_v say_v to_o come_v as_o the_o lightning_n that_o quick_o shine_v from_o one_o end_n of_o the_o heaven_n to_o the_o other_o so_o can_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n when_o he_o appear_v quick_o
