7. Controv. That Antichrists seat shall not be
at Ierusalem.
So hold the Romanists generally that Antichrist shall haue his Imperiall seate at Ierusa∣lem,
command circumcision, and cause the Temple to be reedified. Bellar. lib. 3. de Roman.
Pontif. c. 13. Rhemists 2. Thess. 2. sect. 11.
But this is a groundlesse and weake conceit of theirs, as it may appeare euidently by these
reasons: New Babylon shall be the seate of Antichrist, Apoc. 17. 5. but Rome is new Baby∣lon:
the great citie which then ruled ouer the earth was Babylon, Apoc. 17. 5. 18. but that
was Rome, which then had the command of the earth: Hierome also saith, speaking of
Rome, dum in Babylone versarer, while I was conuersant in Babylon. praefat. ad Paulin••m.

whereon the woman sitteth: the citie which stood vpon seuen mountaines should be
the seat of Antichrist: but Rome is notoriously knowne to be that citie built vpon seuen
hills:* 1.1 therefore none other seat shall Antichrist haue then the citie of Rome: see further els∣where:
we must but touch euery thing briefly here.
