DANIEL X, XI, XII.
DANIEL mourning for the hindrance of the Temple, seeth Christ as John did in Patmos: And hath a Revelation of the condition of his own people, under their powerful Enemies, till the madness of An∣tiochus Epiphanes was over: He should violate the Sanctuary, and cause Re∣ligion and Moses Law to lie in the dirt for a time, two Times, and half a time, or three years and an half, or one thousand two hundred and nine∣ty days; But he that waiteth and liveth to see five and forty days more, or till those one thousand two hundred and ninety days be made up one thousand three hundred and thirty five days, he should see an end of Antiochus.
Artaxerxes Ahashuerus.
[World 3474] [Artax. Ahashuerus 1] The building of the Temple lieth forgot and forlorn by the command of Artaxerxes Ahashuerosh the present King of Persia: Hereupon divers of the Jews that had gone up to Jerusalem in the first of Cyrus, re∣turn back again in this Kings reign, to their old residence in Babylonia or in Persia again.
[Artax. Ahashuerus 2] The building of the Temple lieth still quite forlorn.
