est, et Rex Regum.” Manifestum est itaque, quoniam ex his tres
interficiet ille qui venturus est, et reliqui subjicientur ei, et
ipse octavus in eis; et vastabunt Babylonem, et comburent eam igni,
et dabunt regnum suum bestiæ, et effugabunt Ecclesiam: post deinde
ab adventu Domini nostri destruentur. Quoniam enim oportet dividi
regnum, et sic deperire, Dominus ait: “Omne regnum divisum in se,
desolabitur: et omnis civitas vel domus divisa in se, non stabit.”
Dividi igitur et regnum, et civitatem, et domum oportet in decem: et
propterea jam partitionem et divisionem præfiguravit.
511 V. xxv. 3.
512 V. xxv. 4. Et Gabriel Angelus exsolvens ejus visionem, de hoc ipso
dicebat: “Et in novissimo regni ipsorum exsurget Rex improbus facie
valde, et intelligens quæstiones; et valida virtus ejus et
admirabilis; et corrumpet, et diriget, et faciet, et exterminabit
fortes et populum sanctum, et jugum torquis ejus dirigetur: dolus in
manu ejus, et in corde suo exaltabitur, et dolo disperdet multos, et
ad perditionem multorum stabit, et quomodo ova manu conteret.”
Deinde et tempus tyrannidis ejus significat, in quo tempore
fugabuntur Sancti, qui purum sacrificium offerunt Domino: “Et in
dimidio hebdomadis,” ait, “tolletur sacrificium et libatio, et in
Templum abominatio desolationis, et usque ad consummationem temporis
consummatio dabitur super desolationem;” dimidium autem hebdomadis
tres sunt anni et menses sex.
