2dly. While the Prophecy directs us to the fact of the Tyrian Migration;--the discovery and identity of the Tyrians being on the Western Hemisphere establish the truth and fulfilment of the Prophecy;--thus giving additional value to that portion of Scripture, which in the eyes of unbelievers has been looked upon with impious doubt or suspicion. In a Work like the present, wherein an Original Theory, claims to be admitted into the Library of History,--and to be established there, upon the solid ground of argument and investigation only,--there is, therefore, no points of argument or objections that can consistently be passed by as unworthy of notice: and although under other circumstances, our early education, and mature belief would not permit even the mention of those sceptics, from whose lips in regard to this Prophecy objections will come,--yet in justice to our subject, and in duty and devotional gratitude to that Religion, through the merits of which we believe Salvation alone can be received,--we cannot retreat from the encounter even with the foes of Faith, but boldly meet them upon their own chosen field of atheism;--for this discovery in Tyrian-America has forced them into a defile, from which,--like the army in the Caudian death-vale,--there is no escape from the guarded and surrounding passes! Arguments to prove Scriptural truths, are not required for those who have placed their hope, as an anchor of Salvation, within the safe harbour of the Two Testaments:--but, even those believers will rest upon Ararat with confirmed security; and sceptics may be led (from finding no resting-place) to approach that Ark for safety, and to bring with them even the olive-leaf, when Time continues to give forth, even at this day,--renewed proofs that the visioned words of the Sacred Prophets, were originally from The Supreme GOD! Such a Divine herald was MOSES; and next in dignity from the importance of his mission was ISAIAH. The millions of Christians now living, and the thousands of millions covered by the mantle of death, within the dark mansions of the grave, do, and have believed, that that inspired writer truly foretold to Ahaz, King of Judæa, that "God's sign" should be the _Miraculous Birth_ from a _Virgin_-Mother of a REDEEMER--of CHRIST IMMANUEL. [_i. e._ God with us.] That same Prophet foretold the Fall of Tyrus. JEREMIAH and EZEKIEL did the same. Their writings concerning that event respectively bear date 712-606-588 years B.C. They also foretold that Judæa should be captive to the Babylonian 70 years; which time, computed from the capture of Jerusalem and destruction of the first Temple, 588 B.C., to the period of building the _Second_ Temple, 518 B.C., would exactly complete the fulfilment of the Prophecy: or if the time is computed from the captivity of the _King_ of Judæa, 606 B.C., to the return of the Jewish people from Babylon, 536 B.C., then the 70 years are, also, exactly accomplished.
