Daniel9:27

Ver. 27. And he (Meſſiah) ſhall confirm the Covenant] See ver. 24. with many] Heb. with his Rabbines, that is, with his Elect. Confer Eſa. 53.11. Job 32.9. Jer. 41.2.

For one week] i. e. In the laſt ſeven years of the ſeventy.

And in the midſt of the week] i. e. In three years and a half, he ſhall by his paſſion, diſannul the Jewiſh ſacrifices and ſervices.

And for the overſpreading (or wing) or abominations] i. e. For the abominable outrages committed by the ſeditious Jews thoſe zelots (as they called themſelves) who filled the Temple with dead bodyes. Others, from Mat. 24.15.16. with Luk. 20.20, 21. think the Romans to be meant who ſet up their Eagles (their enſignes) in the Temple, together with the images firſt of Caligula, and then of Titus their Emperours.

Perpetuâ & conſummatiſſ. conſumptione urgentur. Even untill the conſummation] Until the end, and to the utmoſt. The Jews have oft attempted, but could never yet recover their country, nor are like to do.

Shall be poured] As if the windows of heaven were opened, as once they were at the flood: See ver. 26.
