Ezekiel39:9

Ver. 9. And they that dwell] Hyperbolical expreſſions; though the Jews hold otherwiſe. See on ver. 1.

Shall ſet on fire and burn the weapons] Do not the Churches Champions ſo at this day, ever ſince they proclaimed and proved the Pope to be that Antichriſt: burning up his weapons (his falſe doctrines and hereſies) by the fire of Gods Word, and giving their bodyes to be burned for the teſtimony of Jeſus?

And they ſhall burn them with fire ſeven years] i. e. Diutiſſime & ſaepiſſime! This ſeven years is not yet out. The Jeſuites ſay, Satan ſent Luther, and God ſent them to withſtand him. But there is a ſucceſſion of Luthers to find them work enough ſtill, and to burn up their weapons, that the Churches may be at reſt.
