John Trapp on Zechariah 14:9

Verſe 9. And the Lord ſhall be King over all the carth] At the ſounding of the ſeventh Angel, the Kingdoms of this world ſhall become the Kingdoms of our Lord and of his Chriſt: and he ſhall reigne for ever and ever, Rev. 11.15, 17. Coſmographers tell us, that if we divide all the known world into thirty parts, the Heathens part is as nineteen of this thirty: the Mahometans as ſix, the Chriſtians as five only. And of thoſe that profeſſe the name of Chriſt, three parts at leaſt of thoſe five are poſſeſt by Idolatrous Papiſts; who ſay they believe in one only true God, but indeed ſet up many He-ſaints and She-ſaints, whom they adore with divine worſhip: and therein are no better then Pagans. Hence they are called Gentiles, Rev. 11.2. and are ſaid to worſhip Divels, R[illegible: 1 letter]v. 9.20 with 1 Cor. 10.20. Cardinal Bombus ſaith of their Saint Franci[illegible: 1 letter], that he was in numcrum Deorum ab[illegible: 1 letter] Eccleſia Rom. relatus. At Ruremund in Gelderland, a play was acted by the Jeſuites,In Hist. Ven. Anno Dom. 1622. under the title of the Apotheoſis of St. Ignatius the founder of that Order. In the year 610. Boniface the fourth ordained the feaſt of All-ſaints, after that he had obtained of the Emperour the Idol-temple at Rome called the Pantheon; Jac. Ren. de vit. Pont. 309. wherein he placed the Virgin Mary in the roome of Cybcle the Mother of the Heathen Gods. Now the time is yet to come (and oh that it were come!) that, all falſe worſhip laid aſide and abandoned, the fulneſſe of the Gentiles ſhall be brought in: and from the Jews (as ſome gather from this Text compared with others) ſhall the Goſpel go out to all Nations of the world, Iſay. 2.3. who with one conſent ſhall ſubmit themſelves to Chriſt. Aſhur and Egypt, all thoſe large and vaſt Countries, the whole tract of the Eaſt and of the South ſhall embrace the faith of Chriſt and be converted, Iſa. 19.23, 24, 25. and 27.12, 13. Mich. 7.11, 12. Pſal. 68 31. and 72.9, 10, 11. Rev. 21.14. O dieculam illam! Neither need we think it incredible: God can hiſſe for them and fetch them in 'ſuddenly: he can cauſe a Nation to conceive and bring forth in one day, Eſay 66.8, 9. A Text that Cardinall Poole in a letter to Pope Julius the third abuſed: by applying it to the bringing in of Popery again ſo univerſally and ſuddainly in Queen Maries dayes.

ſhall there be one Lord] Be the Gods of the Heathen good-fellows ſaith One, the true God is a jealous God, and will not ſhare his glory with another. Be it that to Pagans and Papagans there are Gods many and Lords many: to us there is but one God, and but one Mediatour betwixt God and man, the man Chriſt Jeſus. As for all others, ſay we of them, as that Heathen once did, Comemno minutos iſtos Deos modò Jovem propitium habeam, I care not for thoſe petty-deities, ſo long as Jehovah favoureth me. Heare O Iſrael (ſaith Moſes, Deut. 6.4.) Jehovah thy God, Jehovah is one. The Hebrew word there uſed for One hath Daleth the laſt letter (which alſo ſtands in number for [illegible: 1 letter]our) extraordinary great in the Originall: to ſignifie ſay the Jew-Doctors, that this one God ſhall be worſhipped in the foure corners of the earth.

and his Name one] that is, One way of worſhip; all Superſtitions being aboliſhed, ſee Mich. 4.5. Or, his Name, that is, his glory as Pſal. 8.1. his tranſcendent excellency ſhall be ſupereminent: He ſhall have a name above all names, that at the name of Jeſus every knee may bow. Thus the word Name is uſed both in Divine and Humane Authors, Gen. 6.14. Men of Name, that is, of Renown: ſo Numb. 1.16. and 16.2. Acts 1.15. the number of Names, that is, of the chieſtaines that were fit to act in the Election. Contrary whereunto is men without name, Job 30.8. men written in the earth, Jer. 17.30. ſhrouded in the ſheet of ſhame,—ingloria vita recedit. and whoſe happineſſe it is to be forgotten in the City, Eccleſ. 8.10. So the Poets call Eminent and famous men Nomina, as Ovid doth Auguſtus: Vive tibi, & longè No nina magna fuge.

And ſpeaking of ſome famous perſon he ſaith Claros inter habens nomina clara viros.
