ng Esau and
Ishmael. They are the descendants of Abraham, and so they very naturally
fall into the prophetic line.

The Hungarians came from this family through Lot. The Poles and Magyars
are from Moab and Ammon. These things being so, it is no wonder the
Hungarians and Turks should sympathise, nor that England should have a
liking for Turks, England being the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel. Alliance
and sympathy between England and Turkey has a deeper root and meaning
than some are willing to admit. Turkey, however, as a distinct empire,
is nearly at an end. The recognition of the Ten Lost Tribes, and their
restoration with the Jews to Palestine, is connected with the downfall of
Turkey. "Saviours are to come up on Mount Zion to judge the Mount of
Esau, and the kingdom shall be the Lord's" (Obad.).

How clearly speaks Obadiah again when he says, "How are the things of
Esau searched out! how are his hidden things sought up! All the men of
thy confederacy have brought thee even to the border; the men that were
at peace with thee have deceived thee, and prevailed against thee; they
that eat thy bread have laid a wound under thee; there is none

destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the Mount of
Esau?"

These are the latter times of the king of fierce countenance. Hear
Daniel inquiring of the angel in this vision, "How long shall be the
vision concerning the daily sacrifice and the transgression of
desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under
foot? And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days."
These days are generally allowed to stand for years. If so, Jerusalem
was destroyed 70 A.D. The time Daniel saw this vision was about 490
B.C.; take 70 from this leaves 420. From 2,300 take 420, and we have
1,880. "Then shall the sanctuary be cleansed." What means this? It
means Jerusalem will recur back again into the hands of the Jews and
Israel. Christ said that the Jews "should fall by the edge of the sword,
and be led away captive into all nations; and Jerusalem shall be trodden
down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled" (Luke
xxi. 24).

Now we know the Jews did fall by the sword when the Romans took
Jerusalem. Second, we know they were scattered among the nations.
Third, Jerusalem has been trodden under foot--so much so, that Christians
have not been per
