"These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their
prophecy, and have power over waters to turn them to blood." To whom
would these gifts and attributes apply better than to Elijah, who in the
days of the wicked King Ahab sealed the heavens against rain for three
years and a half? and to Moses, who, when contending with Pharaoh, turned
the sweet flowing Nile into a stream of blood? What two prophets had
such a wide range of prophetic energy and liberty as Moses and Elijah?
None. Well may the Revelator say, then, of them, that they can smite the
earth with all manner of plagues as often as they will.

By awful and sublime manifestations the world shall see that God rules in
the heaven and on the earth. They shall learn that Anti-Christ is a
false Christ. Then shall fear and repentance fall upon the people. The
Jews shall be convinced, and converted, and persuaded by the appearance
of their beloved Moses. They shall know of a truth that the Messiah has

But he tells us that "The Lord also shall save the tents of Judah first,

and government, shall see through the great mystery of Providence first.
The House of David is found in the royal family of England. The Jews,
seeing this, will invite, in concert with all the inhabitants of
Jerusalem, the English Government to take charge of their affairs.

"Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered
together and appoint themselves one _head_" (Hosea i. 2). The Jews will
then be Christians. "For they shall look upon Him whom they have
pierced, and they shall mourn for Him, as one mourneth for his only son."

At this time the whole world will be amazed and confounded at the
destruction of Anti-Christ and his host. The Jews, the House of David,
and the Lost Tribes, Israel, the Saxons, will hold a council in
Jerusalem. David's house, which God selected, and throne, both of which
the Almighty promised perpetuity to, shall be found and recognised in the
English throne and royal family. The Saxon race shall distinctively
appear as long-lost Israel. So that the Je
