5. In these passages by day and time is meant the Coming of the Lord. By a day or time of darkness, of thick darkness, of obscurity, of no light, of devastation, of the end of iniquity, and of destruction, is meant the Coming of the Lord when He was no longer known, and consequently when there was nothing of the Church remaining. By a day cruel and terrible, a day of wrath, of anger, of tumult, of visitation, of sacrifice, of retribution, of distress, of battle and of clamour, is meant the Coming of the Lord to judgment. His Coming to establish a new Church, which will acknowledge Him as Redeemer and Saviour, is meant by the day in which Jehovah alone should be exalted; in which He should be One and His name One; in which the Branch of Jehovah should be for comeliness and glory; in which the righteous should flourish; in which He should keep alive, seek His sheep and make a new covenant; in which the mountains should drop new wine (mustum), and living waters go out from Jerusalem in which they should look unto the God of Israel besides many similar expressions.
