Nothing occurred in the wars of Cambyses, or Antiochus Epiphanes with the Jews, that answers to it; and the expression here used, in the latter days, plainly implies that there should be a succession of many ages between the publication of the prediction and its accomplishment. It is therefore supposed, with much probability, that its fulfilment will be posterior to the conversion of the Jews and their restoration to their own land; and that the Turks, Tarters, or Scythians, from the northern parts of Asia, perhaps uniting with the inhabitants of some more southern regions, will make war upon the Jews and be cut off in a manner predicted here. 8; De 31:29; Isa 2:2; Da 2:28; 10:14; Ho 3:5; Mic 4:1; 1Ti 4:12Ti 3:1that the.23; 36:23; 39:21; Ex 14:4; 1Sa 17:45-47; 2Ki 19:19; Ps 83:17,18Da 3:24-29; 4:32-37; 6:15-27; Mic 7:15-17; Mt 6:9,10 whom.10,11,16; Ps 110:5,6; Isa 27:1; 34:1-6; 63:1-6; 66:15,16Da 11:40-45; Joe 3:9-14; Zec 12:2-8; 14:1-21by.
