One and twenty days began in the third of Belshazzar, and expired

in the first of Darius-Connection of the strengthening of Darius

with the purposes of Providence in behalf of the Jews-Oppo-

sition of the prince of Persia, not over in the third of Cyrus-

Daniel's fasting and mourning, probably due to the success of the

Prince of Persia and prince of Grecia, designations of what-Opin-

ion of bishop Horsley with respect to both-Objections to this

explanation-Princes of Persia, not recognised in Scripture-

Prince of Persia or Grecia in Daniel, analogous to the prince of

Tyrus in Ezekiel-Hebrew designation of the prince of Persia in-

applicable to a party or faction-Anachronism involved in the

bishop's explanation—A party or faction an abstraction, the prince

of Persia a reality of some kind-The Prince of Persia, a superhu-

man being as much as Gabriel or Michael .. . . . . 567-572

God upon earth, restricted to what class of angels-Proofs of this

position from the Scriptures of the New Testament-Archon of

Persia, archon of Grecia, archon of Tyre, in unison with this de-

scription-Equally so, the archon of archons, or archon of the

people of God, the archangel Michael..

Warfare of such principles as these upon each other, not to be ex-

plained at present-Possible, that one of its modes may be by

working upon and by men-Combination of the prince of Persia
