Antichrist Will be a Specific Man.
Now I come to the Scriptures whereby it is proved that the seat of the Antichrist is going to be in Jerusalem, not Rome.
Revelations 11:8, where John says that Enoch & Elijah are going to fight with Antichrist in Jerusalem, and must be killed there by the same Antichrist: ‘And they will throw their bodies in the streets of the great city, which is spiritually called Sodom, and Egypt, where even their Lord was crucified.’
Arethas in this citation says: ‘Their bodies he will cast out unburied in the streets of Jerusalem, for in it he will reign as King of the Jews.’
Likewise, all other interpreters show, and this can be rightly said to be Jerusalem, and it cannot be denied.
For what City is it in which the Lord was crucified but Jerusalem?
