SL245, described in the Sotheby catalogue as c. 300,000 words on 975 pp., was bought at the Sotheby sale by Gabriel Wells for £48 and sold to Yahuda on 1 Aug. 1936 for the sale price plus 15%. On 24 May 1949, Yahuda wrote to the London dealer Heinrich Eisemann, 'As to lot 245 the new arrangement and replacement of the pages resulted in 1,530 pages instead of 975 pages as many pages had to be taken out from other lots. But for this manuscript I have a customer who wants to pay a much higher price than $3,800 suggested by you.' If this was true, the prospective buyer's desire to part with his or her cash presumably waned. There must subsequently have been further reordering of the manuscript as the present Yahuda Ms. 7 amounts to nowhere near 1,530 pp.

 England Post-1700 English Holograph ReligionProphecy Transcribed by Micah Anshan Code audited by Michael Hawkins 1r Sect. III. Of the first & second Temples and their Candlesticks.

As a Beast & his horns signify a kingdom & the parts of a kingdom so a Temple & its candlesticks signify a Church & the parts of a Church. And in this Prophesy there are two Temples, the first wthwith seven candlesticks representing called the seven Churches of Asia, the second wthwith two Candlesticks called the two Witnesses. The first Temple represents the Church of God diffused throughout the kingdom of the Dragon: the second Temple represents the Church of God diffused throughout the kingdom of the Beast. While the Empire continues united & the whole is represented by the Dragon, the Church of God diffused through the whole Empire is represented by the first Temple & the seven Churches of Asia is represented by signified being the seven Candlesticks of are to be considered as the metropolis of this Church because wchwhich by their seven lamps they illuminate the whole Temple, are to be considered as the Metropolis of this Church, & their teachers as the seven lamps wchwhich illuminate the whole Church Catholick. But when the Empire becomes divided into two Empires represented by the Dragon & Beast., that each Empire may have its a new Temple is built in the Western Empire. Temple the first Temple continues in the kingdom of the Dragon & a new Temple is built in the kingdom of the Beast. And these two Temples are the two eyes & two leggs of of the son of Man & his two leggs standing upon the earth & sea. His eyes are like flames of fire & his leggs like amber or brass bringing in or shining brass as if they burned in a furnace to represent his people under persecutions. Before the division this Temple & the glorious Woman who appeared in it, signify one & the same true Church catholick but upon the division of the Empire the Woman flies from this Temple into the Wilderness of Arabia towards the great City Babylon & quitting her first metropolis the seven churches of Asia seats her self in an as the great city upon seven hills & leaves a remnant of her seed in the first Temple wchwhich remnant keeps the commandments & have the testimony of Iesus & are the twelve Tribes of Israel wchwhich worship in this Temple & out of wchwhich the 144000 are sealed, the rest in the war wchwhich the Dragon goes to make upon them & the rest receiving the mark of the Beast. Th The second Temple is in the kingdom of the Beast because the Beast makes war upon the two Witnesses represented by its Candlesticks prophesy in the streets of the great City Babylon & the Beast wchwhich ascends out of the abyss or sea & overcomes them & kills them in the streets of the great city Babylon wchwhich in the form of a Woman reign over him. And therefore the first Temple continues in the kingdom of the Dragon. For the seven Candlesticks do not cease at the division of the Empire but continue in the first Temple to yethe end of the Prophesy. The seven Angels wchwhich pour out sound the Trumpets & pour out the Vials being being are their lamps. & This Temple (not the second Temple but the Temple of the Tabernacle) standsing till the seven plagues of the seven Angels were be fulfilled, & the Church of Pergamus lastsing till Christ comes & fights against the Nicolaitans wthwith the sword of his mouth & that of Sardis till Christ comes as a thief, & the Churches of Thyatira being & Philadelphia are to hold fast 2r fast what they have till Christ comes. So then the Greek & Latin Empires

We told you above that the nations through which the Church whole Church of Christ was seated, were divided into three parts the Eastern Empire the Western Empire & the northern nations of Europe with their Churches false & true are represented by the Dragon & first Beast, the fals Prophet & Whore, the seven Candlesticks in the first Temple & the two Candlesticks in the second. For it was fit that all these things should be represented.

But youre are to remember that the nations through in wchwhich the whole Church of Christ was seated became divided into three parts, the eastern Empire the western Empire & the northern nations of Europe. After the division of the Empire The first Temple was seated in one of the three parts the eastern Empire wchwhich was one of the three parts, & the second Temple was seated in the other two parts & by its two Candlesticks represents the two Churches in those two parts one in each part within the old Western Empire the other within the northern nations under the Latin Church. For Charles the great king of France by conquering all Germany, & & by being Crowned Emperor of the Romans by the Pope & swearing fealty to the Church of Rome & by propagating establishing the authority & religion of the Pope into all his conquests propagated the reign of the into all Germany the reign dominion of the great Whore & the kingdom of Babylon of & that of the Beast upon wchwhich she sits, & the two Witnesses were to Prophesy in all the kingdom of the Beast. Dracia being a Province of the old Roman Empire is to be referred to the Greek Empire. To Germany I refer Behemia Silesia Lusatia Moravia & Switzerland. Hungary may be also referred to the body of yethe Beast being subject to the church of Rome & their kings always paying homage to yethe Emperor of Germany as Lazius proves by many examples & that part of Hungary wchwhich lyes on the south side of yethe Danube belonging originally to yethe Western Empire being a part of the western Empire before it was invaded by the Hunns. Dacia being a Province of the old Roman Empire belonged originally to yethe Greek Church.

But you are to remember that the nations in wchwhich the whole Church of Christ was seated consisted of three parts, the Eastern Empire the Western Empire & the northern nations of Europe. The first Temple before the division of the Empire, comprehended the whole: but After the division it comprehended only the nations of the Greek Empire amongst wchwhich I reccon Dacia; & as a new temple was built for the saints of the Western Empire & of the northern nations who had received the gospel from them. And this Temple comprehended two of the three parts, it has in it two Candlesticks & two olive trees to represent the two Churches called the two witnesses And these are the Churches called yethe two Witnesses. of those two parts, one Church within the Empire & yethe other among the northern nations. For Candlesticks signify Churches (Apoc. 1. 20) & so do Olive trees (Rom 11. 17) And these are the two Churches called the two Witnesses. For Charles the great The seven Candlesticks were applied to yethe Churches of particular cities & least you should apply the two Candlesticks to the churches of two cities they are called also two Olive trees. For Olive trees are types of Nations & national Churches (Ier. 11. 16. Rom. 11. 17) And these are the two Churches They are also called two Witnesses & by that name comprehend all the saints & Martyrs who prophesy against the Beast & Whore of Babylon & wthwith whose blood she is drunken. They torm For Charles yethe By their prophesying they tormented them that dwelt on the earth & were slain by the whole Beast & they of the people & the kindreds & tongues & nations saw their dead bodies in the street of yethe great city: all wchwhich argues that they are of large extents & by consequence extend into the northern nations. For the northern nations invaded the Empire & mixed with the Romans & at length in erecting the ten kingdoms & at length – Charles yethe great--- Beasts upon wchwhich she sits. And yethe mind of yethe Prophesy was to make the two Beast & his Churches true & false of one & yethe same extent so that the two two Witnesses might P prophesy against the Beast & Woman in all their dominions.
