The sun and moon shall be darkened, etc.] Both the politic and ecclesiastic state of antichrist shall be ruined and destroyed; it shall “fare” with Rome Papal as it did with Rome Pagan, at the time of its dissolution; (see <660612>Revelation 6:12,13 16:8); and the stars shall withdraw their shining: antichristian princes and nobles in the civil state, and the clergy of all ranks in the church state, shall lose their glory.
