 * it shall be.
   Though it is not generally agreed what people or transactions
   are here predicted, yet it seems evident that the prophecy is
   not yet accomplished.  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.
