1332. 'A hundred years' means the state of this Church in general. This is clear from what has been stated and shown already in 482, 487, 488, 493, 575, 647, 648, 755, 813, 893, about numbers and years in general meaning periods of time and states. But which states and what kinds are meant by the number 'a hundred years', and also by the numbers of years mentioned in later verses of this chapter, would take too long to explain here. And what is more, it is a complicated subject.
