Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Historical Guide: Explaining the Typical Representations and Symbolical Prophecies of the Holy Scriptures, With Special Regard to the Book of Daniel and the Revelation of St. John It has pleased God to give us a book, in which His entire will is made known; it is His word - the Bible. That is the light which shines on our pathway before us. In this word He speaks to us in language exceedingly simple, but at the same time in figures, parables, typical representations and symbolical prophecies. These last are often difficult to understand, especially when their fulfillment takes place only after a long time. To them belong pre-eminently the prophecies of Daniel and the Revelation of St. John. But whatever is obscure before being fulfilled, must become clear as soon as consummation takes place. The symbolical prophecies of the Old Testament are completed and centred in the Apocalypse. This is particularly the case with those of Daniel, whose predictions, extending through the history of thousands of years, are brought out to full view in the symbols of the Revelation. That many things in the Book of Daniel have to this day remained inexplicable, cannot be denied, though there is no lack of explanations, for these exist in abundance. But it has been deeply felt that clearness and harmony are wanting, especially in regard to the prophetic chronology of this book. It cannot, therefore be considered presumptuous, when new efforts are made to attain to more perfect certainty and consistency; especially as we live in that period in which the sealed book is opened, and when, "many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased." Dan. xii. 4. May then this humble effort to elucidate these wonderful prophecies, be the means under God´s guidance, of approaching nearer to the desired end. To Him. the Eternal One, the Creator of all things, be thanks forever - Amen. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
