Daniel 8:26 "And the vision of the evenings and mornings
which has been told is true; But keep the vision
secret, For it pertains to many
days in the future."
Daniel 12:4 "But as for you, Daniel, conceal
these words and seal up
the book until the end of time"
Daniel was a prophet who wrote about 600 BC
The angel told Daniel to "seal up" the prophecy
Yet Daniel's prophecies were fulfilled with the earthly ministry
of Jesus and shortly thereafter.
What is reasonable?
If Daniel was told seal up the
prophecy for only a 600 year period
John was told not to seal up the
book equals a period of more then 1900 years?
Daniel said in 600 BC
John said in 96 AD
Seal up the prophecy
do not seal up prophecy
Jesus fulfilled 600 years later
Still not fulfilled 1900 years later?
This interpretation is not reasonable
Question:
The Bible says: "And he (the angel) said to me (John)
, 'Do not
seal up
the words of the prophecy
of this book, for the time
is near.'"
Rev 22:10
What did John mean when he said
"do not seal up for the time is near"
