Daniel 11 with footnotes (1599 Geneva Bible Notes)

When was the prophecy of Daniel 11:40 fulfilled? What kind of "end" is referred to here? Since someone has baselessly suggested that, based on Daniel 11:40, this is only now being fulfilled—involving the European Union and Russia—let us examine what the 1599 Geneva Bible commentary and etymological lexicons say about this. Biblehub analysis 6256 [e] ū·ḇə·‘êṯ 7093 [e] qêṣ, Lexical Summary eth: Time, season Original Word: עֵת Part of Speech: Noun Feminine Transliteration: `eth Pronunciation: ayth Phonetic Spelling: (ayth) KJV: + after, (al-)ways, X certain, + continually, + evening, long, (due) season, so (long) as, (even-, evening-, noon-)tide, ((meal-)), what) time, when NASB: time, times, season, when, now, year, appointed time Word Origin: [from H5703 (עַד - forever)] 1. time, especially (adverb with preposition) now, when, etc Strong's Exhaustive Concordance after, always, certain, continually, evening, long, due season, so long as, From ad; time, especially (adverb wi...

The drying up of the Euphrates: literal or symbolic?

The drying up of the Euphrates: literal or symbolic? Revelation 16:12: The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the east. Many believe that the drying up of the great Euphrates River described in the Book of Revelation will be a literal event. The release of the angels stationed at the Euphrates and the drying up of the river are precursors to a terrible war: at the sounding of the sixth trumpet, an army numbering two hundred million (Rev. 9:16) gathers to destroy one-third of the earth's population (Rev. 9:18). Could there be a symbolic meaning behind this great river? Specifically, might nations with massive populations attack countries where—due to population decline and a lack of generational renewal—relatively few people remain by comparison? At one time, these states with "dried-up" populations possessed vast numbers of people—hence they could be symbolically called the "great...

"Marcion, the Heretic the Church Follows" – A Historically Supported View

 "Marcion, the Heretic the Church Follows" – A Historically Supported View A few years ago, I came across an English-language book titled *Marcion, the Heretic the Church Follows*. The work introduces Marcion, a figure who broke away from Christianity and whose father was the Bishop of Sinope. During the Bar Kokhba revolt (132–135)—when Roman authorities banned the Jewish religion—he traveled widely to collect books containing Jewish texts found among Christians and burn them. In his work on the history of the Church, the atheist author Raoul Vaneigem portrays Marcion as the person who transformed classical, original Judeo-Christianity into a neo-pagan Greco-Christianity (Chapter 11: "Marcion and the Hellenization of Christianity" – Raoul Vaneigem: *The Resistance to Christianity: The Heresies at the Origins of the 18th Century*, 1993).

Who will be saved according to the Bible?

Orthodox Bible, Holy Gospel of John 5: 28. Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear his voice, 29. And they will come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of condemnation. What does it mean not to do good? First Epistle to the Corinthians of the Holy Apostle Paul 6: 9. Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites, 10. Nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. What will be your fate? The book of the holy prophet Daniel 12: 2. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall arise, some to everlasting life, and some to everlasting reproach and shame. You can still be saved! Do not miss the opportunity and do not let yourself die like an unjust, not doing good for the...

Revelation 18:4–5 warns

Image
 Revelation 18:4–5 warns God’s people to “come out” of Babylon so they will not share in her sins or receive her plagues, because her sins have “piled up to heaven” and God has remembered her crimes.  Full Text (Major Translations) New International Version (NIV) “‘Come out of her, my people,’ so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues; for her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her crimes.” King James Version (KJV) “Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.” Context These verses appear in a section describing the fall of “Babylon the Great,” symbolizing the sinful and false religion opposed to God. The call to “come out” is a command for separation from its sinful practices to avoid sharing in its judgment.  The passage emphasizes divine justice and the certainty of Ba...

Do you have the seal of God on your forehead? July 12, 2026 What word does the seal of God contain? Deciphering the seal Apostolic Bible, Revelation of John 9:1 ​​And the fifth angel sounded his trumpet, and I saw a star from heaven fall to the earth; and he was given the key to the bottomless pit. 2 And he opened the bottomless pit, and smoke rose from the pit like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the pit. 3 And locusts came out of the smoke on the earth; and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power. 4 And it was commanded them that they should not harm the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. Every seal has a writing on it. What is this seal written on? Apostolic Bible, Revelation 3:12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the nam...

"Napoleon Removed the Pope" - an Unbiblical Sign for False Predictors

 "Napoleon Removed the Pope" - an Unbiblical Sign for False Predictors What False Misinterpretations (Predictions) Did Russell Make? What Was He Based On? And How Can It Affect Us, If We Believe Him? 1798 Wrong Year! - Russell considered the end of the 1260 days (which he converted into years) of Revelation chapter 12 to be in this year. Source: "Three Worlds", a joint publication of Barbour and Russell, 1877, p.114. This explanation was later changed, 1798 being changed to 1889. But these days of Revelation 12 have not yet occurred, but will occur 1260 days before Armageddon! They are days, not years. Be very careful! Russell converted days into years and placed them preferentially in history. What a big mistake he made. The Year 1798 Wrong! - Russell considered this year to be the beginning of the "last days." By Napoleon's removal of the Pope, he considered the 1260 days described in Daniel 7:25; Daniel 12:7; Revelation 11:1-3 to have been fulfilled...
