“The Prophecy Concerning The Jews In The Latter Days—Daniel 10, 11, 12” (Page 126)
“‘And his end shall be in the overflowing’: I suppose that this speaks of the end of the prince who shall come; in the expression ‘the overflowing,’ allusion seems to be made to some known event in prophecy; I suppose that it is the same overflowing as that which is alluded to in Isa. 10:22, and 28:18. This would identify the time of this prince with the crisis of Israel’s history:—this identification is (as we shall see) yet more decidedly brought out in the subsequent part of the vision.” (Pages 102–103)
“But as to palliation of Popery, I say with all confidence that I see such consequences legitimately deducible from the application of such Scriptures as 2 Thes. 2 to the Popedom, that were I to do this I should feel that I were indeed palliating Romanism. What is meant by ‘the temple of God’?” (Pages 185–186)
“(the period when earthly power has had before it the light of Christ’s gospel, and has rejected it)” (Page 48)
“the tenfold division of the Roman earth of which mention is here made, has never yet taken place” (Page 42)
