Signs of the Times offers invaluable firsthand insight into the Millerites, a trans-denominational Adventist movement that emerged from North America’s Second Great Awakening. Based on calculations from Daniel 8:14, William Miller and his followers predicted that Christ would return October 22, 1844. They proclaimed and defended their prophetic time calculations in Signs of the Times. Joshua V. Himes was both publisher and editor.
This collection of 24 issues, beginning in March 1840, explains the Millerites’ interpretation of Daniel’s prophecies about Christ’s first coming as Messiah and his pre-millennial second coming. Following what became known as their “Great Disappointment,” Miller and Himes became involved in various Adventist groups, but neither became Seventh-day Adventists.
