You may be right, but for me you seem to be adding narrative to scripture. Interesting narrative, but you can see why I can't accept something not exactly spelled out. Right now, I only see martyrs in the first resurrection as that is all that is written and known for sure. Revelation 20: 4...

You seem to be emphasizing the 6th hour, which seems to me to be noon, if the 9th hour is 3:00 pm. I don't know what you are referring to, and I still don't know what hour He was nailed to the cross. How long before the others spoke? I don't know. And I still can't say what the half hour of...

Don't forget verse 9 shows where they are - not off the earth in heaven, but on the earth. 9 They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city.

Yes, I know that, but I read context in Daniel. It directly applies to the particular prophecy involved, which is why chapter 8 is about Greece in BC, but Daniel 7 before it has to do with end times. Revelation is out of order in places as well.

Good night all

Zechariah is a great book to study along with Revelation.

New Covenant

This is the New Covenant, the same one we are under. I do not see this starting after the battle of Armageddon. Isn't that what you said?

How does this relate to my post?

Daniel covers the time of the Babylonians (head of gold) to the end of time feet of iron and clay. The stone that crushes it is Jesus, the cornerstone, made without hands.

That IS the prophetic principle. When there is a specific, it refers to the first time it was used, thus the law of first usage. 2300 evenings and mornings, looks back at creation. You don't have to believe me if you don't want to. Besides, the prophecy refers to the length of time of the...

Our bodies will die, yes, but at the second coming when those bodies are raised in the resurrection, they will be changed and put on immortality to match that of our soul and spirit. 1 Cor. 15.

I was looking at that in Revelation, and I was surprised to see that the first resurrection were of martyrs only. The second resurrection after the 1000 years could have been for all others, and the Christians would have had their names written in the Book of Life, and the wicked's names would...

Correct, and it was the first usage of evening and morning specifying 24 hours.

The difference between prophetic time and real time are specifics, and the law of first usage. Evening and morning was a 24 hour period, thus 2300 evenings and mornings are 2300 literal 24 hour days. That is the whole reason it DOESN'T just say 2300 days, but brought us back to the first usage...

No, I think it means "salvation." Or coming into Christ's Church/Bride.

How many years was the creation?

@Ziggy You and farouk started it. :p For once something isn't my fault!

Yeah, big time. I can't even remember what started the rabbit trail...

Yes, that is in one of Peter's epistles, but "midday" rings a bell, but I could be dreaming...
