DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith

                                 ~The Response of History to the Revelation~

                                 Chapter 10 – The Proclamation of the Advent
                   And when the angel of this chapter comes


               down with the little book open, on which he


               bases his proclamation, he gives a message in

               were not to be opened till the time of the end;


               and if this is the book which the angel had in


               his hand open, it follows that he proclaims his


               message this side of the time when the book
