DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith

~The Response of History to the Revelation~

Chapter 1 – The Opening Vision
Battle Creek, Mich.) If this was the universal

designation of the first day at the time the

Revelation was written, the same writer

would most assuredly call it so in all his

subsequent writings. But John wrote the

Gospel after he wrote the Revelation, and yet

in that Gospel he calls the first day of the week,

not Lord’s day, but simply “first day of the

week.” For proof that the Gospel was written

at a period subsequent to the Revelation, the

reader is referred to such standard authorities

as the Religious Encyclopedia, Barnes’s Notes

(Gospels), Bible Dictionaries, Cottage Bible,

Domestic Bible, Mine Explored, Union Bible

Dictionary, Comprehensive Bible, Paragraph

Bible, Bloomfield, Dr. Hales, Horne, Nevins,

and Olshausen.
