DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith

~The Response of History to the Voice of Prophecy~

Chapter 2-The Great Image
grave, which ransomed multitudes shall

raise; whose light is not the intermittent light

of earth, but the unceasing and ineffable glory

of God and the Lamb. Into this city they shall

enter, not as captives entering a foreign land,

but as exiles returning to their father’s house;

not as to a place where such chilling words as

“bondage,” “servitude,” and “oppression,”

shall weigh down their spirits, but to one

where the sweet words, “home,” “freedom,”

“peace,” “purity,” “unutterable bliss,” and

“unending life,” shall thrill their bosoms with

delight forever and ever. Yea; our mouths

shall be filled with laughter, and our tongue

with singing, when the Lord shall turn again

the captivity of Zion. Psalms 126:1, 2;

Revelation 21:1-27.
