DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith
~The Response of History to the Voice of Prophecy~
Chapter 8 – Vision of the Ram, He-Goat & Little Horn
presented is certainly sufficient to prove this
fact. Paul says that the tabernacle of Moses
was the sanctuary of the first covenant. Moses
says that God showed him in the mount a
pattern, according to which he was to make
this tabernacle. Paul testifies again that Moses
did make it according to the pattern, and that
the pattern was the true tabernacle in heaven,
which the Lord pitched, and not man; and that
of this heavenly sanctuary the tabernacle
erected with hands was a true figure, or
representation. And finally, John, to
corroborate the statement of Paul that this
sanctuary is in heaven, bears testimony, as an
eye-witness, that he beheld it there. What
further testimony could be required? Nay,
more, what further is conceivable?
