DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith
~The Response of History to the Revelation~
Chapter 7 – The Sealing
demands obedience, and his right to
demand it.
In a gospel prophecy found in Isaiah 8, we
read: “Bind up the testimony, seal the law
among my disciples.” This must refer to a
work of reviving some of the claims of the law
in the minds of the disciples, which had been
overlooked, or perverted from their true
meaning. And this, in the prophecy, is called
sealing the law, or restoring to it its seal,
which had been taken from it.
Again, the 144,000, who in the chapter before
us are said to be sealed with the seal of God in
their foreheads, are again brought to view in
Revelation 14:1, where they are said to have
the Father’s name written in their foreheads.
