DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith

                                 ~The Response of History to the Revelation~

                                   Chapter 22 – The Tree and the River of Life
                   Here,  again,  we  have  the  declaration  that


               there shall be no night in the city; for the Lord


               God  will  be  the  light  of  the  place.  Verse  7


               proves that Christ is the speaker, a fact which


               it is of especial importance to bear in mind in


               connection with verse 14. To keep the sayings



               of  the  prophecy  of  this  book  is  to  obey  the


               duties brought to view in connection with the


               prophecy, as, for instance, in chapter 14:9-12.



               VERSE  8.  And  I  John  saw  these  things,  and


               heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I


               fell  down  to  worship  before  the  feet  of  the


               angel which showed me these things. 9. Then


               saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am


               thy  fellow  servant,  and  of  thy  brethren  the


               prophets, and of them which keep the sayings


               of  this  book:  worship  God.  10.  And  he  saith


               unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy
