a fit with history 

A Prophecy Fulfilled 

A number to connect them.  Numbers can be trusted.  Your interpretation, not so much.  There are way too many different translations of the bible but they all seem to agree on the numbers.  Only history can confirm the fulfillment of prophecy and only numbers can reliably connect history to prophecy.

A Color 

A reliable clue tying history to prophecy.  You can’t rely on anyone’s interpretation.  You can’t rely on bible translations.  There are over 60 different English translations.  Do you have time to look at the differences?  Who or what can you trust?  Somehow they all agree on numbers and colors.  It is a place to start.

A Sacred Bible 

a list of books that might not contain the Apocalypse at the end of the fourth century.  John Chrysostom, who never quoted the Apocalypse, was in Ephesus at the beginning of the fifth century and Jerome was finishing his Vulgate.  Was Chrysostom able to confirm that the Apocalypse was written by the Apostle?

A Translation Problem 

a commander or another interpretation problem if you are looking for the king of the north. There are eight different words in 52 different translations: princes 24, commanders 10, officers 7, officials 5, generals 2, leaders 2, principalities 1, subordinates 1. The word prince suggests a family member unlike the other seven words which have a similar meaning. Makes you wonder about words used in other parts of the bible. These are major differences in words used before you get to the problem of interpreting them. Reader beware.

a translation 

A Bible 

a different interpretation.  Would you believe 60 different English interpretations?  They can’t agree on the Word of God.  Who or what can you trust?  Numbers?  Numbers in the bible somehow survived all the translations.  All the versions.  All the interpretations.  Numbers can help us connect history to the prophecies.

A Reliable Word 

a consistent interpretation.  Numbers are one of the few things all 60 English versions of the bible agree on.  They all agree on “a thousand years”, 666, “ten horns”, and “seven heads” .  Can we find historical events that have all these numbers in a meaningful way?  Start with the biggest number.  A thousand years.

a history of the bible 

A Canon 

a redaction at the turn of the fifth century.  Jerome defined the bible when he finished the Vulgate which would become the official bible of the Church. It contains the oldest existing copy of the Apocalypse.  We can only speculate on what it looked like before that time based on other older existing documents.
