A Newton Project
A commentary on the Apocalypse. “Amongst the Interpreters of the last age there is scarce one of note who hath not made some discovery worth knowing; and thence I seem to gather that God is about opening these mysteries. The success of others put me upon considering it; and if I have done any thing which may be useful to following writers, I have my design.” Interesting.

A historian and a commentary on the Apocalypse. A project documenting his works. “The folly of Interpreters has been, to foretell times and things by this Prophecy, as if God designed to make them Prophets. By this rashness they have not only exposed themselves, but brought the Prophecy also into contempt.” Interesting.

A Big Problem
A word can be misleading 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 common 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 History
A reliable connection to prophecy. Your interpretation not so much. Same for many bible translators who do not agree. Numbers survive both. It is the only reliable way to verify the fulfillment of prophecy. Use numbers to connect history with what has been prophesied. A thousand years is a good place to start.

A Home for Doubt
A necessary explanation for what we experience. We have to make sense of it. To ignore it is to deny reality. To deny objectivity. Call it speculation, conjecture, or whatever but please accept the fact that there must be a reason, a purpose, a meaning, etc.

A Number
A connection between history and prophecy that can be trusted. Your interpretation? Not so much. Your translation? Not so much except for numbers and colors. Somehow they have survived what translators do to the Word of God. Some things are sacred.

A White Robe
A little season. They were told they should rest until the full number of their fellow servants would be killed as they were. Numbers. Follow the numbers. Pay attention to the numbers. No need for interpretation. All the different translations of the bible somehow get them right.

A Sealed Revelation
A key to understanding. Only He can open the book and break the seven seals. Only history can verify the fulfillment of prophecy and only numbers and colors can connect them. Start with a big number like a thousand years and see if it fits with the smaller ones. Interpreting what has been translated is not reliable.

A Search for Truth
A hidden prophecy to be revealed in the end. How? To those who watch? Watch for what? Something that fits with what has been prophesied. Based on your interpretation? Based on a certain bible translation? Is there anything that they agree on? Yes. Numbers and colors. Try connecting history and prophecy with just numbers and colors.

A Prophecy
A testimony of Jesus Christ. Sealed by Daniel but not by John. What has been revealed is still a mystery to all of us. Many have theories as to what it may be with little agreement. Most would like to know what the future holds and a few are willing to inspect history for clues but misleading interpretations prevent them from recognizing what has already happened.
