The Controverted Little Book Of Revelation 10 And The Shape Of Apocalyptic Mission, George R. Knight
The Controverted Little Book Of Revelation 10 And The Shape Of Apocalyptic Mission, George R. Knight
Journal of the Adventist Theological Society
"If the contents of the little book of Revelation 10 are controverted, someone forgot to tell the founders of Seventh-day Adventism. William Miller, for example, in 1841 interpreted the little book that would be sweet in the mouth as being opened in 1798 as evidenced by the increased study of Daniel’s prophecies stimulated by events related to the French Revolution and the taking of the Pope captive by General Berthier.
