To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Bishop Newton, followed by Dr. Adam Clarke and some others, date them from the rise of the he-goat — about 336 B. C. — which would make them reach down to about A. D. 2000 — when according to them, Rome is to be destroyed, the Jews re- stored, and the millennial jubilee of universal holiness and peace ushered in. Others, commencing with the re-peopling of Jerusalem by Nehemiah 444 B. C, make them reach down to A. D. 1856. Mr. William Miller and those who adopt his calculations, commence with " ...the going forth of the com- mandment to restore and build Jerusalem, " (for their authori- ty, and how much support it has, see the interpretation of chap. 9: 24 — 27, ) and they fix the termination of the period in 1843, when, according to their assertion, this present earth shall be destroyed with fire, and the final judgment take place. We have seen how unauthorized and contradictory of sacred usage, is this last theory, which makes the cleansing of the sanctuary the destruction of the world.
