That's fascinating.

Who knew that the technology existed in 70AD to number every person on the face of the earth? When was the Mark of the Beast implemented? To think that Antioches Epiphanes was the Antichrist! Was all of Revelation fulfilled in 70AD, or just Revelation 13:18? Because if we have already had the Antichrist, then there are many prophecies that must have been fulfilled around the same time, right?

Tell me, how exactly did they go about drying up the Euphrates River in 70AD? When was the Gospel preached to all the nations? When did 100-pound hailstones fall from the sky? Where can I read about the 200 million man army from the East that marched into the Valley of Meggido in 70AD since none of this is recorded in Scripture and it's not in any history book ever published?

Why did we have the rebirth of Israel in 1948? If Jerusalem was forever removed from being the burdensome stone in 70AD, why has it now returned to that status? When did all the Jews shout, "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord," as Jesus said they would?

I think it's amazing that it appears that only few people know that such earth-shattering, momentous events happened 2000 years ago!

Can you refer me to some credible, verifiable history texts which can educate me as to how the book of Revelation already happened in 70AD?

Thanks in advance.

John's Apocalypse is a book that tells us, explicitly, right at the front, that it relates what it tells us in symbols.

he 200 million man army from the East that marched into the Valley of Meggido

Gee. In my Bible Har magedon is seven chapters away.

Excellent post well put.

Of course only the folks with their heads in the sand; or buried in piles of confetti from their shredded Bibles, shredded histories, shredded dictionaries . . . believe such hell fostered idiocies.

On horses. Don't forget the horses.

And don't forget that there are not nearly that many horses in the ENTIRE WORLD!

Perhaps we really are dealing with images and symbols here.
