Principles and Criteria for the Use of the Old Testament in the book of Revelation The book of Revelation continues to inspire and challenge the contemporary reader with its poetic language and vexing symbolism. Its literary dynamics and visionary encounters trigger the imagination and deepen the desire to understand this enigmatic book better. Part of the complexity of Revelation is found in its indebtedness to antecedent literature, especially the Old Testament, which is woven into the very fabric of the book.1 John’s mind is saturated with the stories of the Old Testament and the book breathes the atmosphere of its ideas

Since that time, I have learned so much more that has strengthened my belief, not only in the validity of our 1844 pre- Advent teaching but in its importance as well. Many things have brought me to this point, one of them being that opponents of the doctrine not only have failed to come up with any- thing new to oppose it, they won’t even confront our best defenses of it. One would think that, after so much time, they would have some- thing original—something fresh—to level against what they so boldly disdain. Yet all they do is hurl the same arthritic arguments against the 1844 pre-Advent judgment: What about the context problem of Daniel 8? There’s no validity to the year-day principle. There’s no verbal link be- tween Daniel 8 and 9. Antiochus Epiphanes as the little horn, . and on and on. Of course, they claim that these arguments have never been answered.
