Synopsis

A familiar exposition of Matthew 24 and Hosea, with writings on the Advent and the Last Day

This edition presents William Miller’s interpretation of Jesus’ prophecy in Matthew 24 and the parallel themes in Hosea, including an added address on the Second Advent and a dramatic scene of the Last Day. It also contains an excerpt from Dr. Cotton Mather on the second coming of Christ and editorial notes that frame the historical and religious context.

The text aims to illuminate how early 19th-century interpreters understood prophecy, time, and the earth’s future. It situates biblical verses within a broader discussion of millennial expectations and the unfolding of biblical promises, offering readers access to Miller’s approach and its reception at the time.

• Clear, dated lectures that connect biblical prophecy to historical events and expectations.
• Discussion of Hosea’s two-day/three-day framework and how it relates to future eras.
• Additional materials that provide context for the Advent movement and its address to a conference.
• Editorial perspective highlighting the influence of William Miller on religious thought of the era.

Ideal for readers exploring historical interpretations of biblical prophecy and the Advent movement, especially those interested in Miller’s writings and 19th-century religious debates.
