In this edition, the reader follows the arc of biblical prophecy set during the Persian empire. It connects Daniel's experiences with later visions in Zechariah and Haggai, and it explains how angels and kings shape the story of Israel’s return to Jerusalem. The text links ancient rulers like Cyrus, Darius, and Xerxes to the unfolding plan of God for Zion, offering a historical backdrop to key prophecies.

The narrative frames how the prophets interpreted events, the role of Jerusalem as a city of truth, and the hoped-for light surrounding Zion. It also points to the broader message of coming in two eras of promise, with an eye toward what these prophecies mean for readers today who study the biblical timeline.

Historical context for Daniel, Zechariah, and Haggai within the Persian era
How angels interact with human history and guide events around Jerusalem
Connections between prophecies and the idea of an enduring city of truth
How the text frames the anticipated eras of fulfillment and the call to study them

Ideal for readers interested in biblical prophecy, ancient history, and how biblical authors linked events across centuries.

About the Author

When twenty-two year old Stephen N Haskell first talked with a Sabbathkeeping Adventist, he declared, "If you want to keep that old Jewish Sabbath, you can do so, but I never shall." But later that day in 1853 the Sabbathkeeper, William Saxby, invited Haskell to his home, and explained the heavenly sanctuary and the three messages of Revelation 14. Haskell left Saxby's home deeply troubled, but after further study and prayer decided to follow the plain teachings of the Bible. During the next sixty-seven years Haskell served as an Adventist evangelist, church administrator, missionary, writer, and Bible teacher. In 1914 he published his most famous book, The Cross and Its Shadow, to help others understand the meaning of the sanctuary and its role of pointing to Christ.

Author of Bible Handbook.
