Isaac Newton: Daniel & Revelation

Contributions to the study of Daniel & Revelation by Sir Isaac Newton

The five visions of Daniel and the Book of Revelation are to be read as one coherent set using the same imagery.

• Each vision adds more details to the earlier, so that the final picture can be pieced together like a jigsaw puzzle.
• Each horn is an entire kingdom,
• Each of the four beasts represents non-overlapping countries which endure until the Ancient of Days comes in judgment.
• ***He derived the laws of physics believing God follows set laws, and he assumes the revelations from God also follow set laws.***
• Some of the revelations may find a dual fulfillment in both the first and second coming of Jesus Christ.
• The three and a half times of the little horn of the fourth beast are to be reckoned as 1,260 years, rather than three and a half years (1,260 days), the more common modern interpretation.

When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
Matthew 24:15
