Prophesy as a Language

"I find the word “air or wind” used as in Revelation 9:2 and 16:17. To understand which, I turn to Ephesians 2:2,Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: and learn that it is used to denote the theories of worldly men, or vain philosophy, see also Ephesians 4:14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

Again, the word “water, waters, or rivers,” are used. I trace the words and find an explanation in Revelation 17:15, And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.--- it means “people, multitude, nations.” 

 Again, I find the word “bird or fowl,” and in Isaiah 46:11, Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it. It is, used meaning a conqueror or warrior, to wit, Cyrus. Also in Ezekiel 39:1-9, denotes armies or conquerors.

As prophesy is a language, somewhat different from other parts of Scripture, the events foretold are not all told by one prophet. 

And yet there is a perfect chain. 

They interweave their prophecies in such a manner that you take away one, and a link will be wanting. 

Truth is one undeviating path, that grows brighter and brighter the farther we pursue it." 

Joshua Himes
