Interpretation Of' Prophecy

Sir Isaac Newton left behind him a treatise on the interpretation of Daniel and the Apocalypse. It was printed after his death and is now reprinted from the firat edition except that the Latin of the copious extracts from Imperial edicts and Papal bulls has been done into English. To the reprint Sir William Whitla has prefixed a course of lectures which he delivered on the book of Daniel. He will have none of the higher criticism and interprets the prophecies literally and in_a strongly Protestant sense. - His study on the book has convinced him "beyond all doubt that we are near, possibly on the eve, of the most momentous happenings that have ever taken place on our planet." "'Newton's Daniel and the Apocalypse'"'-is issued by Mr. John Murray, and its price, 15s., is "not above the cost of publication.""
