Appendix 5 Footnotes
[1] The entirety of chapter 20 but especially 20:1-8.
[2] John 18:36b
[3] In the Appendix, when discussing the Beast kingdoms throughout history, we speak of the second-to-last kingdom, the one that will come “for a short while.” There we said it was likely, but not certain, that Hitler’s Reich was this short-lived Beast kingdom. Supporting this was Hitler’s intentional millenarian reference to the Third Reich as “the Thousand Year Reich”.
[4] Matthew 24:22
[5] Luke 8:31
[6] Revelation 11:7 and 13:1
[7] Revelation 9:1-11
[8] It should be remembered that, as discussed in the commentary section, the “battle” for Jerusalem never really gets started. The Antichrist gathers his armies in the north of Israel, but before he can make much progress against the city itself, Christ returns.
