Seals of the Scroll

God’s Judgment

Leading to His Wrath

is in its beginning stages.

The first seals of the scroll, which is the Deed to the Earth, seem to have already been broken by Jesus Christ from God’s Throne Room in Heaven…

. . . releasing the first two or three horsemen of the apocalypse.

The First Seal

14.0 See the Glory of God, Beyond the Veil

He’s the ‘little horn,’ future antichrist, as he’s emerging, before he displaces the three horns/kings of Daniel 7:8.

In this special case, the white horse is thought to represent ‘false peace’ but in the ancient world, a white horse represented conquering victory. Since this rider carries no arrow for his bow, he conquers by diplomacy and deceptive strategy, most likely presenting himself as a sheep, when he’s really a wolf. He’s the ultimate crafty user of deception with both subtle and blatant, seduction, bribery, propaganda, flattery, threats and so much more. Those techniques themselves are a type of sorcery, but this rider also represents much darker occult practices.

We know this because these are among the techniques used by his foreshadower, Antiochus IV Epiphanes, who’s called a ‘king of the North’ in a series of ‘kings of the North’ described in Daniel 11:21-24. He’s is the only character in the Bible specifically labeled as a despicable man. Although he was the king of the Seleucids, according to Daniel 11, he was not treated with honor.

And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honor of royalty: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries. Daniel 11:21

Who did Antiochus Epiphanes most likely foreshadow?

He may’ve foreshadowed the Antichrist and the final ‘King of the North’ of Daniel 11. They’re very similar in character. I speculate that the final ‘King of the North’ will likely be Gog-the-Antichrist’s right hand man. Gog, the chief prince of Magog, is one of the titles of the Antichrist, and Magog is described in Genesis as the dominant tribe of Japheth; As such, Magog often represents all of Japheth (the Caucasians).

A little background . . After the Tower of Babel, Magog spread the farthest and widest conquering other nations. Since the Antichrist: will be the chief ruler of the whole world, he must also take part in fulfilling all the end time prophesies centered on Jerusalem.

And he will pitch the tents of his royal pavilion between the seas and the beautiful Holy Mountain; yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him. (Daniel 11:45)

It’s 49 miles from Gaza to Jerusalem and about 58.7 miles from Jabalia, Gaza to the Dead Sea.

Jared Kushner’s Project Sunrise plan for Gaza. Hmmm Can’t make this stuff up!

I don’t see how the King of the North character could also be the Antichrist, since the Antichrist is of Magog and no powerful enemy nation to the north, recorded in the Bible, has been Caucasian since the Balaam Balak episode. Russia’s not mentioned. For details see:

The First Seal

Has Jesus Christ already broken the first seal?

The relatively quiet events under the first seal makes the particular year in which Jesus Christ broke it less obvious; The historical credentials bolstering the white horse rider’s station may have taken satan centuries to build up. God allowed it, but Jesus Christ has been ‘holding the reigns’ at just the right level, not releasing the first seal restrainer, until the perfect moment according to His perfect plan.

Sept. 17, 2023, may be the very day the Lamb of God broke the first seal of the scroll:

I’ve written in other posts about why I call that day the ‘Midnight Cry Portent,’ which happened 6 months before the start of the 70th week of Daniel, according to my calculations.

14.2 Deed, Glory God Beyond

The actual event was announced with trumpet blasts, as it happened immediately following the 2023 Yom Teruah/Feast of Trumpets. The event was the Sustained Development Goals 2030 Agenda. Unfortunately, this is its logo: The agenda was a powerful strengthening, for 7 more years, of a prior 7 year international agreement, which is why it garnered so much attention from watchers. It may have even awakened some other Christians from their slumber, because it perfectly matched the Daniel 9:27 prophesy, as it appears in most translations today, which are derived from the Masoretic text. So, it did serve the purpose of a major HEADS UP.

Why its logo is offensive . . .The sign of the first covenant God ever made with mankind and Earth is the rainbow.

Counting from that day brings a large swath of the end time Biblical calendar together, but it’s not the event that begins the first year of the final week of years of this age.

Genesis 9: 13-15

I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth. And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

The 7 rings represent the 7 continents coming together for one purpose. The rebellion of mankind at Babel was when all humanity came together for the purpose of reaching heaven without God.

Still skeptical? This is the center peace for the Winter Olympics in Milan. They called it the cauldron.

The Second Seal

When Jesus Christ breaks the second seal, He releases the red horse, who’s rider is either an angel, like the horsemen in the Zechariah 1, or a spirit being represented symbolically. (Zechariah 6, describes 4 chariots being driven by many horses of the same colors or coats as those in Zech. 1, which are said to be ‘the four spirits of God’.)

Although the Holy Spirit in His completion, is seven fold, He can work in other divisions, as He’s able to work through the great multitude of saints on Earth. And, he can restrain in other ways, not just through the saints.

The rider of the red horse carries a sword and removes peace from Earth.

Since God’s prophesies are Jerusalem-centric I think the most relevant removal of peace on Earth was the Hamas brutal attack on Israel at the Nova Concert on Oct. 7, 2023, which killed over 1,200 people, torturing many of them, even children, in ways that are actually unspeakable, due to their supernatural hate. That part has been completely hidden from most of the public, including those who only watches mainstream news outlets. And it happened just 21 days after Yom Teruah 2023 (Feast of Trumpets 2023).

’21’

is one of the most highly symbolic numbers in the Bible, even regarding time.

’21’ is the number of God in His triune nature: 3 x 7 .

14.6 Deed, Glory God Beyond

21 days before the Hamas massacre, Oct. 2, 2024 the UN Pact for the Future was signed by 193 nations giving the UN unprecedented power. (See: mainly post 3, but also posts 5, 6 & 8.)

Overview: Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse

The only person in the universe worthy to break the seals on the scroll of the Deed to the Earth is Jesus Christ the Lamb of God. As Jesus Christ breaks the first, second, and third seals, their effects pile up and compound when He breaks the fourth seal:

Jesus Christ holds the reigns.

I think removing His bride is the indirect way in which the Lamb of God will bring about the removal of the one nation on Earth who’s now holding back the Beast System. That of course, is the United States.

14.8 Deed, Glory God Beyond

A portion of the church will depart upward

the rest are already departing downward –

the two sides of the the apostasy:

Only the United States of America has been holding back the World Bank Digital Currency

For you are fully aware that the Day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. While people are saying, “Peace and security,” destruction will come upon them suddenly, like labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. But you, brothers, are not in the darkness so that this day should overtake you like a thief. (1 Thess. 2-4)

January 23 ’26, Important Update: The Board of Peace was ratified at Davos.

When Jesus Christ harvests His bride, the portion of the Holy Spirit who resides in her will be removed from the world, including from the USA. But, it’s been the United States of America, that has been the most truly Christ following nation in recent centuries, evidenced by the fact that, even with the currently falling away, but not completely ‘fallen’ state of Jesus Christ‘s church in America, it was the only powerful nation that stood for Israel.

Now, although the US may still bomb Iran, with the latest international force taking over Gaza, and requiring Israel to give back the part they’d conquered at great cost, which is still God’s land, I can’t say that America is really standing for Israel. In fact, since America’s leading the non Israeli control of that land: WOE to America. God will bring judgment.

Revelation’s Silence About America Isn’t an Accident—It’s a Prophetic Clue

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSfX40wDMqw&t=688s

I’m saying the Holy Spirit is the restrainer, and He partially works through the Church of Christ. But how His removal along with the bride-of-Christ will effect the world, will disproportionately be effected through how the USA responds. When the church is gone the Luciferian false light will take over.

I’ve long thought that God’s final week of years would begin before the actual ‘great tribulation’. And it appears to be so. I think it’s turning out that the final week-of-years began about 21 months before the ‘sudden destruction’ will begin. Then, only after the tribulation saints are safely in God’s throne room, the GREATEST tribulation, which is GOD’S WRATH will begin.

In other words, as I understand it, the great tribulation will begin immediately when Jesus Christ harvests His bride. The temple will goes up soon after the great tribulation begins, and probably about 14 months after that, the greatest tribulation will begin, seemingly no later than Oct. 1, 2027. It fits the timeline. See:

4. The Countdown.

https://alephtav.blog/2024/08/31/4-last7yrs/

14.9 Deed, Glory God Beyond

I’m not saying that the bride of Jesus Christ, who will be removed from the whole Earth, only comes from America!

I’m only saying that when Jesus Christ harvests His bride, the greatest effect it will have on the world, will be to put and end to the restraining power of the United States to hold back a major part of the Beast System. After the bride is removed, the USA will likely fall deeply into the Beast System. I think shocked and horrified, formerly nominal Christians, will make up the bulk of the 5th seal martyrs and hopefully, 6th seal tribulation saints will include many people who never thought in a million years that they’d ever become a follower of Jesus Christ. I used to be one of those. Glory to Jesus Christ the miracle worker, promise keeper, light in the darkness! Amen.

I think the Holy Spirit will continue to indwell new saints on Earth after Jesus Christ rescues His bride, including the 144,000, the Two Witnesses and all new believers, but His power will be expressed differently, without a unified nation or established church congregations to work through.

14.10 Deed, Glory God Beyond

The Third Seal

The fourth seal may not have yet been broken by the Lamb of God, but I think the 3rd seal has.

It isn’t written that when Jesus Christ breaks a seal, that the full force of it happens all at once. It probably means that things begin moving in the direction toward the prophesied outcome.

14.11 Deed, Glory God Beyond

As with the rider of the red horse, the rider of the black horse is also either an angel or a spirit represented by a symbolic entity.

The Fourth Seal

Then the rider on the green, ashen (or dappled ^_Septuagint) horse, will bring death to 1/4th of humanity by the sword ^_(war), famine, plague and the wild beasts of the earth.

After that, many martyrs are seen under God Almighty’s throne in heaven crying out for justice, the 144,000 are given their protective seals and are assigned to remain on Earth, presumably to help the lost Jews, and the uncountable number of saints who come out of the great tribulation are seen standing in God’s throne room singing joyful songs of praise, wearing pristine white linen and waving palm branches.

14.12 Deed, Glory God Beyond

By this time, if the Antichrist has not yet been revealed, it’s certainly time.

Is the The Prince Who is to Come referred to by Daniel, the Antichrist/Beast?

Watchers have been keeping their eyes peeled for ‘the prince who is to come’ (Dan. 9:27). Sometimes I think he’s probably the Antichrist/Beast, but I have reservations. Why?

Many Bible teachers think, based on 2 Thess. 2:3, that we can’t know who the Antichrist/Beast is until he sits in the temple of God, declaring himself to be God. If so, then it’s unclear how the ‘prince who is to come’ could be the Antichrist/Beast.

14.13 Deed, Glory God Beyond

2 Thess. 2: 1-4 ^_BLB

Now we implore you, brothers, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together unto Him, for you not quickly to be shaken in mind, nor to be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as if by us, as that the Day of the Lord is present. No one should deceive you in any way, because it is not until the apostasy shall have come first, and the man of lawlessness shall have been revealed—the son of destruction, the one opposing and exalting himself above every so-called god or object of worship—so as for him to sit down in the temple of God, setting forth that he himself is God.

But, the ‘prince who is to come’ must be prophetically active years before that in order to get the temple of God built. So maybe the phrase in 2-Thess.2:4 is merely describing the defining act that the Beast will do, without intending it to be interpreted to mean that absolutely no one will know who he is until the moment he sits in the temple.

Many Jews will align with ‘the prince’ because he’ll facilitate the the building of the 3rd temple and therefore the return of the Old Covenant; It does seem like this prince is the one Jesus warned us about, the one who the Jews will accept as their Messiah despite the fact that he comes in his own name. But, if they’re the same man, then awake Christians would have to know he’s the Antichrist before he sits in the temple!

Trump?

May believers think it’ll be Trump because of the Cyrus coin and how he loves to build things and to think of himself as king; and because he has lot of support in Israel and observes Hanukkah instead of Christmas in the White House. But, the white horseman of the apocalypse is shown under the first seal to have no arrow for his bow. Trump has already bombed Iran and he’s been pointing nukes toward Russia. He captured a Russian oil tanker, the Venezuelan president, and now he’s threatening Mexico and Columbia. So that’s a problem, unless we assume we’re past the white horse phase.

Feb. 7 ’26 Update: The USS Abraham Lincoln nuclear capable air craft carrier has moved near to Tehran. The talks in Oman have failed and news such as MSN headlines read: US Iran war: US nuclear warship to attack Iran any moment now? USS Abraham Lincoln moves near Tehran.

I don’t usually talk about predictive programming on this site; But since it was absolutely correct predicting the World Trade Center towers coming down on 9:11, and tomorrow’s Feb.8 ’26 is a programmed date, it seems to possible that there will be something that will happen akin to a second 9:11, in the sense that it will be a very bad day for America. So I’m providing the following explanatory link – it could be a trick, a decoy or it could be real again.

FOLLOW THE WHITE RABBIT – FINAL WARNING TO FEBRUARY 8, 2026 SUPER BOWL 60

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cfm9uX4jONo

14.14 Deed, Glory God Beyond

So, the USS Abraham Lincoln might sink on Feb. 8, 2026.

If so, that’ll likely lead to something nuclear and the bride of Christ will go up on one of those days; Then together, all these things, will trigger the New World Order to snap into place, including the actions of the ‘prince who is to come.’ He’ll step up to get the third temple of God built.

What if the true white horseman/false messiah is in the background, quietly and persistently continuing to carefully and discretely position his chess pieces, maybe even secretly manipulating Trump, or someone else to be the most visible person involved with the temple rebuilding. If so, what if the New Sanhedrin already knows who’s really behind it; someone who has ancestral Messianic qualifications, in their eyes. If so, it’d be easy to keep most of the world in the dark with AI generating false news images like they were doing with the false starvation campaign in Gaza.

Note: According to the Masoretic text, (Theodotian based) the prince-who-is-to-come will clearly confirm a covenant. By comparison, in the Old Greek text, the prince is certainly aligned with The Covenant- The Mosaic Covenant. It seems that there may be a document, but, his initial role isn’t as clear. Not even after reading 4 translations in the Old Greek. (Which is only available in a few Septuagints)

I’m not sure if the bride of Christ will be able to figure out who he is definitively as we will be gone soon. But, I wrote a whole post about it. There is one astonishing candidate:

14.The Scarlet Beast

https://alephtav.blog/2024/08/20/14-beast/

14.15 Deed, Glory God Beyond

Daniel 70th Week – The Final 7 Years.

The 70th-Week is a seven year period ending with a Jubilee-Sabbath year.

The 70th-Week is set apart from the prior 69 weeks by a 2,000 yr. ‘gap’ or ‘time out.’

The ‘gap’ was placed by God Almighty within the 69th and 70th weeks of the Daniel 9:24 prophesy.

Most Christians call the gap ‘The Church Age.’ It began the year after the Holy Spirit anointed Jesus Christ the Jewish Messiah, the Son of God, our eternal Lord, and is usually thought to conclude when the first year of Daniel’s 70th-Week begins.

I think that’s over simplified, and that the Church Age actually ends when Christ gathers His bride, probably about 21 months into the final 7 years, immediately before the ‘great tribulation’ begins (not God’s wrath).

14.16 Deed, Glory God Beyond

My take on the Church Age is that it ends sometime in the beginning of the 70th week of Daniel, just before the massive death toll begins.

Jesus strongly implied He’d tarry. So this a highly motivational time for Christ’s mature bride; She has work to do for those who are at risk of being left behind. And, perhaps it’s also a test of perseverance to see who’s really truly His bride. There’s a whole lot of evidence that the final week has begun and that we’re deep into the tarry now. And most importantly, the Bible never actually says that the Church is removed before Daniel’s 70th week! See post:

Watch for Jesus Christ

https://alephtav.blog/2024/09/04/a-watchjesus/

The purpose of the final week-of-years before the Millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ begins:

Assigned by God, it’s for the bringing about of the consummation of His awesome plan!

Only the translations that were ultimately based on the Theodotion redaction of the Book of Daniel, such as the Masoretic Text (which has no underlying source document) make it appear definitive that the final seven years begin the exact moment a particular agreement is signed.

14.17 Deed, Glory God Beyond

That’s why it’s important to know what the Old Greek says:

Old Greek Daniel 9:27

Many will support a ruler/prince who will bring back to life (Mosaic Covenant) rebuilt with length and width according to end time standards after 7 x 70 appointed times (Shmita cycles) also with 62 clansmen (temple guards). Until at the right moment for the consummation of joint sin debt payment, war will be against it, attempting to desertify it. The covenant will be greatly prevailed upon after many weeks. By the time the ‘weeks’ will be taken away, sacrifice, libation and the great sacred thing, it (the Mosaic Covenant) will have reached its perfect/fulfillment. Abomination causing desolation will exist until a joint sin debt payment for public burdens is given – great desertification.

That’s my translation. For the Old Greek itself and my earlier attempts click:

https://alephtav.blog/daniel-9-full-og/

14.21 Deed, Glory God Beyond

The final 7 years don’t have to begin with the agreement . . .

To keep it short, we shouldn’t use the Masoretic Daniel 9:27 passage as the main foundation piece upon which to put together all the other pieces of our end times prophetic puzzle! The seven year countdown seems to have already begun according to my extensive research.

See post: ΑΩ. Aleph Tav Christ’s Sign!

https://alephtav.blog/2024/09/04/alephtav-sign/

Then see how that fits into:

4. The Countdown.

https://alephtav.blog/2024/09/04/alephtav-sign/

I think Jesus Christ breaks the first four seals only to allow forces of worldliness/lawlessness and their natural consequences to progress; What I mean is that they’re not the same as when God expresses His personal wrath onto Earth. So, as mentioned above, I call the last 3.5 years of Daniel’s 70th week the GREATEST tribulation. The first four seals seem to set the stage for the Beast system – the greatest deception/delusion and temptation of all time.

14.22 Deed, Glory God Beyond

Recap: The 5th seal reveals the martyrs; The sixth seal reveals the tribulation saints, then . . .

“Then the kings of the earth and the great ones and the generals and the rich and the powerful, and everyone, slave and free, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains, calling to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who is seated on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb, for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?”

Revelation 6:15-17

14.23 Deed, Glory God Beyond

It sounds clear that that’s the announcement of the beginning of the first wave of God’s Wrath, which is synonymous with the Day of the Lord!

14.24 Deed, Glory God Beyond

So, in what order do things happens after Jesus Christ breaks the sixth seal?

At the sixth seal, the One-Seated-on-the-Throne and the Lamb are seen up in the heavens by all the terrified unrepentant sinners on Earth as they go through a monumental earthquake combined with terrifying events in the cosmos. Then 144,000 servants of God, from 12 tribes of Jacob, are each given the ‘seal of the living God’ on their foreheads by angels, in order that they may remain unharmed on Earth for awhile longer. Finally an uncountable number of saints, that are said to have come out of the great tribulation, are seen by St. John, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, praising God in heaven!

WRATH – The 7th Seal Releases God’s Trumpet Judgements

14.25 Deed, Glory God Beyond

Seemingly one right after another- the first four trumpets are directed against vegetation, water, marine animals, and the lights in the cosmos. The fifth trumpet gets personal, the abyss is unlocked and opened – demonic locusts come out and attack everybody on earth, except the 144,000 sealed servants of God. Then, after the sixth trumpet 1/3 of humanity, whatever is left of it, is killed by a supernatural evil army led by three unnamed fallen angels that have been released from chains. Throughout the first six trumpets, the main Body of Christ was already gone, and nobody else repented!

One thing I’m leading into trying to show is why it seems extremely unlikely that the abomination of desolation setup event will occur before or at the Sixth Seal . . .

Then, it Gets Interesting:

The parenthetical section between Rev. chap. 9 & 11, before the final trumpet:

In the Book of Revelation, this is the first mention of Jerusalem and the Temple. It’s full of important characters including the Two Witnesses, the Beast coming up from the abyss, satan, the religious Jews and the gentiles.

14.26 Deed, Glory God Beyond

In St. John’s visit to God’s throne room, he was told about the Two Witnesses who will minister to the world with great Holy Spirit power to control forces on Earth. Then they’ll be murdered in the streets of Jerusalem by the Beast after the it emerges from the abyss, where presumably it becomes possessed by satan. The world celebrates. St. John saw the bodies of the Two Witnesses get resurrected and raptured to heaven 3.5 days after their deaths. A great earthquake immediately following that, collapses a tenth of Jerusalem. The people in Jerusalem who remain alive, become terrified and give Glory to the God of heaven! Many Jews flee Jerusalem to the safe place God prepared for them. They only could’ve know about the safe place from Jesus’ Olivet Discourse.

The elimination of the Two Witnesses and their Holy Spirit powers, must be what makes the temple of God accessible to the Beast.

But, this part of the timing of Daniel’s 70th week is tricky. I examine it at the bottom of:

4,The Countdown

https://alephtav.blog/2024/08/31/4-last7yrs/

14.27 Deed, Glory God Beyond

The Kingdom of the World has become the Kingdom of our Lord!

The Seventh Trumpet
Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever.”  And the twenty-four elders who sit on their thrones before God fell on their faces and worshiped God,  saying,
“We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty,
who is and who was,
for you have taken your great power
and begun to reign.
  The nations raged,
but your wrath came,
and the time for the dead to be judged,
and for rewarding your servants, the prophets and saints,
and those who fear your name,
both small and great,
and for destroying the destroyers of the earth.”

Rev. 11: 15-18

14.28 Deed, Glory God Beyond

Yay – Peals rumbles flashes a great earthquake and a great hailstorm! Hallelujah! Back on Earth, the False Prophet is now introduced. The Beast, is seen again, but this time, he’s seen to be raising up from the sea (representing that many peoples support him). And he’s enraged against the people of Jacob/Israel who’d just fled to the mountains where God has prepared a safe place for them, for 1,260 days.

Back to: Might it have been Jesus Christ’s intention to . . .

14.29 Deed, Glory God Beyond

frustrate the understanding of rapture timing using Matthew 24 and Mark 17?

The Mystery and Jesus’ Intention

Was it because He didn’t want to fully expose His plan to rescue His bride to jealous satan, at least until after He defeated death and won the decisive battle?

Don’t be too surprised by this, remember what Jesus intentionally did by speaking in parables!

This page explains it in detail:

https://alephtav.blog/parables/

And there are some good ideas about it here:

14.30 Deed, Glory God Beyond

Here’s an extremely condensed useful glimpse of this concept:

https://gracethrufaith.com/ask-a-bible-teacher/paul-and-the-rapture/

St. Paul played the key role in revealing ‘The Mystery of Christ’

14.31 Deed, Glory God Beyond

St. Paul wrote in Ephesians 3:3 “that is, the mystery made known to me by revelation, as I have already written briefly. In reading this then, you’ll be able to understand my insight into the ‘mystery of Christ,’ which was not made known to people in other generations as it has now (after Christ’s ascension) having been revealed by the Spirit to God’s holy apostles and prophets. “

There are more powerful supporting verses in Ephesians, but . . .

I’m not in any rush to write those out, because the lead pastor, Pastor Matt at Bethel Grove Bible Church just covered this about St. Paul, very well. I can’t do better right now. Here’s his sermon: Life Against Darkness

https://bg.org/bgsermons/life-against-darkness-read/

If that doesn’t work, try You Tube:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ay7q0jf1qY

Recapping, clarifying and another detail:

14.32 Deed, Glory God Beyond

As mentioned above, the apostles were recorded as having been mistaken in assuming that second coming was going to happen in their lifetimes; None of them had received the Holy Spirit by the time that Jesus gave His Olivet Discourse. None of them were able to understand certain things, such as what Jesus meant when he said “Destroy this temple and I will rebuild it in three days.” Only Andrew, John, James and Peter were actually present at the Olivet discourse and so Matthew, Mark and Luke seem to have received it by word of mouth.

I’m putting forth the possibility that Jesus knew their limitations and knew that the information He spoke to them in the Olivet Discourse would overwhelm them, but that it would nevertheless be written down, and would provide to the world the overarching order of things. But to the Jews, it would also provide the necessary warnings that apply specifically to them.
