DANIEL’S PROPHECY OF T H E | SEVENTY WEEKS [Continued from p ag e 180] ing that “if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out” (vs. 39, 40). Certainly something was happen­ ing here that had never happened before. But most important of all, we have from the lips of Christ Himself an estimate of the unparalleled importance of that day and what He was doing. Weeping over the city, because He knew in advance the cer­ tainty of His rejection, He laments, “If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes” (v. 42). What “day”? Why, the day God had fixed in Daniel’s prophecy, the day that belonged to Israel, the day on which their Messiah would manifest Him­ self as the “Prince,” the exact 173,880th day of the prophecy! And what were “the things” belonging to their peace? They are the identical "things” named in verse 24 of the prophecy of the Seventy Weeks, those marvelous blessings promised to Israel by that God who never breaks a covenant. But now for a time all these "things” are to be hid from the eyes of the nation, their enemies will prevail over them, and the city will be once more destroyed. But why? And the answer is tragic but just: “ Because thou knewest not THE T IM E O F THY V ISITAT ION “ (v. 44). Thus the 173,880 days of the first Sixty- Nine Weeks ran their course to the very day-—deep and abiding encouragement to all who love the Lord and His precious Word of prophecy. And I close this dis­ cussion with but one remark: The exact fulfillment of this one prophecy is sufficient to demonstrate the accuracy of Daniel, and also by implication the inspiration of the Bible and the truth of Christianity. Only G od can speak “declaring the end from the beginning" and can forecast to thé very day “things that are not yet done" (Isa. 46:10). [T o b e Continued] BEFORE YOU MARRY [Continued from page 178] band except as infinite mercy may reach his heart and draw him to the Lord. Yes, he has had occasion to know many times that I feel a hunger for spiritual com­ panionship, but he thinks he is so much ahead of many husbands whom we know that I should be thankful. I am sure that the hurt of parting even after our engage­ ment would have been small compared to the hurt of trying to adjust two divergent souls to a common interest, each one hiding his deepest longings lest the expression of them bring up discussion u n c o v e r i n g wounds that are trying to heal. Indeed, I know there is grace to take me through to the eternal city, but my influ­ ence with young people has been hindered greatly by my example in disobeying the command about unequal yoking together. And my opportunity to serve the Lord is limited continually by the need of being fair to my husband’s right to have his share of happiness and choices. There is continually the problem of how I am to be consistent in my loyalty to my husband and to my Lord. Before you marry— stop and think!
