It has been a long process for me to get to this point in the study of Panium, and the title “Eleven, Eleven” is meant to emphasize that the Lion of the tribe of Judah coordinated both the book of Daniel and the book of Revelation to set forth the internal and external lines of the history of the sealing of God’s people in the eleventh chapter and eleventh verse. Just before probation closes a command to unseal the prophecy in Revelation that was sealed until the time when the internal and external prophetic histories represented by the two lines of eleven—eleven, found in the books of Daniel and Revelation became present truth.

我喺研讀 Panium 呢個課題上,經歷咗一段漫長嘅過程,先至去到而家呢一步;而「十一,十一」呢個題目,乃係要強調,猶大支派嘅獅子協調咗《但以理書》同《啟示錄》兩卷書,以喺第十一章同第十一節陳明上帝子民受印歷史嘅內部同外部路線。就喺恩門關閉之前不久,有一道命令,要將《啟示錄》中嗰預言揭開;呢個預言一直被封住,直到《但以理書》同《啟示錄》中以兩條十一——十一所代表嘅內部同外部預言歷史,成為現代真理嘅時候。

And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand. He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. Revelation 22:10, 11.

他又對我說:「不可封了這書上預言的話,因為時候近了。不義的,任他仍舊不義;污穢的,任他仍舊污穢;為義的,任他仍舊為義;聖潔的,任他仍舊聖潔。」啟示錄 22:10, 11。

The “time is at hand” just before the close of probation, and the “time is at hand” when the “Revelation of Jesus Christ” is unsealed.

喺恩典時期結束之前,「時候近了」;而當「耶穌基督的啟示」被揭開之時,「時候近了」。

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. Revelation 1:1–3.

耶穌基督的啟示,就是神賜給祂,叫祂將那必要快快成就的事指示祂的眾僕人;祂就差遣使者,曉諭祂的僕人約翰。約翰將神的道,和耶穌基督的見證,凡自己所看見的,都作了見證。念這預言上的話的,和那些聽見又遵守其中所記載的,都是有福的;因為日期近了。啟示錄 1:1–3

When the Lion of the tribe of Judah unseals the “Revelation of Jesus Christ” as He has been doing since the arrival of the message of the Midnight Cry in July of 2023, that unsealing includes the revelation that He is “Palmoni,” the Wonderful Numberer, or the Numberer of Secrets. Failure to accept this truth is to fail the testing process which seals the one hundred and forty-four thousand.

當猶大支派中的獅子,自二〇二三年七月午夜呼聲嘅信息臨到以來,正如祂一直所行嘅那樣,揭開「耶穌基督的啟示」嘅印封之時,呢個揭印亦包括啟示出:祂就是「Palmoni」,那位奇妙的數算者,或奧祕的數算者。不接受呢個真理,就係未能通過嗰個為十四萬四千人施行印記嘅考驗過程。

I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire. Matthew 3:11, 12.

我實在係用水替你哋施洗,叫你哋悔改;但嗰位喺我之後嚟嘅,能力比我更大,我就連替佢攞鞋都唔配;佢要用聖靈與火替你哋施洗。佢手裏攞住簸箕,要徹底簸淨佢嘅禾場,把麥子收進倉裏;至於糠秕,佢要用不滅嘅火燒盡。馬太福音 3:11, 12。

“Just how soon this refining process will begin I cannot say, but it will not be long deferred. He whose fan is in His hand will cleanse His temple of its moral defilement. He will thoroughly purge His floor.” Testimonies to Ministers, 372, 373.

「呢一個煉淨嘅過程究竟幾快會開始,我不能說;但佢唔會拖延太久。那位手裡拿着簸箕的主,必潔淨祂的殿,除去其中道德上的污穢。祂必徹底揚淨祂的禾場。」《給傳道人的證言》,372、373。

The lines of prophecy which identify the time of the sealing as a prophetic testing process are more than abundant. It is clear that the testing process is based upon the students aptitude and ability to apply the correct or incorrect methodology for studying God’s prophetic Word. This truth is also abundantly set forth within the inspired record.

指出封印時期乃一個先知性試驗過程的預言脈絡,多得不勝枚舉。顯然,這試驗過程乃建立於學道者是否具備足夠的悟性與能力,去運用正確或錯誤的方法來研讀上帝先知性的聖言。這真理在受默示的記錄之中,同樣亦已極其充分地闡明。

As for these four children, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams. Now at the end of the days that the king had said he should bring them in, then the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar. And the king communed with them; and among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: therefore stood they before the king. And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king enquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm. Daniel 1:17–20.

至於呢四個孩子,神賜畀佢哋喺各樣學問同智慧上都有知識同聰明;但以理又明白各樣異象同夢兆。到咗王所定要帶佢哋進見嘅日期滿了,太監長就帶佢哋到尼布甲尼撒面前。王同佢哋談論;喺佢哋眾人之中,冇一個能比但以理、哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亞撒利雅,因此佢哋就侍立喺王面前。王所查問佢哋一切智慧聰明嘅事,就見佢哋比通國所有術士同用法術嘅勝過十倍。〈但以理書〉1:17–20。

A premier rule of prophetic interpretation is that truth is established upon the testimony of two, and those who fail to have confidence in the principle are setting themselves up for failure. An element of the testing process during the sealing time, involves the recognition of the connection of the internal and external histories represented in chapter eleven and verse eleven by Daniel and John.

先知預言詮釋嘅首要原則之一,係真理乃憑兩個見證而得以確立;凡對此原則缺乏信心嘅人,乃係為自己設下失敗嘅局面。印記時期之考驗過程嘅其中一個要素,係要辨認由但以理同約翰喺第十一章同第十一節所代表之內部與外部歷史之間嘅聯繫。

“Revelation is a sealed book, but it is also an opened book. It records marvelous events that are to take place in the last days of this earth’s history. The teachings of this book are definite, not mystical and unintelligible. In it the same line of prophecy is taken up as in Daniel. Some prophecies God has repeated, thus showing that importance must be given to them. The Lord does not repeat things that are of no great consequence.” Manuscript Releases, volume 9, 8.

「《啟示錄》係一卷封住咗嘅書,但同時亦係一卷打開咗嘅書。佢記載咗喺呢個地球歷史最後日子將要發生嘅奇妙大事。呢卷書嘅教訓係明確嘅,並非神秘莫測、難以明白。喺其中,所採用嘅乃係同《但以理書》一樣嘅預言脈絡。有啲預言,上帝曾經重複述說,藉此表明必須賦予佢哋重要性。主唔會重複嗰啲並無重大關係嘅事。」《文稿發表》,第9卷,8頁。

The books of Daniel and Revelation represent two witnesses, and the one hundred and forty-four thousand are represented as two witnesses in Revelation chapter eleven. In verse eleven of the chapter the two witnesses, represented by Elijah and Moses are resurrected as typified by both John in the boiling oil and Daniel in the lion’s den. The one hundred and forty-four thousand are represented by Daniel and John, and also by Elijah and Moses. To succeed in the testing process which produces the one hundred and forty-four thousand a student must understand that truth is established upon two witnesses, and that the books of Daniel and Revelation represent two witnesses, and that the one hundred and forty-four thousand have been typified as Elijah and Moses and also Daniel and John.

《但以理書》同《啟示錄》代表兩個見證人,而那十四萬四千人在《啟示錄》第十一章中亦被表述為兩個見證人。於該章第十一節,這兩個見證人——由以利亞同摩西所代表——復活了,正如約翰在滾油之中,以及但以理在獅子坑中所預表的一樣。那十四萬四千人由但以理同約翰所代表,亦由以利亞同摩西所代表。若要在產生那十四萬四千人的考驗過程中得以成功,學生必須明白:真理乃建立在兩個見證人之上;《但以理書》同《啟示錄》代表兩個見證人;而那十四萬四千人已被預表為以利亞同摩西,亦為但以理同約翰。

These truths are only a brief sampling of prophetic truths associated with the internal and external history represented by “eleven, eleven” in both Daniel and Revelation. As Palmoni, Christ guided in the alignment of the two passages, and also that eleven, plus eleven equals twenty-two, which in turn is a tithe or tenth of two hundred and twenty, which is a symbol of the combination of divinity with humanity. Palmoni established upon more than two witnesses that “two hundred and twenty” represents the combination of divinity and humanity, which is in turn a description of the incarnation of Christ when He took upon Himself fallen flesh. In doing so He set forth the example for mankind that if they are willing to meet the requirements of the gospel, Christ is willing to combine His divinity with our humanity. Divinity and humanity are therefore two witnesses.

呢啲真理,只不過係與但以理書同啟示錄之中由「十一、十一」所表徵嘅內部同外部歷史相關之預言真理嘅一個簡略撮要。作為帕勒摩尼,基督引導咗呢兩段經文嘅對齊;並且,十一加十一等於二十二,而二十二又係二百二十嘅十分之一;二百二十乃係神性與人性結合嘅象徵。帕勒摩尼藉着唔止兩個見證,確立咗「二百二十」乃代表神性與人性嘅結合;而呢一點,反過來亦正係對基督道成肉身嘅描述——當祂親自取咗墮落嘅肉身之時。祂咁樣做,就為人類立下榜樣:如果佢哋願意符合福音嘅要求,基督就願意將祂嘅神性與我哋嘅人性結合。因此,神性與人性就係兩個見證。

The “Revelation of Jesus Christ” that opened up just before probation closes includes that Jesus is the “Word” of God.

喺恩門關閉之前啱啱展開嘅「耶穌基督嘅啟示」,包括咗耶穌乃係上帝嘅「道」。

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. John 1:1–5.

太初有道,道與神同在,道就是神。這道太初與神同在。萬物是藉着他造的;凡被造的,沒有一樣不是藉着他造的。生命在他裏頭;這生命就是人的光。光照在黑暗裏;黑暗卻不領悟這光。約翰福音 1:1–5。

The Bible is the “Word” of God which, just as Christ represents the combination of divinity with humanity. The Bible represents the two witnesses of the Old and New Testaments, who are also Moses and Elijah in Revelation chapter eleven.

聖經乃是上帝的「道」,正如基督代表神性與人性的結合;聖經則代表舊約與新約這兩個見證人,而他們亦即是《啟示錄》第十一章中的摩西與以利亞。

“Concerning the two witnesses the prophet declares further: ‘These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.’ ‘Thy word,’ said the psalmist, ‘is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.’ Revelation 11:4; Psalm 119:105. The two witnesses represent the Scriptures of the Old and the New Testament.” The Great Controversy, 267.

關於那兩個見證人,先知進一步宣告說:「這是那兩棵橄欖樹,和那兩個燈臺,站在全地之神面前。」詩人說:「你的話是我腳前的燈,是我路上的光。」啟示錄 11:4;詩篇 119:105。這兩個見證人乃是代表舊約和新約的聖經。《善惡之爭》,267。

The two witnesses are the two olive trees, the two candlesticks and the Old and New Testaments, which is represented in the paragraph as “Thy word.” The “Revelation of Jesus Christ” that is unsealed by the Lion of the tribe of Judah just before the close of probation is “the final increase of knowledge” which tests those who are candidates to be one of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. The “final increase of knowledge” is also the message of the Midnight Cry in the parable of the ten virgins.

兩個見證人就是兩棵橄欖樹、兩個燭臺,以及舊約與新約;在該段落中,這乃是以「祢的話」來表徵。由猶大支派中的獅子在恩典時期結束之前不久所開啟、未再封住的「耶穌基督的啟示」,就是「最後一次知識的增增」,用以試驗那些有意成為十四萬四千人之一的候選者。「最後一次知識的增增」也就是十個童女比喻中半夜的呼聲之信息。

“‘Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof? And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves? And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord. Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth. Zechariah 4:11–14. These empty themselves into the golden bowls, which represent the hearts of the living messengers of God, who bear the Word of the Lord to the people in warnings and entreaties. The Word itself must be as represented, the golden oil, emptied from the two olive trees that stand by the Lord of the whole earth. This is the baptism by the Holy Spirit with fire. This will open the soul of unbelievers to conviction. The wants of the soul can be met only by the working of the Holy Spirit of God. Man can of himself do nothing to satisfy the longings and meet the aspirations of the heart.” The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, volume 4, 1180.

「我又回答他說:『這燈臺右邊同左邊呢兩棵橄欖樹係乜嘢?』我再回答他說:『經過兩條金管流出金油嘅呢兩枝橄欖枝係乜嘢?』他回答我說:『你唔知道呢啲係乜嘢嗎?』我說:『我主啊,我唔知道。』他就說:『呢兩個受膏者,係侍立喺全地之主旁邊嘅。』撒迦利亞書 4:11–14。呢兩個受膏者將自己傾注入金碗之中;金碗係代表上帝活嘅使者嘅心,佢哋將主嘅道藉着警告同懇求傳畀百姓。道本身必須正如所表徵嘅一樣,乃係由侍立喺全地之主旁邊嘅兩棵橄欖樹所流出嘅金油。呢個就係聖靈與火嘅洗。呢個要使不信之人嘅心靈向知罪敞開。心靈嘅需要,惟有藉着上帝聖靈嘅運行先可以得着滿足。人靠自己,絲毫不能滿足內心嘅渴望,同應付心中嘅嚮往。」《基督復臨安息日會聖經註釋》卷四,1180。

The Word of God is both the Bible and Christ, and the Bible and Christ represent two witnesses, as do the one hundred and forty-four thousand. The two witnesses in turn represent a combination of divinity with humanity. They also represent internal and external prophetic histories. As witnesses, they provided evidence that divinity combined with humanity does not sin. They also represent the connection between divinity and humanity. Whether a ladder, conduit, pipes, angels or any of the other symbols of the communication link between God and man, the message conveyed to man is always life or death.

上帝之道既是《聖經》,也是基督;而《聖經》與基督乃代表兩個見證人,正如那十四萬四千人一樣。這兩個見證人又代表神性與人性的結合;他們也代表內在與外在的先知性歷史。作為見證人,他們提供了證據,證明神性與人性結合並不犯罪。他們亦代表神性與人性之間的聯繫。無論是梯子、導管、管道、天使,或任何其他象徵上帝與人之間交通聯繫的記號,所傳達給人的信息,始終都是生命或死亡。

The anointed ones standing by the Lord of the whole earth, have the position once given to Satan as covering cherub. By the holy beings surrounding his throne, the Lord keeps up a constant communication with the inhabitants of the earth. The golden oil represents the grace with which God keeps the lamps of believers supplied, that they shall not flicker and go out. Were it not that this holy oil is poured from heaven in the messages of God’s Spirit, the agencies of evil would have entire control over men.

「侍立在全地之主旁邊的受膏者,所居之位,乃是昔日賜予撒但、作為遮掩約櫃之基路伯的地位。主藉着環繞祂寶座的聖潔眾生,與地上的居民保持不斷的交通。金油象徵上帝用以不斷供應信徒燈盞的恩典,使其不致閃爍而熄滅。若不是這聖油藉着上帝之靈的信息從天傾注下來,邪惡的勢力便要完全控制世人。」

“God is dishonored when we do not receive the communications which he sends us. Thus we refuse the golden oil which he would pour into our souls to be communicated to those in darkness. When the call shall come, ‘Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him,’ those who have not received the holy oil, who have not cherished the grace of Christ in their hearts, will find, like the foolish virgins, that they are not ready to meet their Lord. They have not, in themselves, the power to obtain the oil, and their lives are wrecked. But if God’s Holy Spirit is asked for, if we plead, as did Moses, ‘Show me thy glory,’ the love of God will be shed abroad in our hearts. Through the golden pipes, the golden oil will be communicated to us. ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith the Lord of Hosts.’ By receiving the bright beams of the Sun of Righteousness, God’s children shine as lights in the world.” Review and Herald, July 20, 1897.

當我哋唔領受上帝所差遣畀我哋嘅信息之時,上帝就受咗羞辱。咁樣,我哋就拒絕咗祂本欲傾注入我哋心靈之中、好叫再傳遞畀處於黑暗中之人嘅金油。及至呼召發出,話:「看哪,新郎來了;你們出去迎接他,」嗰啲冇領受聖油、冇喺心中珍藏基督恩典嘅人,就會好似愚拙嘅童女一樣,發覺自己並未預備好去迎見佢哋嘅主。佢哋本身並冇能力取得呢油,佢哋嘅生命就因此破敗。但若果人祈求上帝嘅聖靈,若果我哋如摩西一樣懇求話:「求你顯出你的榮耀給我看,」上帝嘅愛就會澆灌喺我哋心裏。藉着金管,金油就會傳送畀我哋。「不是倚靠勢力,不是倚靠才能,乃是倚靠我的靈,這是萬軍之耶和華說的。」藉着領受公義日頭嘅明亮光線,上帝嘅兒女就喺世上發光,如同明燈。――Review and Herald, July 20, 1897.

The outpouring of the Holy Spirit occurs during the internal and external histories marked by Daniel and Revelation 11:11. There are “at least” four prophetic characters represented in verses eleven and twelve of Daniel chapter eleven that need to be identified. There are also four that need to be identified in verses thirteen through fifteen, and four in verse sixteen. We are now living in that very history, so it behooves us, as students of prophecy to sort out who the symbolic characters of verses eleven through sixteen are, for they represent a line of prophecy that covers the hidden history of verse forty of the same chapter.

聖靈的澆灌,乃發生於但以理書及啟示錄十一章十一節所標示之內部與外部歷史當中。在但以理書第十一章第十一至十二節所呈現的預言裡,至少有四個預言性的角色需要加以辨識。第十三至十五節之中亦有四個需要辨識,而第十六節則另有四個。現今我們正活在這段歷史之中,因此,作為預言的研習者,我們實在有必要分辨第十一至十六節中的象徵性人物是誰,因為他們所代表的,乃是同章第四十節之隱藏歷史的一條預言線。

It also seems relevant to identify the personalities represented in the history of verse forty which has been unsealing since 1989.

自1989年以來一直被揭開印封嘅第四十節歷史中所代表嘅人物,似乎亦有需要加以辨明。

And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand. Daniel 12:9, 10.

佢對我話:「但以理啊,你只管去;因為呢啲話已經封閉、封印,直到末時。必有許多人被潔淨,變為潔白,且受熬煉;但惡人仍必行惡;一切惡人都不明白,惟獨智慧人必明白。」但以理書 12:9, 10.

Verse forty begins at the time of the end in 1798 with Napoleon of France taking the pope into captivity. Napoleon’s justification was based upon the broken Treaty of Tolentino in 1797. Napoleon and the pope’s battle had previously been typified in the history which fulfilled verses six and seven of Daniel chapter eleven. The broken marriage treaty and the defeat of the northern king by the southern king in fulfillment of verses six and seven were repeated in the history of 1798, and in doing so they represent the prediction of God’s Word in verses six and seven, and the fulfillment of those verses in the beginning of the warfare between Ptolemy Philadelphus, the second and king of Egypt, and Antiochus Theos, third king of Syria. Ptolemy represented the southern king and Antiochus represented the northern king.

第四十節開始於末時,即一七九八年,當時法國的拿破崙將教皇擄去囚禁。拿破崙所提出之理由,是基於一七九七年被破壞之《托倫蒂諾條約》。拿破崙與教皇之間的爭戰,先前已在那段應驗《但以理書》第十一章第六及第七節的歷史中,被作為預表。不論是那被破壞的婚約,還是南方王擊敗北方王,作為第六及第七節之應驗,都在一七九八年的歷史中重演;如此一來,這些事既代表了神話語在第六及第七節中的預言,也代表了那些經文在托勒密·非拉鐵弗——第二位埃及王——與安條古·提阿斯——第三位敘利亞王——之間戰爭開端時的應驗。托勒密代表南方王,安條古則代表北方王。

The prediction of the verses, brought together with the fulfillment of that prediction in the history of Ptolemy and Antiochus—which in turn typified and the history of Napoleon and the pope in 1798 provide three lines which typify the history of Putin and Zelenskyy in verses eleven and twelve. Thus, understanding that the time of the end in 1798 represents the history of Napoleon and the pope is incomplete if it ends there. We must understand what verses six and seven predict about Napoleon and the pope, and also what the history of Ptolemy and Antiochus teaches of that same period. When we understand those lines of truth, we may then understand that those previous historical fulfillments are identifying the beginning history of verse forty, and in so doing, they are also identifying the ending of verse forty when Putin, who has been typified by Napoleon and Ptolemy—Putin who has been predicted in verses six and seven, fulfills verses eleven and twelve.

呢段經文嘅預言,連同嗰項預言喺托勒密同安提阿古歷史中嘅應驗——而嗰段歷史又預表咗1798年拿破崙同教皇嘅歷史——提供咗三條線,預表第十一同第十二節中普京同澤連斯基嘅歷史。因此,若果我哋對1798年末時嘅理解,只停留喺佢代表拿破崙同教皇嘅歷史,咁樣嘅理解就並不完全。我哋必須明白第六同第七節對拿破崙同教皇所預言嘅內容,亦都要明白托勒密同安提阿古嘅歷史,就同一時期所教導嘅係乜嘢。當我哋明白呢幾條真理線之後,我哋就能夠明白,嗰啲先前喺歷史上嘅應驗,乃係指出第四十節起首嘅歷史;而藉此,佢哋同時亦指出第四十節嘅終結——就係嗰位一直由拿破崙同托勒密所預表、並且喺第六同第七節中已被預言嘅普京,應驗第十一同第十二節之時。

An important observation concerning the prophetic relationship between the dragon and the beast as John would identify them, or as “the daily and the abomination of desolation” as Daniel would represent them is that they are prophetically very similar. John says it this way.

關於約翰所辨識之龍與獸之間嘅預言性關係,或者但以理所表述為「常獻的」同「那行毀壞可憎的」之間嘅關係,一個重要嘅觀察係:佢哋喺預言上非常相似。約翰係咁樣講嘅。

And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? Revelation 13:4.

佢哋就敬拜嗰條龍,因為龍將權柄畀咗獸;佢哋又敬拜獸,話:「邊個能比得上呢隻獸?邊個能與牠交戰呢?」啟示錄 13:4

To worship the dragon is to worship the beast, for both represent the religion of paganism. Like unto John, Daniel uses “the little horn” of Daniel chapter eight verses nine through twelve to represent both pagan and papal Rome, though he clearly distinguishes between the two by identifying the little horn of pagan Rome in the masculine sense, and the little horn of papal Rome in the feminine sense. In chapter seven Daniel identifies pagan Rome as “diverse” from the kingdoms before it, and Daniel further identifies that papal Rome was also “diverse.” Rome, whether pagan or papal is diverse. The male symbol of Rome representing pagan Rome is upheld by Ahab and Herod. Both were married to symbols of the papacy. The woman is churchcraft and the man is statecraft, so at the prophetic level when the Word of God speaks of a man and woman becoming one, it is confirming the reality that pagan Rome and papal Rome are very similar in the prophetic sense, for they are one flesh.

敬拜龍,就是敬拜獸,因為兩者都代表異教主義之宗教。正如約翰一樣,但以理在《但以理書》第八章九至十二節中,用「小角」同時代表異教羅馬與教皇羅馬;然而,他亦清楚區分二者,乃是以陽性意義指認異教羅馬之小角,並以陰性意義指認教皇羅馬之小角。在第七章中,但以理指出異教羅馬與其前之諸國「各有不同」;而但以理進一步指出,教皇羅馬也是「各有不同」。羅馬,無論是異教的或教皇的,都是有別於其他者。以男性作為羅馬之象徵,乃代表異教羅馬,這一點由亞哈與希律所維持。二者都娶了作為教皇制度象徵的女子。女人是教會權術,男人是國家權術,因此,在預言的層面上,當上帝的話語講到男人與女人成為一體之時,這乃是在印證一個事實:異教羅馬與教皇羅馬在預言意義上極其相似,因為二者乃是一體。

France’s relationship to the papacy in 1798 typifies the relationship of the United States with the papacy when the ten kings burn Rome with fire and eat her flesh.

法國於1798年與教廷嘅關係,乃係預表美國與教廷之間嘅關係;當十王用火焚燒羅馬,並吞吃佢嘅肉嘅時候,正係如此。

And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. Revelation 17:16.

你所見獸上的那十角,必憎恨那淫婦,使她荒涼赤身,又要喫她的肉,用火將她燒盡。啟示錄 17:16。

France’s relationship to the papacy when it placed the papacy in power in 538, typifies the work of the United States in healing the papacies’ deadly wound at the soon coming Sunday law.

法國於五三八年扶立教皇權在位之時,與教皇權之關係,乃預表美國在那快將來到的星期日法案中,醫治教皇權那致命傷之工作。

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. Revelation 13:11–14.

我又看見另一隻獸從地中上來;牠有兩角如同羊羔,說話好像龍。牠在頭一隻獸面前,施行頭一隻獸所有的權柄,又使地和住在地上的人都敬拜那受過致命傷而醫好的頭一隻獸。牠又行大奇事,甚至在人面前,叫火從天降在地上;又藉着牠在那獸面前所得施行的神蹟,迷惑住在地上的人;牠吩咐住在地上的人,給那受刀傷而還活着的獸作個像。啟示錄 13:11–14

The “time of the end” in 1798 in fulfillment of verse forty identifies the spiritual king of the north being removed by the spiritual king of the south. That prophetic history is the ending history of the twelve hundred and sixty years of papal rule, and therefore the prophetic characteristics of the beginning of that prophetic history is represented at the ending. In 538 the fourth kingdom of Bible prophecy gave way to the fifth kingdom of Bible prophecy and in 1798 the fifth kingdom of Bible prophecy gave way to the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy.

「末時」於1798年應驗第四十節,指出屬靈的北方王被屬靈的南方王除去。呢段預言歷史,乃係教皇統治一千二百六十年嘅終結歷史;因此,嗰段預言歷史開端時所具有嘅預言特徵,亦喺其終結時呈現出嚟。喺538年,聖經預言中第四個國度讓位畀聖經預言中第五個國度;而喺1798年,聖經預言中第五個國度又讓位畀聖經預言中第六個國度。

538 is also a middle waymark of the curse of the “seven times” of Leviticus twenty-six against the northern kingdom of Israel that began in 723 BC, when Assyria took Ephraim into captivity. 1798 therefore possesses not only the prophetic attributes of 538, but also of 723 BC. In 723 BC the ten tribes of Israel were being overthrown by Assyria, and twelve hundred and sixty years later in 538 pagan Rome was being overthrown by papal Rome, who was in turn overthrown by France in 1798 at the conclusion of the “seven times.”

538 亦都係《利未記》第二十六章所講、臨到以色列北國之「七次」咒詛嘅一個中途里程碑;呢個咒詛始於公元前723年,當時亞述將以法蓮擄去。所以,1798 年唔單止具有 538 年嘅預言性特徵,亦都具有公元前723年嘅預言性特徵。喺公元前723年,以色列十個支派正被亞述推翻;而一千二百六十年之後,喺538年,異教羅馬正被教皇羅馬推翻;到「七次」結束之時,教皇羅馬又喺1798年被法國推翻。

In 1798 France, the king of the south, took the papacy off the throne. In 538 France, the premiere symbol of the disintegration of pagan Rome into ten kingdoms placed the papacy on the throne. At the Sunday law the United States repeats the role of France in 538, and when the ten kings burn the papacy with fire and eat her flesh the United States repeats the role of France in 1798.

喺1798年,法國,即南方王,將教皇制從寶座上拉落嚟。喺538年,法國,作為異教羅馬瓦解成為十國之首要象徵,將教皇制安置喺寶座之上。到咗星期日法令之時,美國重演法國喺538年所擔當嘅角色;而當十王用火焚燒教皇制,並吞食她嘅肉之時,美國就重演法國喺1798年所擔當嘅角色。

The judgment of “seven times” against the northern and southern kingdoms of Israel was brought about by kingdoms which came out of the north.

針對以色列北國同南國所施行「七次」嘅審判,乃係藉住由北方興起嘅列國而成就。

Israel is a scattered sheep; the lions have driven him away: first the king of Assyria hath devoured him; and last this Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath broken his bones. Jeremiah 50:17.

以色列係分散嘅羊;獅子把佢趕散:先有亞述王將佢吞食;最後呢個巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒又打斷咗佢嘅骨頭。耶利米書 50:17。

Assyria came out of the north and conquered the ten tribes in 723 BC and Babylon took Judah captive in 677 BC. Though Israel was the northern kingdom in relation to Judah, still both kingdoms were conquered by enemies from the north, thus making both Israel and Judah southern kingdoms in relation to the enemy who took them into captivity. 723 BC represents the king of the north conquering a southern tenfold kingdom. 538 represents a transition from paganism to papalism and also a northern kingdom conquering a tenfold kingdom. 1798 represents a northern king being defeated by a southern king who represents a tenfold kingdom.

亞述從北方而來,於主前723年征服了十個支派;巴比倫則於主前677年把猶大擄去。以色列雖然相對於猶大乃是北國,然而這兩個國度同樣都是被來自北方的仇敵所征服;因此,就把他們擄去的仇敵而言,以色列與猶大兩者都成了南方的國度。主前723年象徵北方的王征服一個由十組成的南方國度。538年象徵從異教主義轉變為教皇主義,同時也象徵一個北方國度征服一個由十組成的國度。1798年象徵一位北方的王被一位南方的王擊敗,而這位南方的王代表一個由十組成的國度。

And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. Revelation 11:13.

就在那時,發生了大地震,城的十分之一倒塌了;地震中被殺的人有七千;其餘的人都甚是驚惶,便將榮耀歸與天上的上帝。啟示錄 11:13

The period of transition associated with 538, when Rome changed from pagan to papal, is also the change in Daniel chapter eight from masculine to the feminine, which symbolically is from statecraft to churchcraft. The prophecy of “seven times” bears the signature of “truth” for the first letter (723 BC) illustrates the twenty-second and last letter of the Hebrew alphabet (1798), while the thirteenth and middle letter represents rebellion (538). Daniel identifies that the “transgression” that is symbolized by the expression “the transgression of desolation” was the combination of church and state, with the church in control of the relationship. That “transgression” represents 538, which is the middle and metaphorically the thirteenth letter of the three primary waymarks in the period of the seven times against the ten northern tribes of Israel.

與538年相關嘅過渡時期,即羅馬由異教轉變為教皇制之時,亦都係《但以理書》第八章由陽性轉為陰性嘅轉變,呢一點喺象徵上即係由政權統治轉為教會統治。關於「七期」嘅預言帶有「真理」嘅印記,因為第一個字母(公元前723年)說明咗希伯來字母表第二十二個、亦即最後一個字母(1798年),而第十三個、亦即中間嘅字母,則代表悖逆(538年)。但以理指出,由「荒涼之愆」呢個表達所象徵嘅「罪愆」,就係政教結合,而喺呢種關係之中係由教會掌控。嗰個「罪愆」就代表538年;喺針對以色列北方十個支派之「七期」期間三個主要里程碑之中,538年乃係中間一個,並且喺比喻上相當於第十三個字母。

In 1798, the “time of the end” as set forth in verse forty of Daniel chapter eleven, atheistic France, the king of the south delivered the deadly wound to the papacy, the king of the north. In 1989 the papacy retaliated against the atheistic king of the south, who had then become the Soviet Union. The retaliation included a secret alliance between the United States and the Vatican. The sweeping away of the Soviet Union in 1989 ends the written prophetic message of verse forty, and the next verse, verse forty-one, represents the Sunday law in the United States. Thus, from the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989 until the Sunday law in the next verse we have been living in the hidden history of verse forty.

喺1798年,正如但以理書第十一章第四十節所指出嘅「末時」,無神論嘅法國——南方王——向教皇制,即北方王,施以致命嘅傷。到咗1989年,教皇制向無神論嘅南方王作出反擊;嗰時南方王已經成為蘇聯。呢次反擊包括美國同梵蒂岡之間一個秘密聯盟。1989年蘇聯被席捲而去,標誌住第四十節所記載嘅先知信息嘅文字記述告終;而下一節,即第四十一節,所代表嘅乃係美國嘅星期日法。因此,由1989年蘇聯瓦解起,直到下一節所講嘅星期日法之前,我哋一直都係活喺第四十節隱藏嘅歷史當中。

Verse forty begins by identifying a king of the south and north in 1798, and then in 1989 a king of the south and north, as well as a third power represented by the chariots, ships and horsemen.

第四十節一開始便指出,於一七九八年有南方王同北方王;其後到一九八九年,亦有南方王同北方王,並且仲有第三股勢力,由車輛、船隻同馬兵所代表。

And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over. Daniel 11:40.

到咗末時,南方王必向佢衝擊;北方王必如旋風般向佢猛攻,帶住戰車、馬兵,同埋許多船艦;佢必進入列國,勢如洪水氾濫,橫掃而過。Daniel 11:40.

At the “time of the end” in 1798 a literal general of Napoleon entered the Vatican and literally took the pope and incarcerated him. In 1989 the retaliation for 1798 took place. There had been prophetic transitions which took place in the history between 1798 and 1989 that are important to note. Atheistic France, the king of the south in the 1798 time period was the first spiritual king of the south, and Putin’s Russia is destined to be its last. France is identified in Revelation eleven, which is directly identified by Sister White as atheistic France. One of the two symbols which identify France in chapter eleven is Egypt, which Sister White identifies as a symbol of atheism. In the chapter the beast who ascends out of the bottomless pit was atheism that came into history during that time period.

喺1798年「末時」之際,拿破崙手下一位真實嘅將軍進入梵蒂岡,真實噉將教皇擄去,並把佢囚禁起來。到1989年,對1798年嘅報復就發生咗。喺1798年至1989年之間嘅歷史當中,曾經出現一啲先知性嘅轉變,呢啲都係值得留意嘅。無神論嘅法國,即係1798年嗰個時期南方王嘅身份,乃係第一個屬靈嘅南方王,而普京治下嘅俄羅斯則注定成為最後一個。《啟示錄》第十一章指出法國,而懷愛倫姊妹亦直接將之界定為無神論嘅法國。喺第十一章當中,用以辨識法國嘅兩個象徵之一,就係埃及;而懷愛倫姊妹指出,埃及乃係無神論嘅象徵。喺嗰一章裏面,嗰隻從無底坑上來嘅獸,就係喺嗰段時期進入歷史嘅無神論。

Atheism comes into history beginning with France in the 1798 time period and by 1989 the spiritual king of atheism has become the Soviet Union. The sweeping away of the Soviet Union in 1989 in fulfillment of a secret alliance between Pope John Paul II and Ronald Reagan had been typified in verse ten of Daniel chapter eleven, and a second witness to verse ten is found in Isaiah’s passage of the two curses of twenty-five hundred and twenty years against the northern and southern kingdoms of Israel as set forth in chapters seven through eleven.

無神論進入歷史,乃始於法國在1798年前後之時期;及至1989年,無神論屬靈之王已成為蘇聯。蘇聯於1989年被掃除,乃應驗教宗若望保祿二世與朗奴·列根之間一項祕密聯盟;此事已在但以理書第十一章第十節中以預表顯明,而第十節之第二見證,則見於以賽亞書第七章至第十一章所陳述、針對以色列北國與南國之兩個二千五百二十年咒詛的經文之中。

1989 therefore becomes the point of reference for resolving the prophetic riddles of the last days. It was then that verse forty was unsealed. It can now be recognized that verse forty begins in 1798 and ends at the Sunday law of verse forty-one.

因此,1989年就成為解開末時預言謎題嘅參照點。正係喺嗰時,第四十節被揭開封印。如今可以辨認到,第四十節始於1798年,並終於第四十一節所指嘅星期日法案。

At the Sunday law the United States will speak as a dragon and end its rule as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. It began its time to reign in 1798, when the fifth kingdom received a deadly wound. In 1798 the United States passed the Alien and Sedition Acts, thus typifying the end of the sixth kingdom at it’s very beginning. Verse forty is therefore the history of the United States as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy.

到咗星期日法案之時,美國就會如龍說話,並以《聖經》預言中第六個國度嘅身分結束其統治。佢喺1798年開始其執政時期,就係第五個國度受咗致命傷嗰陣。1798年,美國通過咗《外僑法》同《煽動叛亂法》,因此喺佢最初開始之時,就已預表咗第六個國度嘅終局。所以,第四十節就係講述美國作為《聖經》預言中第六個國度嘅歷史。

1798 is the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet, the Sunday law is the twenty-second and last letter of the Hebrew alphabet and 1989 is the waymark in the middle that represents the rebellion symbolized by the number thirteen and the thirteenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet. 1989 represents the rebellion of Reagan’s secret alliance with the antichrist of Bible prophecy. 1989 introduces the first of the last eight presidents that reign during a period of escalating rebellion against the Constitution. 1989 began a testing process among Seventh-day Adventists that is designed to produce two classes of worshippers. The faithful are the few the unfaithful are the many. 1989 represents the center waymark of verse forty, and it represents the rebellion symbolized by the thirteenth letter. Verse forty bears the signature of “truth.”

1798 係希伯來字母表中第一個字母,星期日法案係希伯來字母表中第二十二個、亦即最後一個字母,而 1989 係位於中間嘅路標,代表由數字十三同希伯來字母表第十三個字母所象徵嘅悖逆。1989 代表列根與聖經預言中敵基督所結成之秘密同盟嘅悖逆。1989 引進咗最後八位總統中嘅第一位;呢八位總統係喺對憲法之悖逆日益加劇嘅時期中執政。1989 開始咗一個喺基督復臨安息日會信徒中間嘅試驗過程,其目的係要產生兩等敬拜者。忠心嘅係少數,不忠心嘅係多數。1989 代表第四十節中間嘅路標,亦代表由第十三個字母所象徵嘅悖逆。第四十節帶有「真理」嘅印記。

Verse forty has kings of the north and the south who are different in the history at the end of the verse. It also has the United States, who according to John is the false prophet who works with the dragon and beast to lead the world to Armageddon. The king of the south in verse forty is the dragon, the king of the north is the beast; the chariots, ships and horsemen are the false prophet. The fulfillment of verse forty in 1989 becomes an important prophetic attribute for understanding verses eleven through fifteen. If you are not right on 1989, you cannot logically be right about the history we are in today.

第四十節提到南方王同北方王,而到該節末段,佢哋喺歷史上已經有所不同。經文亦提到美國;按約翰所言,美國就係假先知,與龍同獸一同作工,引領世界走向哈米吉多頓。第四十節嘅南方王係龍,北方王係獸;戰車、船隻同馬兵就係假先知。第四十節喺1989年嘅應驗,成為理解第十一至十五節嘅一個重要預言特徵。若你對1989年嘅理解唔正確,你就唔可能喺邏輯上對我哋今日所處嘅歷史有正確嘅理解。

From 1989 unto the Sunday law three proxy wars for the papacy are represented in verses ten through fifteen. These verses must be considered as one continuous history for the same “Antiochus Magnus” is found in the three battles represented in the historical fulfillment of verses ten through fifteen.

由1989年直到星期日法令,教皇權共有三場代理戰爭,乃由第十至第十五節所表徵。這些經文必須視為一段連續的歷史,因為在第十至第十五節之歷史應驗所表現的三場戰役之中,所見的乃是同一位「Antiochus Magnus」。

All three battles are one prophetic line, for Antiochus Magnus was in each of the three battles. Verse ten, and Isaiah 8:8 provide two witnesses to the fulfillment of verse forty in 1989. Verse forty is the point of reference in verse ten and Isaiah 8:8. The “chariots, ships and horsemen” represent the two horns of the earth beast in chapter thirteen of Revelation. At the end, when the United States “speaks as a dragon” the two horns are no longer Republicanism and Protestantism. At that time the so-called Protestants will join with Catholicism, and the Constitutional Republic will be changed into a dictatorship. In that time period the two horns of the earth beast will be economic and military strength. In chapter thirteen of Revelation the United States forces the world to accept the mark of the beast in order to buy and sell, and also upon threat of death. Those two horns are Daniel’s “ships” representing economic power and his “horsemen and chariots” representing military strength.

三場戰爭全屬同一條預言脈絡,因為安提阿古·馬格努斯在這三場戰爭之中都在其中。第十節同以賽亞書 8:8,為第四十節於 1989 年之應驗提供兩個見證。第四十節乃第十節同以賽亞書 8:8 的參照點。「車輛、船隻同馬兵」代表啟示錄第十三章中地獸的兩角。到末時,當美國「說話好像龍」之時,這兩角就不再是共和主義同新教主義。到那時,所謂的新教徒將會與天主教聯合,而憲政共和國亦將被改變成為獨裁政體。在那段時期,地獸的兩角將會是經濟實力同軍事力量。在啟示錄第十三章,美國強迫世人接受獸的印記,方可買賣,並且亦在死亡威嚇之下如此行。這兩角就是但以理所說的「船隻」,代表經濟力量;以及他的「馬兵同車輛」,代表軍事力量。

1989 establishes that when applying the historical fulfillment of the battles of Raphia and Panium in verses eleven through fifteen, the same prophetic methodology that was employed to understand 1989 and the collapse of the Soviet Union must be used for Antiochus Magnus was in all three battles represented in verses ten through fifteen. Antiochus represents the power of chariots, ships and horsemen, who in 1989 was Ronald Reagan, the first of eight presidents, of which the last was also the sixth and is now the eighth that is of the seven.

1989年確立了一點:當把第十一至十五節中拉非亞(Raphia)與帕尼烏姆(Panium)之戰嘅歷史應驗加以應用時,必須採用同一套先知性方法論,正如用以理解1989年同蘇聯解體時所採用者一樣;因為安提阿古·馬格努斯(Antiochus Magnus)喺第十至十五節所呈現嘅三場戰爭當中,全部都被代表出嚟。安提阿古代表戰車、船隻同馬兵嘅權勢;而喺1989年,呢一個就係朗奴·列根(Ronald Reagan),即八位總統之中嘅第一位;其中最後一位同時亦係第六位,並且如今就係那出於七位之中嘅第八位。

According to Isaiah twenty-three the papal power, (the whore who commits fornication with the kings of the earth) would be hidden during the reign of the United States as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. In 1989 the United States, that had been typified by Antiochus Magnus was the proxy power of the papacy in its warfare against the beast of atheism that delivered it a deadly wound in 1798.

根據以賽亞書第二十三章,教皇權勢(即那與地上眾王行淫的淫婦)將會在作為聖經預言中第六個國度之美國統治期間被隱藏起來。到了一九八九年,那曾由安提阿古大帝所預表的美國,在其對抗無神主義之獸的戰爭中,乃是教皇權的代理勢力;而這獸正是在一七九八年使教皇權受了致命傷。

The three battles of verse ten through fifteen represent warfare between the king of the north, who as the hidden whore of Tyre, employs proxy powers as she moves towards the restoration of her power and the defeat of the king of atheism—the king of the south. The historical fulfillments of the three battles of verses ten through fifteen instruct us that in the first and last battles Antiochus Magnus won, but the middle battle he lost. The prophetic characteristics of the 1989 Ronald Reagan years with Pope John Paul II and the collapse of the Soviet Union will have a counterpart in the last of the three battles, for these verses are what is unsealed just before probation closes. As verse forty was unsealed in 1798 and then again in 1989, the verse was unsealed at the end, beginning in July 2023.

第十至第十五節所記載的三場戰爭,乃係北方王與南方王——即無神論之王——之間嘅爭戰;北方王作為推羅隱藏嘅淫婦,喺朝向恢復其權勢並擊敗南方王嘅進程中,運用代理勢力。第十至第十五節呢三場戰爭喺歷史上嘅應驗,教導我哋:喺第一場同最後一場戰役中,安提阿古·馬格努斯取得勝利,但喺中間嗰場戰役中,佢卻失敗。1989年朗奴·列根年間、若望保祿二世在位時,以及蘇聯瓦解所具備嘅預言性特徵,將會喺三場戰役之中最後一場找到相對應,因為呢幾節經文,正係喺恩門關閉之前不久所被揭開嘅。正如第四十節喺1798年被揭開,其後又喺1989年再次被揭開一樣,呢一節經文喺末時亦被揭開,始於2023年7月。

The Revelation of Jesus Christ is unsealed just before probation closes and it includes the preeminent truth that Jesus is the first and the last, and as such always illustrates the end with the beginning. Probation closes for Adventism at the Sunday law, and just before the close of probation the Revelation of Jesus Christ is unsealed. The message which concludes at the closed door of the Sunday law is the message of the Midnight Cry, which led to the closed door of October 22, 1844 in Millerite history. The unsealing of 1798 in the beginning of verse forty which is also the beginning of the United States as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy typified the unsealing of 1989 in the middle of verse forty and the start of the progressive ending of the United States. The unsealing in 1798 which typified 1989 represents two witnesses to the unsealing of the message of the Midnight Cry in 2023. The line, with its three waymarks 1798, 1989 and 2023 identifies the internal work of purifying ten virgins and the external line of the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy.

耶穌基督之啟示,係喺恩門關閉之前啱啱被解開;其中包含一項至高無上嘅真理,就係耶穌乃係首先嘅,亦係末後嘅,因此祂總係以起頭說明結局。對復臨運動而言,恩門喺星期日法案之時關閉;而就在恩門關閉之前,耶穌基督之啟示被解開。嗰個喺星期日法案之閉門告終嘅信息,正係午夜呼聲嘅信息;而呢個信息曾喺米勒派歷史中,引到1844年10月22日嘅閉門。喺第四十節開頭、即1798年嘅解開——亦即作為聖經預言第六國之美國嘅開始——乃係預表第四十節中間、1989年嘅解開,以及美國逐步走向終結嘅開始。1798年嗰次預表1989年嘅解開,乃係為2023年午夜呼聲信息被解開作出兩個見證。呢條線連同其三個路標——1798年、1989年同2023年——指出咗潔淨十個童女嘅內部工作,同埋聖經預言第六國嘅外在線路。

The battle set forth in verse eleven which was fulfilled at the Battle of Raphia when Antiochus was defeated by Ptolemy, represents a defeat of the papal proxy power, who in this current battle is the Nazi’s of the Ukraine allied with the Western European globalist nations that make up the EU, NATO and are in lock step with the political and economic globalists of the United Nations. If Antiochus Magnus was at all three battles and represents the papal proxy power against the king of the south, how can it be the United States in 1989, then the Ukrainians as typified by the Battle of Raphia and then the United States again at the Battle of Panium? Verse ten is the key to verses eleven through fifteen for its fulfillment in 1989 provides an illustration of the prophetic characteristics of the first of the three proxy wars. What is the prophetic justification for identifying Antiochus as the papal proxy power, while not applying the United States to each of the three battles?

第十一節所提出嘅戰爭,喺拉菲亞之戰得到應驗;當時安提阿古被托勒密擊敗。呢一場戰爭象徵教皇制嘅代理勢力遭受挫敗;而喺當前呢場戰爭之中,呢個代理勢力就係烏克蘭境內嘅納粹分子,佢哋與構成歐盟、北約嘅西歐全球主義國家結盟,並且與聯合國嘅政治同經濟全球主義者步伐一致。若然安提阿古·馬格努斯曾經出現於全部三場戰爭之中,並且代表對抗南方王嘅教皇制代理勢力,咁又點可能喺1989年係美國,然後喺由拉菲亞之戰所預表嘅情況中又變成烏克蘭人,之後喺帕尼烏姆之戰又再一次成為美國呢?第十節乃係理解第十一至第十五節嘅關鍵,因為佢喺1989年嘅應驗,提供咗第一場三場代理戰爭中之首場嘅先知性特徵之圖解。將安提阿古界定為教皇制代理勢力,而唔將美國應用於呢三場戰爭之中每一場,其先知性根據究竟係乜嘢?

In the history of the Ukrainian war, which has been typified by the battle of Raphia the United States employed the Nazi’s of the Ukraine as their proxy power in the very history where they are forming and image of the papacy, the power who always and only uses proxy powers to do her dirty work.

喺預表咗拉菲亞之戰嘅烏克蘭戰爭歷史當中,美國運用烏克蘭嘅納粹作為佢哋嘅代理勢力;而正正喺呢段歷史之中,佢哋正塑造緊教皇權嘅像——嗰個一向並且只會利用代理勢力去替自己做骯髒工作嘅權勢。

To answer the question of proxy powers in verses ten through fifteen involves a prophetic study of the characteristics of Antiochus as a symbol. The Diadochi Wars were a series of conflicts from 323–281 BC among the Diadochi (Greek for “successors”), the generals and successors of Alexander the Great, who fought for control of his vast empire after his death in 323 BC. The first Antiochus was Antiochus I Soter, the son of Seleucus I Nicator, one of Alexander’s Diadochi (successors), who founded the Seleucid Empire.

要回答第十至第十五節中關於代理權勢嘅問題,就必須從先知性研究安提阿古作為一個象徵所具備嘅特徵入手。繼業者戰爭(Diadochi Wars)係一連串發生於主前323年至281年之間嘅衝突,交戰各方乃係繼業者(Diadochi,希臘文意為「繼承者」),即亞歷山大大帝嘅將領同繼承人;喺佢於主前323年死後,佢哋為咗爭奪對其廣大帝國嘅控制權而彼此交戰。第一位安提阿古乃係安提阿古一世救主(Antiochus I Soter),佢係塞琉古一世尼卡托耳(Seleucus I Nicator)之子;塞琉古一世乃亞歷山大嘅其中一位繼業者(successors),亦係塞琉古帝國嘅創建者。

The name Antiochus can be understood to mean one who stands in place of, in order to support. Antiochus is a symbol of Rome, and papal Rome is the antichrist, which possesses a similar symbolism as does Antiochus. Antiochus as a name represented the son of the founder of the Seleucid Empire, and in that sense, Antiochus stood in the place of his father, he stood as his proxy. Sister White identifies both Satan and the pope as the antichrist, and states that the pope is Satan’s representative on earth. It became a prominent dynastic name in the Seleucid Empire, partly due to its association with Antiochus I Soter and the city of Antioch, named after either Seleucus I’s father or son. The pope is the proxy for Satan, and symbolically the name Antiochus represents a proxy for his father, the founder of the northern kingdom who located its capital in Babylon.

「安提阿古」呢個名字,可以理解為代替某人站立、以作支持者。安提阿古乃羅馬嘅象徵,而教皇羅馬就係敵基督;佢所具有嘅象徵意義,與安提阿古相若。作為名字,安提阿古代表塞琉古帝國創立者之子;就呢個意義而言,安提阿古係代其父而立,作為佢嘅代理。懷愛倫姊妹指出,撒但同教皇都係敵基督,並且說明教皇乃撒但喺地上嘅代表。由於此名與安提阿古一世救主,以及安提阿城有所關聯——而安提阿城乃按塞琉古一世之父或其子而命名——故此「安提阿古」遂成為塞琉古帝國中一個顯著嘅王朝名號。教皇乃撒但嘅代理;而按象徵意義而言,「安提阿古」呢個名字乃代表其父之代理,即北方國度嘅創立者;佢將其首都設於巴比倫。

After Alexander the Great’s death in 323 BC, his empire fragmented among the Diadochi (successors). In the Partition of Babylon (323 BC), Seleucus was initially appointed as the commander of the Companion cavalry (a prestigious military post) under Perdiccas, the regent of Alexander’s empire. By 321 BC, Seleucus was appointed satrap (governor) of Babylonia during the Partition of Triparadisus, following Perdiccas’ death and further negotiations among the Diadochi. In 316 BC, Antigonus I Monophthalmus, another Diadoch, forced Seleucus to flee Babylon due to Antigonus’ growing power. Seleucus sought refuge with Ptolemy I Soter in Egypt. In 312 BC, Seleucus returned to Babylon with a small force provided by Ptolemy. He defeated Antigonus’ forces and retook Babylon, marking the establishment of his power base. This event is often considered the founding of the Seleucid Empire, with 312 BC as the start of the Seleucid Era in historical reckoning.

亞歷山大大帝於主前323年逝世之後,佢嘅帝國喺繼業者(Diadochi)之間分裂。喺《巴比倫分封》(主前323年)之中,塞琉古最初被委任為亞歷山大帝國攝政佩爾狄卡斯麾下嘅夥友騎兵統帥(此乃一項顯赫嘅軍職)。到咗主前321年,繼佩爾狄卡斯死後,以及繼業者之間進一步談判之後,塞琉古喺《特里帕拉狄蘇斯分封》期間被委任為巴比倫尼亞總督(satrap)。主前316年,另一位繼業者安提柯一世·獨眼(Antigonus I Monophthalmus)因其勢力日益壯大,迫使塞琉古逃離巴比倫。塞琉古遂往埃及投奔托勒密一世·救主(Ptolemy I Soter)。主前312年,塞琉古率領托勒密所提供嘅一支小部隊重返巴比倫。佢擊敗咗安提柯嘅軍隊,重新奪回巴比倫,標誌住佢權力根基嘅建立。此事件通常被視為塞琉古帝國創立之始,而主前312年亦被歷史紀年視為塞琉古紀元嘅開端。

The name Seluecus is derived from Greek and comes from the root selas (σέλας), meaning “light,” “radiance,” or “flame.” The name suggests brilliance or illumination, fitting for a prominent figure like Seleucus I Nicator, the founder of the Seleucid Empire and who typifies the father who had been the light bearer in heaven.

「Seluecus」呢個名字源自希臘文,出於字根 selas(σέλας),意為「光」、「光輝」或「火焰」。呢個名字帶有燦爛或照耀之意,對於一位顯赫人物如 Seleucus I Nicator——塞琉古帝國嘅創立者,並且預表嗰位曾經喺天上作為擔光者嘅父——實在相稱。

“To secure worldly gains and honors, the church was led to seek the favor and support of the great men of earth; and having thus rejected Christ, she was induced to yield allegiance to the representative of Satan—the bishop of Rome.” The Great Controversy, 50.

「為要獲取屬世的利益與尊榮,教會被引導去尋求地上權貴的恩寵與支持;既然如此棄絕了基督,她便被誘使向撒但的代表——羅馬主教——效忠。」《善惡之爭》,50。

Antiochus Magnus represents the proxy of papal power, as the pope represents the proxy of Satan. The symbolism of Antiochus allows for differing proxy powers, just as there have been many popes. Reagan was the proxy of 1989, the Ukraine became the proxy of the United States in 2014 and Trump is the proxy at the Battle of Panium. Reagan was the first, Trump is the last and Zelenskyy is the rebellion in the middle.

安提阿哥馬格努斯代表教皇權勢嘅代理,正如教皇代表撒但嘅代理一樣。安提阿哥嘅象徵容許出現唔同嘅代理權勢,正如歷來有許多位教皇一樣。列根係1989年嘅代理;到2014年,烏克蘭成為美國嘅代理;而特朗普就係帕尼烏姆之戰中嘅代理。列根係首先嘅,特朗普係末後嘅,而澤連斯基就係當中嘅悖逆。
