In the Hebrew of the Old Testament the word tamid is used as an adverb, which modifies a verbal motion, to point out that the action goes on regularly, consistently or continually-"daily" at regular, repeated intervals.

The events of the year 1798 and what followed immediately afterward are of great interest to students of history and prophecy. In this collection of primary and secondary documents compiled shortly thereafter, Brother Heiks has filled out the events surrounding the captivity of Pope Pius VI and the setting up of the Roman Republic through the eyes of those who participated in those events at the time. One can follow this course of events in intimate detail through the witness of those who favored such a change and those who did not. All of this makes the importance of those events much more...

The year A.D. 538 was a landmark year for the beginning of the fulfillment of an important time prophecy that spans the Middle Ages.

Brother Heiks has done precisely that with this present study of the important events that occurred and documents what were developed that year. His related studies of A.D. 508 and A.D. 1798 are also recommended to complete this trilogy of important historical-prophetic studies. William H. Shea, MD, Ph.D. Former...

There are two schools of thought on the interpretation of Daniel 11, especially the closing verses which are seen as still to be fulfilled in the future. The first may be called the literal historical view in which the kings of the north and south are seen as literal geo-political entities in the present day Middle East. Adventist interpreters favored this view until the end of World War I when the British and the Turks fought a battle at Megiddo (Armageddon), but Christ did not come after it. This failure led to the development of the second view, what may be called the spiritual or symbolic...

Brother Heiks has spent many years of research studying the primary documents of church and political history. We appreciate the fine work that Brother Heiks has done in collecting and analyzing much of this obscure material. Students of political, religious and prophetic history are in his debt for this very useful work. -William H. Shea, MD, Ph.D., Former Professor: Old Testament Department, Seminary, Andrews University; Former Associate: Biblical Research Institute, General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists
