An explan­ ation would seem to be in order. Almost thou persuadest me to believe in the prophets. We have never taken Bible prophecy very seriously, They appear for the most part to have b e e n written purposely vague and obscure so that if any of them happen to hk within a thousand miles uf ihe mark it can be claimed that they were fulfilled. But “ Peacemaker’s” reference in last week’s Journal to Isaiab 56:10 has got us lo thinking. It seems impossible that Isaiah could hava looked down through the corridors of time for nearly 2700 y ea n and •o accurately depicted present day conditions without having had a little divine assistance. Th;s is on a of the prophecies we had overlooked. There might be something to it, alter all.
