JAMIESON, FAUSSET, and BROWN

Did you know that the famous Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown were premillennialists? There commentary on both the NT and OT shows this. They write on Jeremiah 31:    "The new covenant with Israel and Judah is not with a spiritual Israel but with literal Israel. The promise here is for Israel in the last days is national and universal, and effected by an extraordinary outpouring of the Spirit."    On Ezekiel 38 they write: "The final triumph of Messiah's truth over the most distant and barbarous nations is represented as a literal conflict on a gigantic scale, Israel being the battle field, ending in the complete triumph of Israel's anointed King, the Savior of the world. Ezekiel describes the antichristian confederacy which is to assail the Holy Land before the Millennium, and there is another war with Gog and Magog in Revelation 20 describing the corresponding and last antichristian confederacy which is to assail the believed city at the close of the Millennium."    On the "chief prince" and "Rosh" this is the Scythian Tauri in the Crimea. Ros means Russia, also we have here Moscow and Tobolsk from Meshech and Tubal, referring to the Slavs.    These great men studied the Bible in its literal context and can be trusted to tell us like it is. They followed the outstanding Rabbis and take the Bible in its literal sense. – Dr. Mal Couch (6-10)
