PREFACE.
The Roman Empire in the Light of Prophecy.
Chapter I. - THE TIMES OF THE GENTILES.
The Times of the Gentiles.
Nebuchadnezzar's Dream.
The Fourth Kingdom.
The work offers a clear‑sighted survey of Rome’s ascent, beginning with the decisive triumph at Actium and the establishment of Augustus as the first emperor. It traces the political and military milestones that shaped the empire, presenting the material in a concise, readable style that makes the ancient world accessible to modern ears. By focusing on key figures and turning points, the author builds a solid foundation for understanding how a small city‑state grew into a dominant power.
Beyond the historical narrative, the book turns its gaze to the biblical prophecies that many have linked to Rome’s destiny. It examines scriptural passages, explaining how they have been interpreted in relation to the empire’s rise and its eventual decline, while carefully avoiding dogmatic assertions. Readers who enjoy thoughtful connections between history and faith will find this blend of scholarship and devotional reflection both informative and thought‑provoking.
