Makes You Think! Apr 24, 2005
By Rebecca Henderson
Do the ancient writings of Biblical prophesy have any relevance in today's world? You bet they do! In The Fullness of Time, J.B. Orly has written about a subject that generations of Biblical scholars have puzzled over and examined. Mr. Orly's book makes the complexity much more understandable and less mysterious.
The Fullness of Time is subtitled "The Truth About What's Coming and - When." In this highly readable book, Mr. Orly has explained Biblical prophesy to his understanding. He doesn't try to "convert" the reader to his way of thinking, but only to offer his opinions on prophesy.
Often when thinking of Biblical prophesy, we tend to think of the book of Revelation. Mr. Orly definitely covers Revelation in The Fullness of Time, but he also covers other parts of Biblical prophesy, especially the book of Daniel. Current events are related to events that were predicted centuries earlier in the Bible. The Fullness of Time is not written as many books of Biblical prophesy are written; that is, with language that is highly theological and so difficulty to understand that you have to have a dictionary by your side as you sit and study. Instead, this book is very readable and understandable, and uses modern language.
With 546 pages, The Fullness of Time is definitely a hefty and meaty book. Don't let the length scare you, however! Mr. Orly has divided the pages into five volumes; each volume has several chapter. Furthermore, the chapters are divided into much smaller sections, many of which are no more than 2 or 3 pages long. The Fullness of Time would be a wonderful book to use in supplementing a daily Bible study, if only because of the way it's divided. The author has gone to great lengths in researching the book, as well as in documenting that research. The chapter notes are very impressive!
If you're even vaguely interested in Biblical prophesy or if you're looking to expand your knowledge base of it, make sure The Fullness of Time is in your reading material!
J.B. Orly, author of The Fullness of Time has a master's degree. Mr. Orly has held several interesting positions in various businesses, including chairman of a major research foundation, as well a president of a private company. He has been published in a variety of articles in trade journals.
