Excerpt: ...been done since time was. 7 Then all created men shall come into the fire of trial, and many shall be offended and shall perish. 8 But they who have endured in their faith shall be 7. Then all created men shall come into the fire of trial.--Bryennios thinks that here the writer is using the mystic words of Zech. xiii. 8, 9, prophesying the final trial of men by fire. 8.

Rev. xix. 1 probably conveys the same idea, "He was clothed with a garment dipped in blood." Wearing the marks of the passion which they reviled and deemed accursed shall His enemies see Him on that awful day. "They shall look upon Me whom they have pierced" (Zech. xii....
