Referring to events and circumstances experienced by God’s people long before, the apostle Paul stated: “Now these things went on befalling them as examples, and they were written for a warning to us upon whom the ends of the systems of things have arrived. ”
Kui apostel Paulus mainis erinevaid sündmusi ja seiku vanaaja juutide elust, ütles ta: „See sündis neile eeltähendavalt ja on kirjutatud meile manitsuseks, kellele maailma lõpu ajad on vastu jõudnud ”.
