WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID
J. Murray (1863)
"Alcasar, a Spanish Jesuit, taking a hint from
Victorinus, seems to have
been the first (AD 1614) to have suggested that the Apocalyptic prophecies
did not extend further than to the overthrow of Paganism by
Constantine.
This view, with variations by
Grotius, is taken up and expounded by
Bossuet,
Calmet, De Sacy, Eichhorn, Hug, Herder, Ewald,
Moses Stuart, Davidson. The
general view of the school is that the Apocalypse described the triumph of
Christianity over Judaism in the first, and over Heathenism in the third
century." (A Dictionary of the Bible)
Benjamin Warfield (1)
The Preterist, which holds that all, or nearly all, the prophecies of the book were fulfilled in the early Christian ages, either in the history of the Jewish race up to A.D. 70, or in that of Pagan Rome up to the fourth or fifth century. With Hentensius and Salmeron as forerunners, the Jesuit Alcasar (1614) was the father of this school. To it belong Grotius, Bossuet, Hammond, LeClerc, Wetstein, Eichhorn, Herder, Hartwig, Koppe, Hug, Heinrichs, Ewald, De Wette, Bleek, Reuss, Reville, Renan, Desprez, S. Davidson, Stuart, Lucke, Dusterdieck, Maurice, Farrar, etc. " (Revelation)
