The Bible has nothing to say during the 400 years between the Old Testament and the New Testament, so Jeff researched this time period for us and now fills in what was happening in this period. He reveals to us just how God was working to prepare for the coming of Jesus, the long-awaited Messiah. This period is known as the Intertestamental Period, because it is the time between the two testaments when no prophesies were recorded for us to learn from today. However, the prophesy of Daniel in chapters 2 and 7 is very revealing for this period. God selected just the right time for Jesus to be born and to live with us – he held back “until the fullness of time was come“, which was the appropriate and best time that he had set – Galatians 4:4.
