May 5, 2022 at 14:36 comment added Paul Chernoch This could include using private nicknames for people that have been lost to history. The fact that historians are baffled does not prove the Bible has an error, but that this sealing up of the meaning was highly effective and remains so today.
May 5, 2022 at 14:36 comment added Paul Chernoch The late Ellis Skolfield had an interesting interpretation of Daniel 8:26, 9:24 and 12:4 which speak of sealing up the prophecy. He claims that Daniel intentionally rearranged events and chapters and applied other prophetic encryption techniques so that the timelines of the prophecies would not be decipherable until late in history, when God would reveal the means of decrypting them to the church. Since God cannot lie, that means truthful but subtle alterations would make the full sense of the words beyond reach.
