These notes were compiled and presented as lectures and were not intended for publication in Commentary form. I apologise for any omission in the acknowledgment of the source of quotations made. This will be corrected in future editions.

The Prophetic sections have been approached in three stages. In the first instance I have attempted to provide explanatory notes on the verses without attempting to interpret the meaning of the dream or vision. I have then taken a second look and have attempted to deal with any given interpretation without introducing material that is not clearly in the text itself. A third approach attempts to deal with commonly presented views, interpretations and speculations.
