The prophet Malachi ministered to the Jews who returned from exile. In 586 B.C., Jerusalem was utterly destroyed (see Lamentations), and the final deportations of captives were taken to Babylon. Some captives (about 50,000) began to return under the leadership of Zerubbabel (see Ezra, Haggai, and Zechariah). However, the 70-year captivity was not over until the temple was rebuilt and worship resumed in Jerusalem, in 516 B.C. (see 1Ki 8:46–53; Jer 32:36–37; Dan 6:1–17). Many of the sins cited by Malachi were already prominent in the time of Nehemiah (cf. Nehemiah 13) and were corrected by his reforms.
These notes are from the February 2011 conference on Malachi held in Florida.

Daniel #18

Daniel #18

Daniel reviews gentile history; Revelation fills in the church age. The empire of Greece after Alexander, split four ways (Dan 8:8): Turkey, Greece, Syria, Eqypt. The little horn -- antichrist -- comes out of one of the 4 areas (Dan 8:5, Dan 8:9). Prophecy has a near and far fulfillment. Antiochus Epiphanies is a near fulfillment of the little horn. Satan is behind the antichrist (Rev 12:3-6). The antichrist makes himself in the place of Christ (Dan 8:11, Jos 5:14-15). The period of time that the sanctuary is "trodden under foot" is 3.5 years or 2300 days (Dan 8:12-14). Gabriel explains (Dan 8:15-19, Dan 9:21, Dan 10:13, Luk 1:26). The rapture happens at the "last trumpet" (1Co 15:52); the first trumpet gathers Israel (Num 10:1-2). Antichrist has Satan behind him (Dan 8:23-24, Dan 11:31-34) and opposes Jesus Christ the "Prince of Princes" (Dan 8:25). Daniel remained faithful to authority place over him (Dan 8:27).
