Yet remarkably, his prophetic commentary on the Mount Olivet Discourse has never before appeared in English.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eUntil now.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis groundbreaking volume presents the first English translation of Grotius' commentary on the Mount Olivet Discourse - Matthew 24-25 and the parallel passages of Mark 13, Luke 17,21 - allowing modern readers to encounter firsthand one of the great intellectual architects of early Protestant biblical interpretation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat makes Grotius unique is not simply that he connected Jesus' prophecy to the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70. Many readers already know that argument. What makes this work extraordinary is the depth of historical insight behind it. Grotius combines mastery of Scripture, Roman history, Jewish sources, geography, classical literature, and prophetic typology in a way few modern commentators can rival. Long before contemporary prophecy debates, Grotius carefully explored: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe Roman siege of Jerusalem, \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \"abomination of desolation,\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe sanctity of Judea and the Temple borders, \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe disciples' \"three questions\" in Matthew 24, \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChrist's \"coming\" as distinguished from the final judgment, \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eand the covenantal significance of the fall of Jerusalem.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGrotius' \"proto-preterist\" hermeneutic influenced centuries of later interpretation.
