Forget the 700 year differential. In heavenly terms, the timeline is minimized. They all see the same thing, albeit as you say from different perspectives and vantage points. The man with the measuring rod is the same in each instance, making fair assessments at different moments in time. The angel in one vision is the Lord in another. The temple is the temple, the throne is the throne and so on.
“Forget the 700 year differential. In heavenly terms, the timeline is minimized.”
“They all see the same thing, albeit as you say from different perspectives and vantage points. “
right that’s what my point is about different times when they saw it thoer perspective fits thoer time and what was happening in it but they all are seeing the same events happen I agree .
what I mean is
the earlier prophecies aren’t as revealing as johns because it was further away and other things were being fulfilled in thier time . from the even earlier prophets for instance when Babylon overthrew Jerusalem destroying the temple and made them captive originally so in daniels time
here’s an example of what I mean daniel sees this in aboit
600 bc
“And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
The first was like a lion, …..And behold another beast, a second,
like to a bear, …..After this I beheld, and lo
another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl;
the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.
After this I saw in the night visions, and
behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and
it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.”
Daniel 7:3-7 KJV
He’s seen four beasts with seven heads and ten horns. Now 6-700 yrs later John is explaining the beast he sees and five of its heads have already risen and ruled and fallen
one was ruling in johns time and only one of the seven was left to rise ….
john sees
“And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.”
Revelation 13:1-2 KJV
about when he explains it we find out five of the rulers that are the heads have
already come and gone in johns past.
“And there are seven kings:
five are fallen,
and
one is,
and
the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. And
the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.”
Revelation 17:10-12 KJV
the thing is John reveals a lot that Daniel never did because the events had just begun because Babylon and king nebucadnezzar is the first kingdom according to daniels dreams and visions but John lived in the time of Roman emperor Titus and Nero . And so what he’s seeing is for for johns time and tells of things also after .
tbey do see the same things as a macro vision but different parts are highlighted by each im each timeframe ( early prophets , latter messianic prophets , New Testament prophets and apostles like John ) because of thier times and what was happening in thier times in Jerusalem.
There’s really no establishing a timeline with the numbers but within the things they all saw and heard thier perspectives each offers different details and explainations of those same things they saw so it provides a fuller understanding it’s how Hebrew apocalyptic writing style works. Those differing perspectives placed together offer fuller grasp of what’s happening
