Appendix: Chronological/Topical Index

About the Chronological/Topical Index

This index is divided into two parts. Part 1 is a listing of future prophecies in chronological/topical order. Part 2 is a listing of the passages in Part1, in biblical order. Both listings are keyed to the timeline illustration (Figure A-1, p.247).

Part 1 is particularly useful when studying a specific topic or time period. Since the passages in Part 1 are grouped according to time and topic, finding other passages that relate to the same time or topic is simplified. Part 2 is helpful when studying a particular passage for which the reader needs to determine its chronological setting or to find cross-references for further study.

How To Use Part 1

To find references to topics related to a particular period:

 

1.   Locate the time period by scanning through the listing in Part 1 of this Index, or consult the Index Timeline to find the chronological tag (“A,” “B,” “C1,” “C2,” “D,” “E”) then lookup that tag in Part 1 of the Index. (Tags appear at the top of the Index Timeline.)

 

2.   Once the appropriate section of the Index is found, additional references to the subject or time period will be listed together.

 

To locate figures or tables dealing with a particular subject or time period: Find the chronological tag by scanning Part 1 of the index, or by consulting the Index Timeline.

 

Note:   (?) A question mark indicates uncertainty regarding the categorization of a reference. In addition, subheadings ending in a lower case letter may not be in strict chronological order when com­pared to other subheadings with a lower case letter in the same section. Generally, lower case letters appended to subheading indicate topical groupings.
