그 때에 네 민족을 호위하는 대군 미가엘이 일어날 것이요 또 환난이 있으리니 이는 개국 이래로 그 때까지 없던 환난일 것이며 그 때에 네 백성 중 무릇 책에 기록된 모든 자가 구원을 얻을 것이라
다니엘서 12:1
An Invitation to the New Church # 10
10. The "fulness of time" also signifies consummation and desolation: the reason is that "time" signifies the state of the Church (see Revelation 10:6; and in Ezekiel). The same also is signified by "a time, times, and half a time" [see Revelation 12:14; Daniel 7:25; 12:7]. Times in the world are spring, summer, autumn; and the fulness of them is winter. Times as to light are morning, noon, evening; and the fulness of these is night, etc. , etc. This is meant by the Lord's coming being in "the fulness of time" or of "times;" that is, when there is no longer any truth of faith and good of charity remaining. (Concerning "the fulness of time," see Romans 11:12, 25; Galatians 4:4, and, especially, Ephesians 1:9, 10; Genesis 15:16).
