He described in detail about the progression of the great tribulation and how it will happen in 3 phases, similar to the progression of the 1st century attack on the city of Jerusalem.
So those pagan Romans were actually under the direction of Jehovah. The Almighty guided their actions so that He could then use the same formula for the Great Trib. It's all becoming clear to me, now.

Wow, how things change when you start thinking for yourself! As others have commented, we would have eaten this all up when we were still in. It's exciting to read something like this and see it for the gobble-dee-gook it really is.
