The following is a little essay on “Prophetic Apocalyptic Language” and how that particular language should affect our interpretation of the “new covenant” Scriptures. I would like to begin this little enterprise by citing a Bible passage: Folks, in my view, this chapter is of the utmost importance, for it is the chapter in which the Master, from a back-drop of that “Old Testament imagery,” uses the same language as the prophets, to describe the fall of Jerusalem, the temple, and the Jewish nation.", "Apocalypse (ἀποκάλυψις) is a Greek word meaning revelation, an unveiling or unfolding of things not previously known and which could not be known apart from the unveiling.. As a genre, apocalyptic literature details the authors' visions of the end times as revealed by an angel or other heavenly messenger. The imagery in apocalyptic literature is not realistic or reflective of the physical world as it was, but is rather surreal and fantastic, invoking a sense of wonder at the complete newness of the new order to come.", "The nodetitle (c. 150 b.c. ) is not, strictly speaking, an apocalyptic book; but it belongs to the same milieu and contains definite apocalyptic features. Its name is derived from its method of dividing history into “jubilee” periods of forty-nine years each; these, in turn, are subdivided into seven weeks of years. Whereas most apocalyptic writers leaned heavily on the ideas and expressions of their predecessors in the genre, it is less easy to say what actually gave rise to this style of writing.", "1 Hence the name. 2 Apocalyptic literature often uses prophetic vision formula to see the future, “and I saw...” This phrase appears many times in Revelation. 3 It is not in the earliest examples of the genre, however. 4 The literature uses mysterious and symbolic language. ", "Apocalyptic language is fairly common in Scripture — Many books of the Bible contain apocalyptic language. Perhaps the first use of this type of imagery is found in Psalm 18. The Old Covenant prophets frequently used apocalyptic language in their writing, especially the books of Isaiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, and Zechariah. Apocalyptic language brings comfort in uncertain times — Modern-day Americans know a thing or two about uncertainty. Though we may not know just what the future holds, apocalyptic language resounds with the theme that God holds an uncertain future in His hand. For example, the book of Revelation was written to seven churches who faced an uncertain future (cf. Rev. 2-3)", "An apocalypse (Ancient Greek: ἀποκάλυψις apokalypsis, apokálypsis from ἀπό and καλύπτω meaning), uncovering translated literally From, greek is a disclosure of, knowledge.i., e a lifting of the veil or. Revelation in religious contexts it is usually a disclosure of something. hidden Symbolism is a frequent characteristic of apocalyptic writing. One instance of this occurs where gematria is employed, either for obscuring the writer's meaning or enhancing it; as a number of ancient cultures used letters also as numbers (i.e. , the Romans with their use of Roman numerals ).", "The word apocalyptic, derived from the Greek word apokalypsis, means “revelation” or “unveiling,” and is applied to these writings because they contain alleged revelation of the secret purposes of God, the end of the world, and the establishment of God’s kingdom on earth.

Do you have any advice for getting tulips to come back year after year after year, like my daffodils and crocus do? Answer: Hybrid tulips are not strongly perennial in most gardens. This ensures large bulbs that will bloom well one year, but then they typically split themselves into smaller bulbs that can take years to grow back to blooming size. Also, tulips are native to areas such as the Turkish mountains where they receive no rainfall in summer and enjoy excellent drainage.", "If you decide to try to get your tulips to rebloom year after year, the most important things you can do is choose the right location to plant your tulips. The location MUST be well drained and in full sun. The more intense the sun the better. This dry soil will help tulips bloom. Plant only old fashioned tulips. While the newer hybrids are very spectacular, they are far less likely to rebloom from year to year. The old fashions tulips (heirlooms) are more forgiving when it comes to getting the right environment and are more likely to bloom year after year.", "Tulips are an elegant blossom, long valued for their beauty and grace. Tulips have a place in the garden and in cut flower bouquets, or they may be planted in indoor pots to bring color to your home. Tulips are grown from bulbs and may blossom year after year in your flowerbeds, depending upon your climate. Some gardeners opt to re-use their bulbs each year, while others simply discard the old bulbs and start over with new ones each year. If you do want to reuse your tulip bulbs from year to year, cut the flower short approximately three weeks after blooming. Six to eight weeks later, dig the bulbs out of the ground and store. Chill at 40 degrees to 45 degrees Fahrenheit for eight to 10 weeks before re-planting", "1 Plant tulip bulbs deep -- about eight inches deep, measuring from the base of the bulb. 2 Note: If you add mulch to the surface after planting, include its depth as a part of your overall planting depth. ( 3 For instance, 5 inches deep in soil plus 3 inches of mulch = 8 inches deep.). 4 Water bulbs after planting. The tulip as duly noted in horticultural texts is a perennial flower. This means that a tulip should be expected to return and bloom year after year. But for all intents and purposes this isn't always the case. Most tulip-lovers content themselves with treating it as an annual, re-planting again each fall.", "While you do not need to dig and divide your tulips every year; they should be dug up at least 3-4 years if planted in the ground. If you are not digging them up yearly, make sure they are not in an area of the yard where they will be watered all summer. Too much water over the summer will rot/kill your bulbs. ", "Tulips are a different type of bulb and in turn multiply much differently than daffodils-tulip bulbs grow to a top size and then shatter into many smaller bulbs of which probably none will be of even blooming size for several more years. An alternative is to plant these bulbs in a container such as a pot or can, with holes in the bottom for drainage, and this will protect them from those types of pests. Deer are also a problem for tulip flowers once they have sprouted up, they like to eat the flowers right off at the ground. So keep that in mind.", "Planting Time. Although tulips can flower within one year of planting, they do not begin to send up foliage and buds immediately. Late fall, about four weeks before the first expected frost, provides the best planting time for tulip bulbs. The bulbs remain semi-dormant through winter as they develop strong root systems. Tulips bloom in several colors. Tulips (Tulipa spp.) grow from bulbs that store all the nutrients and energy the plants require to bloom in spring. Most tulips grow as perennials in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 3 through 8, with a few varieties hardy up to zone 9. Tulip bulbs can bloom within one year of being sown when they are planted and cared for properly", "Shop for Tulip Bulbs.
