"The End of the World - At that time, Jesus said to his disciples:
When you shall see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken
of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place, he that readeth
let him understand…Matt. xxiv. 15-35
“The Apostles had asked Our Lord concerning the destruction of the
Temple of Jerusalem, and so important did it appear, that He
made them understand The catastrophe which is to destroy this
world and all its inhabitants must certainly be fearful, and the
destruction of Jerusalem was a foreboding of it. The great sign
which is to show that the end is near, is that there is to be
abomination in the Temple itself. When any one, then, stands in
the holy place and sees that filth, neglect and dishonor has come
upon it he may conclude that the end is near.
By this abomination of desolation in the holy place is understood literally,
the profanation of the Temple, that, to a certain degree, it was the
foreshadowing of the end of the world.” (Page 272)
