    55. Page 269

    Reference is again made to the year 1798, on the basis of its being the date for the end of the 1260 years. On the same page the French Revolution is called “the Revolution of 1793;” but at the top of page 282, it is said:WWPGC 19.3

    “At the opening of the Revolution, by a concession of the kind, the people were granted a representation exceeding that of the nobles and the clergy combined.”WWPGC 19.4

    This concession was made at the convocation of the States-General in 1789, which would, according to this statement, then be the opening of the Revolution. This is historically correct. But the Revolution could then not properly be spoken of as “the Revolution of 1793.”WWPGC 19.5

    Response: Negative. No change.WWPGC 19.6
