"But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams. And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy.". Four Visions of Daniel's Prophecies 4 The First 3 Sections of Daniel's Book Include : Arrival at court of Nebuchadnezzar Interpretation of king's dream. Four major events: Fiery Furnace King's THE PAST SIMPLE TENSE n avadni preteklik RABA Past simple uporabljamo, ko želimo opisati dogodke, ki so se zgodili v preteklosti . Dogodki so se zaključili v preteklosti in nič več ne trajajo. Enormous skyscrapers will house residents and workers who happily go for weeks without setting foot on the ground. Streamlined, hurricane-proof houses will pivot on their foundations like weather vanes. The family car will turn into an airplane so easily that a woman can do it in five minutes. Our wars will be fought by robots. And our living room furniture—waterproof, of course—will clean up with a squirt from the garden hose.In Yesterday\'s Tomorrows Joseph J. Corn and Brian Horrigan explore the future as Americans earlier in the last century expected it to happen. Filled with vivid color images and lively text, the book is eloquent testimony to the confidence—and, at times, the naive faith—Americans have had in science and technology. The future that emerges here, the authors conclude, is one in which technology changes, but society and politics usually do not.The authors draw on a wide variety of sources—popular-science magazines, science fiction, world fair exhibits, films, advertisements, and plans for things only dreamed of. From Jules Verne to the Jetsons, from a 500-passenger flying wing to an anti-aircraft flying buzz-saw, the vision of the future as seen through the eyes of the past demonstrates the play of the American imagination on the canvas of the future.
