The Day of Their Calamity Is At Hand Deuteronomy 32

Deuteronomy 32:35 is a key text used by some to elasticize the time of last days prophecy. They look for ways to circumvent the simplicity of the time statments which mention that the Lord's coming was at hand in the New Testament. their goal is to construe O.T. passages in such a manner that the word At Hand loses all its temporal function for an event which would take place in a very short time.
