Can anyone tell me, which eschatology view Fairbairn hold to ?
Was he a post or a-millenniumsit ? Did he also holds to a historical view ?
Any information would be helpfull.
I know that he wrote "The Interpretation of Prophecy".
Any thoughts or reviews ?

"To our mind, either everything or nothing must be held in subjection to the will and providence of God. Even the wickedness of ungodly men is restricted by predestination, so that the wrath of man shall praise God, and the remainder of wrath He will restrain." - GILBERT BEEBE (1800-1881)

He was postmillenial historicist - as seems clear from his "Interpretation of Prophecy" and "Ezekiel".
His "Typology" and "Revelation of Law in Scripture" are also excellent books to wade through, and, like all his books, "eminently sane."
It is especially important that books on eschatology be "eminently sane", when there is so much on eschatology that is "eminently insane".

I got the same impressions from reading "The Interpretation of Prophecy."

That is correct to a certain extent, but he sought to incorporate an idealist interpretation in many places.
