The Sealed Book and Revelation Old Testament: The sealed book in the Old Testament refers to the prophetic scriptures that were not understood until their fulfillment. Isaiah 29 and Ezekiel 3 illustrate how these prophecies were sealed, meaning their true meaning was hidden until the time of their realization.
