The book of Daniel was sealed until recently, namely until the end of the 1260 years (1798).

At the end of the sixth trumpet Angel appears with the open book (in 1840), i.e. with the book of Daniel (Dan 12.4,9 ; Rev 10.7, 11.14). This means that the book will be explored and preached in this term to all - at sea and on land       (Rev 10.1-2).  "Time no longer", that is, at that time, after all the prophetic periods. The longest of them ends in 1844.

"And I took the little book out of the Angel's hand, and ate it; and it's in my mouth was as sweet as honey; when eaten, the bitter was in the belly of my" (Rev 10.10).

"Eating a book" - means to thoroughly research, her "sweetness" means the joy of expectation, and the bitterness in the belly "is a disappointment", but the first adventists, awaiting the coming of Christ October 22, 1844.
