+## Streaming Reads
+
+Iceberg supports processing incremental data in spark structured streaming  
jobs which starts from a historical timestamp:
+
+```scala
+val spark:SparkSession = ...
+val tableIdentifier: String = ...
+
+val df = spark.readStream
+    .format("iceberg")
+    .option(SparkReadOptions.STREAM_FROM_TIMESTAMP, 
Long.toString(streamStartTimestamp))
+    .load(tableIdentifier)
+```
+
+The `tableIdentifier`  can be any valid table identifier or table path. Refer 
[TableIdentifier](https://iceberg.apache.org/javadoc/0.12.1/org/apache/iceberg/catalog/TableIdentifier.html)

Review comment:
       done. In addition, should we explain TableIdentifer etc in 
https://iceberg.apache.org/#terms/ section or elsewhere? . This may be useful 
to developers.
