Excerpt
Excerpt: From the very beginning, cranks and crackpots have attempted to use Revelation to advocate some new twist on the Chicken Little Doctrine: The Sky 1S Fallingl But, as I hope to show in this exposition, St. John?s Apocalypse teaches instead that Christians will overcome all opposition through the work of Jesus Christ. My study has convinced me that a true understanding of this prophecy must be based on the proper application of five crucial interpretive keys: // 1. Revelation is the most ?Biblica book in the Bible. St. John quotes hundreds of passages from the Old Testament, often with subtle allusions to little-known religious rituals of the Hebrew people. In order to understand Revelation, we need to know our Bibles backward and forward. One reason why this commentary is so large is that I have tried to explain this extensive Biblical background, commenting on numerous portions of Scripture that shed light on St. John?s prophecy. I have also reprinted, as Appendix A, Philip Barrington?s excellent survey of the Levitical symbolism in Revelation.
