This is the Rev. Clarence Larkin's guide to the Book of Revelation.
Larkin, who published several books about biblical studies in the
1910s and 20s, was a 'Dispensationalist, ' one of the threads of
modern Evangelical Christianity. The predecessor of Larkin is J.N.
Darby, the founder of Dispensationalism, and among his many
successors are Hal Lindsay, and the Left Behind books. Unlike more
recent authors, however, Larkin does not make any claims to know
when or exactly how the prophecies will unfold. Rather he takes us
on a grand tour of the Apocalypse of St. John, and guides us
through its images, symbols and poetry. Larkin sorts out what could
be a reference to an actual event or person, (without attempting
any particular association) and what is pure symbolism. Larkin uses
bold type extensively for emphasis, as well as some superb 'visual
aids' in the form of intricate charts and maps. Contrasted with
other prophetic books such as Nostradamus and the Sibylline
Oracles, Revelation has a consistent narrative with a beginning,
middle and end. It is also one of the essential sacred texts and
required reading for anyone interested in religion. This book will
be a welcome reference for anyone studying or trying to explain
Revelation, whether or not they are Dispensationalists
