Ever since it was written the Revelation to John has both baffled
and fascinated its readers, chiefly because its language is so
strange and the visions it describes so mysterious. Those
unfamiliar with the language of apocalyptic can easily misinterpret
its message, and it can puzzle those who forget that John was
writing of what he believed would 'soon take place', in order to
warn, guide and comfort particular people in a specific historical
situation. Throughout the Guide the author has kept these two
considerations in view. His introduction sets the scene, with a
brief survey of the historical and literary background to the
Revelation and John's purpose in writing it. His Postscript points
to the remarkable similarity, as well as differences, between
John's time and our own. Study of the Bible text follows the usual
pattern for the series. Fuller notes on some general themes support
the detailed interpretation; the customary question material
includes subjects for discussion and research; and topical
photographs underline the relevance of John's message for the
Church in the world today.
