About this ebook

Informative and non-sensationalistic, Understanding the Book of Revelation explores the literary genre and historical situation and purpose of Revelation, along with interpretive approaches to it. This digital short also includes an outlined overview of the book’s content and reflections on its overarching theological message. Easy to read but substantiated by solid scholarship and biblical study, Understanding the Book of Revelation is a handy reference tool for personal Bible study or Bible teachers tackling this admittedly difficult book of the Bible. This short is derived from a longer resource entitled the Dictionary of Biblical Prophecy and End Times.
