Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Commentary on the Revelation of St. John, the Divine But is this book absolutely dark. So that it is impossible for us to get at the meaning at all Is It impossible to do anything to throw light on the chaos? We think not. If anything can be done, ought we not to do it'? Those preachers who seek to create excitement and alarm who operate upon the fears of the weak and uninstructed do. Not fail to resort to this book. Its sublime metaphors and allegories, when misapplied, furnish them with rich subjects. Why should not a counter effort be made to explain it? Let us apply the principles of sound criticism to the interpretation, and we may do something towards bringing out the true sense of the book. Let us gain what light we can now, and wait for the advancing day to bring us more. With these feelings we have entered upon the effort before us.

This book was released on 2018-01-15 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annotations on the Revelation of St. John the Divine The aim of the writer has been to follow the clear teaching of Scripture, and he has sought everywhere to interpret the prophecies here recorded, concerning the Second Coming of Christ and the events of the Last Day, in the same way and spirit in which the New Tes tament writers interpret the prophecies in the Old Testament concerning the Messiah and His First Advent. After repeated study of all the Old Testament quotations found in the New Testament, the writer can come to no other conclusion than this, that the Book of Revelation bears the same relation to the Christian Church to-day as the prophecies of Daniel, Ezekiel, and Zechariah did to the Jewish Church after the Exile, and that if we interpret the Apocalypse in the same spirit as Christ and the writers of the New Testament interpreted these prophecies of the Old Testament, we cannot fall greatlv into error. Incorrect as many of the expositions given in these notes possibly may be, still the writer believes that in this direction alone the truth is to be found.

Download or read book The Revelation of St John the Divine written by Michael F. Sadler and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Revelation of St. John the Divine: With Notes Critical and Practical We must examine the authenticity of the Apocalypse in the same way as we have that of other books of the rest of the New Testament. The authenticity of any book which entitles it to form part of the Sacred Canon depends upon its reception by the Church from the first. With respect to the book of the Revelation we have Justin Martyr (about a.d.140) writing as follows: "And further, there was a certain man with us whose name was John, one of the Apostles of Christ, who prophesied, by a Revelation that was made to him, that those who believed in our Christ should dwell a thousand years in Jerusalem, and that thereafter the general, and, in short, the eternal resurrection and judgment of all men should likewise take place" ("Dialogue with Trypho," sect.81). Now it is very remarkable that this is the only place in which Justin mentions an Apostle by name. Throughout his works which are extant he constantly refers to the Apostles, and the companions of the Apostles, but does not name any one of them; and this is the solitary place in which he refers to an Apostle by name. The ecclesiastical memory of Justin Martyr must have reached to the times of St. John himself. If he was martyred - say in or about 150 - he must have conversed with many middle aged or old men who were contemporary with the Apostle in his later years; so that it was impossible for him to have been mistaken as to the authorship of a work attributed to the Apostle. Then we have Irenaeus, about a.d. 170 or 180, that is, he lived within less than a century after the time to which early writers assign the date of the Apocalypse. I have now before me an index of his quotations from, or references to, Scripture, and from this I gather that he refers to the Apocalypse thirty-one times.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Instructions on the Revelation of St. John the Divine: Being an Attempt to Make This Book More Intelligible to the Ordinary Reader and So to Encourage the Study of It Some time ago I was much struck by a suggestion made by Professor Milligan, in his valuable Lectures on the Apocalypse, to the effect that the Revelation of St. John might be regarded as an extended account of Our Lord's discourses on the four last things. I had long felt that the book was misunderstood, that it was one for all time, and that its glorious revelation could not be satisfied by any theory which limited it to mere history, to the dynasties of the world, or to the de lineations of papacy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes Illustrative of the Meaning and Application of the Figures Employed by St. John the Divine in the Revelation of Jesus Christ Verse 2 Who bare record of the word of Goth - This word, or revelation of God - a large portion of which has already had its fulfillment since the commencement of the period embraced in it, the demonstration of the truth of which may be gathered from the world's history during this period to the present time - certainly does bear as clear testimony to the divine claims of Jesus Christ as any reasonable man could desire, or as could be furnished to the mind of man constituted as he is - by Inspiration itself. And while the word bears unequivocal testimony, in the strongest and most emphatic language - as we shall see in many places - to the truly divine nature of Jesus Christ, the record itself is not wanting m testimony to its divinely-inspired authority, the internal evidence of which is truly abundant, and absolutely irresistible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Revelation of S. John the Divine: With Notes and Introduction The General Editor of The Cambridge Bible for Schools thinks it right to say that he does not hold himself responsible either for the interpretation of particular passages which the Editors of the several Books have adopted, or for any opinion on points of doctrine that they may have expressed. In the New Testament more especially questions arise of the deepest theological import, on which the ablest and most conscientious interpreters have differed and always will differ. His aim has been in all such cases to leave each Contributor to the unfettered exercise of his own judgment, only taking care that mere controversy should as far as possible be avoided.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Vision We Forget: A Layman's Reading of the Book of the Revelation of St. John the Divine Hen I wrote The Christ We Forget and The C hnrch We Forget, I had only the usual distant acquaintance with The Vision We Forget. I was fa miliar with certain favourite passages in the Book of Revelation, but that was all. It was with a certain zest, therefore, that I began to read this book as a whole, with my own eyes and nobody else's, and I soon found that I was in touch with a supreme product, whatever more it may be, of the human mind. There are doubt less innumerable treatises Ou the Apocalypse which I ought to have studied, and I did try one or two, but I found them less interesting than the Book itself and sometimes more perplexing. On prophetic systems, any opinion from me would be valueless, but in John of Patmos I greet one who seems to have compre hended this world in which somehow I have to live. As a father to a child, he tells me how the Christ he remembered looks at things here and now - what part the Christ plays in our drama - what greater part He will play when the time comes. I have no idea how John carneto put on paper much that I have read. All I know is that John's words are there. And the words fit facts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gospel, Epistles, and Revelation of St. John: Edited, With an Introduction and Notes The application of this principle to the present case seems to follow naturally from what has already been said. St. John's work is a gospel: accordingly, like the other gospels, it will be made up of the the Acts and Sayings of Jesus. But its prologue has set forth a very special pur pose for the narrative the support of a theological position. In accordance with this we find, as a fact, that the 'acts of Jesus become in St. John's narrative 'signs, ' and the 'sayings' are all of the nature of 'witness.' From this point of view the work falls into natural divisions: seven incidents constitute the Earlier Signs and Witness of Jesus, seven more his Signs and Witness to the Jews; four divisions comprise the Signs and Witness among his own Disciples, and the three phases of the final Passion and Resurrection history may again be treated as Signs and Witness.
