This work offers an approach to the interpretation of the Apocalypse-not a full exposition. It is based upon belief that the Lord's last message to his servants is to be understood in the light of earlier apocalyptic writing; and that the symbols employed were as readily understood by the saints who were contemporary with their fulfilment as were the heraldic devices or political cartoons of later generations.
Based on a series of articles in The Christadelphian, the book provides an approach to interpretation of the Apocalypse. The symbols employed and the scripture background to the message are examined, leading to the strong exhortational content of the book.
