The Divine Key to the Revelation of Jesus Christ - As Given to John, the Seer of Patmos #225410

In the introductory chapter are stated the grounds for my conviction that the Revelation proper (not the entire Book) is wholly symbolic. The establishment of this point I regard as of fundamental importance in reaching any clear and legitimate conclusions. The reasons urged in its support, its uniform application in detail throughout the three visions canvassed, and the resulting beautiful harmony, must speak for themselves. Of their imperfect presentation I am deeply sensible, and on that score I sincerely crave the indulgence of my readers, specially of those whose critical acumen is sure to detect blemishes.
