Synopsis

An Essay Towards A New Explication Of The Doctrines Of The Resurrection, Millennium, And Judgment: Being The Substance Of Several Discourses On The 20Th Chapter Of The Revelation Of St. John. To Which Are Added Three Dissertations" by Sayer Rudd (M.D.) presents a theological treatise that reinterprets Revelation. It argues for a twofold reign of Christ—a spiritual reign prior to the second coming and a personal, visible reign after—and outlines a four-part chronology of church history as depicted in Revelation. The work synthesizes Revelation with Ezekiel, Daniel, Joel and patristic writings, critiques older eschatological schemes, and advocates a literal millennium, a sequence of prophetic timeframes (including 1260 years, 1290 days, 1335 days), and the eventual universal church. It emphasizes the separation of kingdoms, a dual-fulfillment hermeneutic, and a goal of presenting a coherent, scripturally grounded prophecy that culminates in the final judgment and new creation. The intended audience is scholars and readers interested in Reformation-era eschatology and prophetic history.
