Synopsis:
What New Testament book bewilders most Christians? Of course, the book of Revelation. Many people ignore it because it seems unreal and unrelated to Christian living. Others see it as a fascinating enigma, and they propose a variety of schemes to answer every symbolic reference. While fully aware of the various theories of interpretation, Dr. Robbins is primarily concerned in this book with clarifying what the writer was trying to say to his original readers. He provides a practical exposition with little attention given to critical problems. He feels that the basic message is timeless, full of hope and promise in every age. Here is fresh, clear light on a book that has been shrouded by extreme and sometimes fanatic interpreters.
About the Author: Ray F. Robbins was a professor of New Testament at Samford University (1946-1952) and at New Orleans Baptist Seminary (1952-1981). A native of Alabama and a graduate of Mississippi College (B.A.), Southern Baptist Seminary (Th.M., Th.D.), and University of Edinburgh (Ph.D.), Dr. Robbins also worked as a pastor and Bible conference leader.
