The symbolism of the book of Revelation, the author tells us, "belongs to the first century, not to our own age. Twentieth-century men accordinly find it difficult and tend to dismiss it as irrelevant. This is unfortunate, because its theology of power is of the utmost importance to an age as preoccupied with the problems of power as is ours." In this long-awaited commentary of the final book of the Bible, Dr. Morris attempts to explain the significance of its symbolism, and show the bearing of its message on Living Christianity today. Though the author does not align himself with any of the usual schools of interpretation, he evidences thorough awareness of the various positions that have been taken, and carefully weighs the issues involved. "It is my hope," he writes, "that I have been able to point towards the solution of enough of the more obvious difficulties for some modern readers to be able to discern the main thrust of the book."
