SUMMARY. We conclude with a brief resume of the contents of The Revelation. Chapter I is the introduction, fixing the circumstances, human writer, and divine Revealer. Chapter II and III are addressed to the seven churches of Asia; simple plain messages, and not allegorical or symbolical prophecies. Chapters IV to XI inclusive are visions of events and judgments that lead up to and culminate in the destruction of Jerusalem and the Jewish state, the first great persecutor of the Christian church. Chapters XII to XIX inclusive are visions of events and judgments that culminate in the overthrow of pagan Rome, the second great persecutor, and the triumph of Christ and his cause over the hostile forces of a wicked world. Chapter XX embraces the binding of Satan, the millennium, the post-millennial period, and the universal resurrection and the final judgment of the human race, with the destiny of the wicked in the lake of fire. Chapter XXI and five verses of Chapter XXII present the destiny and blessedness of the righteous in the new heavens and new earth, in which the new Jerusalem is particularly described. Chapter XXII:6-21, is the conclusion of the book, reverting to the historical standpoint at the beginning of The Revelation.
