Book Description
Excerpt from Annotations on the Revelation of St. John the Divine The aim of the writer has been to follow the clear teaching of Scripture, and he has sought everywhere to interpret the prophecies here recorded, concerning the Second Coming of Christ and the events of the Last Day, in the same way and spirit in which the New Tes tament writers interpret the prophecies in the Old Testament concerning the Messiah and His First Advent. After repeated study of all the Old Testament quotations found in the New Testament, the writer can come to no other conclusion than this, that the Book of Revelation bears the same relation to the Christian Church to-day as the prophecies of Daniel, Ezekiel, and Zechariah did to the Jewish Church after the Exile, and that if we interpret the Apocalypse in the same spirit as Christ and the writers of the New Testament interpreted these prophecies of the Old Testament, we cannot fall greatlv into error. Incorrect as many of the expositions given in these notes possibly may be, still the writer believes that in this direction alone the truth is to be found.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Revelation of St. John the Divine: With Notes Critical and Practical We must examine the authenticity of the Apocalypse in the same way as we have that of other books of the rest of the New Testament. The authenticity of any book which entitles it to form part of the Sacred Canon depends upon its reception by the Church from the first. With respect to the book of the Revelation we have Justin Martyr (about a.d.140) writing as follows: "And further, there was a certain man with us whose name was John, one of the Apostles of Christ, who prophesied, by a Revelation that was made to him, that those who believed in our Christ should dwell a thousand years in Jerusalem, and that thereafter the general, and, in short, the eternal resurrection and judgment of all men should likewise take place" ("Dialogue with Trypho," sect.81). Now it is very remarkable that this is the only place in which Justin mentions an Apostle by name. Throughout his works which are extant he constantly refers to the Apostles, and the companions of the Apostles, but does not name any one of them; and this is the solitary place in which he refers to an Apostle by name. The ecclesiastical memory of Justin Martyr must have reached to the times of St. John himself. If he was martyred - say in or about 150 - he must have conversed with many middle aged or old men who were contemporary with the Apostle in his later years; so that it was impossible for him to have been mistaken as to the authorship of a work attributed to the Apostle. Then we have Irenaeus, about a.d. 170 or 180, that is, he lived within less than a century after the time to which early writers assign the date of the Apocalypse. I have now before me an index of his quotations from, or references to, Scripture, and from this I gather that he refers to the Apocalypse thirty-one times.
