Summary "The Expositor's Bible: The Book of Revelation" by William Milligan is a theological commentary written in the late 19th century. This work seeks to provide an analysis of the Book of Revelation from the New Testament, aiming to elucidate its broader meanings rather than focusing exhaustively on detailed verse-by-verse explanations. Milligan emphasizes understanding the text as a revelation of Jesus Christ and the patterns within the early Christian churches, addressing themes of struggle and victory over evil. The opening of the commentary establishes its structure and intent, highlighting the significance of Revelation as not merely a mystery but a divine unveiling of God's eternal plan. Milligan begins with an introduction that outlines the purpose and expectations of the text. He intends to guide readers through an understanding of the different church communities addressed by John, the author of Revelation, while situating these messages within the theological context of early Christianity. The narrative sets a solemn yet hopeful tone, promising blessings to those who heed the prophetic words and underscoring the vital connection between Christ's teachings and the resilience of the Christian spirit amidst trials. Milligan's method of approaching the content in thematic sections fosters a holistic understanding of the key messages within the apocalypse. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
