Introduction to the Book of Revelation
Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In his exploration of the book of Revelation, Bible scholar Steve Gregg notes that the text comprises three genres: prophecy, epistle, and apocalypse. The book uses symbolic language to convey messages, and biblical numbers are often used symbolically to convey completeness or minority status. Interpreting the text requires understanding its historical and cultural context, and there are different approaches to its interpretation, including futurist, preterist, and idealist views. Regardless of the approach taken, Gregg stresses the importance of biblical context, language study, and symbolic interpretation in understanding the Book of Revelation.
