| Summary |
"The World English Bible (WEB): Revelation" is a religious text attributed to an anonymous author, widely recognized as the last book of the New Testament in Christian tradition. Written during the late 1st century, it serves as a crucial piece of apocalyptic literature that explores themes of prophecy, judgment, and the ultimate triumph of good over evil. The book specifically addresses the end times, including the second coming of Christ and the final judgment. In "Revelation," the vision unfolds through a series of vivid and symbolic encounters experienced by John while on the island of Patmos. The narrative begins with letters to seven churches in Asia Minor, providing both commendations and admonitions regarding their spiritual status. As the book progresses, it reveals a series of catastrophic events, including the opening of seals that unleash various plagues upon the earth, culminating in fierce battles between divine forces and evil entities symbolized by a dragon and two beasts. Ultimately, it presents a vision of hope and restoration, where a new heaven and new earth await the faithful, reinforcing the final triumph of God's kingdom and the promise of eternal life for those who remain steadfast in their faith.
