The Apocalypse of St. John

The Book of Revelation, often called the Apocalypse of St. John, is one of the central texts of the New Testament.

Yet, despite its importance, it is frequently the most misunderstood work in the entire Bible.

St. Jerome tells us that â€œThe Apocalypse has as many mysteries as words â€” or rather mysteries in every word.â€

Reverend Elwood Sylvester Berry here explains in a simple scholarly way each section of St. Johnâ€™s work to help us view this essential text with pleasure and understanding.

Dividing the Book into three parts, Berry helps the reader comprehend the meaning of St. Johnâ€™s words and places them within the fascinating context of the time that they were written.

Part I covers from the days of St. John to the opening of the abyss, Part II from the opening of the abyss to its closing and Part III covers from the closing of the abyss to the end of the world.

As Revelation 1:3 states Blessed is he that readeth and heareth the words of this prophecy; and keepeth those things which are written in it. Berryâ€™s fascinating work should aid any reader wishing to truly hear and understand the words of this prophecy.

Reverend Elwood Sylvester Berry was professor at Mount St. Maryâ€™s Seminary in Maryland. He wrote a number of commentaries on the Bible, The Apocalypse of St. John, published in 1921, was one of his first. He died in 1954.
