The Revelation of St. John the Divine: An Interpretation

The Revelation of St. John the Divine: An Interpretation, published in 1897 by A. H. Ames, is a theological commentary on the last book of the New Testament. Ames analyzes the symbols and themes within Revelation, emphasizing its spiritual significance concerning the kingdom of Christ and the role of the Church. He presents an interpretive approach that includes examining the structure of the text, the importance of Old Testament references, and the meaning of numbers, while also discussing the letters to the seven churches as reflections of the Church's spiritual state across time.
