A Brief Commentary on the Apocalypse, Vol. 2 (Classic Reprint)

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief Commentary on the Apocalypse, Vol. 2 The Bible is its own interpreter and when practicable, scripture should be explained by scripture. The meaning imputed to any passage must never contradict, but must harmonize with that of parallel texts. In illustrating the several references in the Apocalypse to the same events and epochs, a repetition of scripture is somewhat unavoidable.
