The Appendixes – Extra Resource Material.

(See links to the right under "Special Sections on the Home Page)

         During my study I came across a lot of material that, although I found interesting, I was unable to include in my study. Some of this material I felt would still be of use in a in-depth Revelation study so I’ve added a number of Appendixes that I believe could be useful in your study.

Appendix A – A Brief Survey of the Book of Revelation.

This is a summary or survey of the book with only a short paragraph or so for each chapter. It is designed to give you an overall view of the entire book quickly. This survey is very similar to my first study of Revelation.

Appendix B – Summary of the Plagues of Egypt and Revelation.

Since there is a strong similarity between the plagues of Egypt and the three sets of plagues found in Revelation it maybe useful to see them laid out together so they can be easily compared.

Appendix C – Symbolism of Numbers, Colours and Animals.

A strong theme of Revelation is the use of numbers, colours and animals. There is also list of some of these to give you an idea of their symbolic meanings.

Appendix D – Old Testament Background to Revelation.

Another characteristic of Revelation is the use of images from other parts of the scriptures to tell its story. While most of these are not direct quotes from their original passages they are easily identified as to where their roots came from. This is a list of many of these images.

Appendix E – Parts of Daniel Relating to Revelation.

There is a very close relationship between parts of Daniel and Revelation, particularly in chapter 17. Here is a short survey of these sections of Daniel. 

This appendix also contains background material on the four great empires and their Kings mentioned in Daniel.

Appendix F – Rome & the Emperors of the 1st Century.

The Roman Empire plays a major role in the Revelation story, particularly the Emperors of the 1^st century. Here is the list of these Emperors with brief backgrounds on their lives.

Appendix G – The Angels of Revelation.

Throughout the Revelation story many angels play various roles. Here is a list of these angels and where they appear in the story.

Appendix H – Death, Resurrection and Eternity.

When we get to the last few chapters of Revelation and we read about the 1^st death and the 2^nd death and the 1^st resurrection and the 2^nd resurrection we can get very confused. Here is a small self-contained study of this whole area of Death, Resurrection & Eternity.

Appendix I – Practical Lessons from the Book of Revelation.

So what did we learn from our study of Revelation. What practical lessons can be found that we can apply to our lives today? Here is a list of some of them.
