Book of Revelation Summary: The Lamb’s Victory Now—and the Consummation to Come. Revelation (Greek ἀποκάλυψις / apokálypsis, “unveiling”) is not a codebook for newspaper prophecy but a pastoral prophecy meant to fortify the church’s witness (Greek μαρτυρία / martyría), shape her worship, and call her to conquer (Greek νικάω / nikáō). It reveals Jesus Messiah as the slain-and-standing Lamb who rules now and will return in glory.

Interpretations of Revelation: Three Views Explained. The Book of Revelation has been the subject of more speculation, more sensationalism, and more confusion than perhaps any other book in the Bible.

Each offers a lens, but only one aligns with the weight of biblical and historical evidence.
