Summary "Notes on the New Testament, Explanatory and Practical: Revelation" by Albert Barnes is a religious commentary written in the mid-19th century. This scholarly work seeks to provide thorough explanations and interpretations of the Book of Revelation, aiming to clarify its complex symbolism and historical context. The book serves as a practical guide for readers striving to understand the theological implications of Revelation, enhancing their study of the New Testament. The opening of the commentary introduces the author’s preface, where Barnes reflects on his journey in writing the series of notes over two decades. Initially intending to cover just the Gospels, Barnes elaborates on the unexpected expansion of his work to the entirety of the New Testament. He expresses a commitment to offering clear explanations without imposing a predetermined theory, acknowledging the mystery and complexity surrounding the Book of Revelation. He shares insights into his methodical approach, which aims to achieve clarity through careful analysis of the text, supported by historical references, most notably from Edward Gibbon's "Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire." This beginning sets the stage for a thoughtful exploration of the intricate themes and symbols within Revelation. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
