Summary

New Testament scholars know the writer of the book of Revelation frequently makes use of the Old Testament。 That awareness is not at all common for many of its readers。 As with much of its content， though， the issue is not as straightforward as one might presume。 For example， scholars regularly note that， despite hundreds of links back into the Old Testament on the part of John， the author of Revelation， none of the links are direct， word-for-word complete citations。 Often， the citations are more allusions than quotations， and John frequently combines them so that their meaning in his mind is not intuitive to today’s reader。

Scholars specializing in this field have devised various approaches to understand John’s use of the Old Testament， a crucial requirement to comprehending the book’s meaning and theology。 The goal of this book， utilizing the scholarly sources employed in the Naked Bible Podcast series on the topic， is to provide readers with a solid Scripture based grasp of this enigmatic New Testament book。
