Eugene Peterson says this about the final book of the Bible, “We do not read the Revelation to get additional information about life and faith in Christ. We have read it all before in law and prophet, gospel and epistle. Everything in the Revelation can be found in the previous sixty-five books of the Bible. The Revelation adds nothing of substance to what we already know. The truth of the gospel is already complete, revealed in Jesus Christ. There is nothing new to say on the subject. But, there is a new way to say it. We read the Revelation not to get more information but to revive our imaginations. The imagination is our way into the divine imagination, permitting us to see wholly - as whole and holy- what we perceived as scattered, as order what we perceives as random.”
