For many readers of this book, this will be the first interpretation of Revelation that will change how they look at Christian belief, prophecy, and sacred scripture. They will have grown up in one of another interpretation of Revelation, blissfully unaware of the controversies around that interpretation. They will think that prophecy proves history instead of history proving prophecy.I will show how the prophecies and visions of Revelation line up with the historical events that unfolded through the course of the first and second centuries, from the Year of Four Emperors in 69 A. D. to Commodus and the Year of Five Emperors in 192 A. D.This interpretation follows the principles of the Preterist approach to Daniel. In Daniel Chapter 7, four beats come from the waters in succession. These beasts are four empires, which come in succession. I will focus on the fourth best and his tenth horn. This horn will be the tenth, and he will be a king that will subdue three other kings. The fourth best is the Roman Empire, which followed the Greek Empire, which followed the Persian Empire, which followed the Babylonian Empire. The tenth emperor of Rome (if we count Julius Caesar as an emperor) was Vespasian. Vespasian was the fourth emperor in the Year of Four Emperors. That's what it means that he subdued three other kings. Vespasian then destroyed Jerusalem. This took three and a half years, which is what verse 25 calls "a time and times and the dividing of time."For some people, these answers are too satisfying. The Book of Daniel is an ancient tomb, and it reads as though it were originally several independent sources stitched together independently. There's no way to know for certain that all of these assembled texts originate at the same point. If this vision is that accurate, two possibilities present themselves: either it was divinely inspired, or it was composed or edited after the events it predicts.I can give very compelling reasons to believe that the Book of Revelation was old when Emperor Marcus came to power and when a plague ravished his empire. Yet the Book of Revelation predicts this every bit as clearly, according to my interpretation. Every component of how I interpret the Book of Daniel can be found elsewhere.
