Revelation 1–5

Overview

What thoughts come to mind when you think about the book of Revelation? The Apostle John, who wrote the book, declared, “Blessed are they who read, and they who hear and understand the words of this prophecy” (Joseph Smith Translation, Revelation 1:3 [in the Bible appendix]). In the book of Revelation, you will find rich symbolism and imagery that will teach you about Jesus Christ, Heavenly Father’s plan, and the Second Coming of the Savior. You will also see how Jesus Christ and His followers rise triumphant above Satan and the kingdoms of men. Written to the seven churches in Asia during a time of severe persecution, the book of Revelation can help you faithfully overcome the difficulties of the last days and prepare for the Savior’s return.
