Dear jbagwell, You state,"Of t he 404 verses in Revelation, only 126 contain no allusion to the old testament." Please provide the source for this information. Also, please tell me one of the 126 verses in Revelation that does not allude to the OT? Bless you, Love Fountain Rev 1:1-3 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: 2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. 3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.

Rev 1:1 The source for this information is me I counted them, and I used the word "allusion" in the context of john symbilizing words, numbers, animals etc... and yes I am sure that the whole book alludes to the OT after all it is Revelations, however, I was samply speaking of tracable ref: to the OT not Implied but literal. Thanks for the checkup and keeping me honest but I have found that when speaking of my Fav: book revelations I stay literal meaning of words not implied that sould be up to the seeker. God gave unto him by his angel that "signified it" unto his servent john. signified signs and symbols |
