Proper Interpretation
The book of Revelation must be interpreted literally, using words in their natural, normal, and usual meaning. While word pictures appear in the book of Revelation, it avoids reliance on symbolism or decoding not found in the Bible. Understanding Revelation requires interpreting Scripture with Scripture and examining verses and word pictures within the context of the chapter, the book, and the entire Bible. As Second Peter 1:20 (KJV) states: “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.”
