Excerpt from Discussions on the Apocalypse Dices retained have been revised in the light of later investigation, both on the Continent and in England while the Appendix on The Unity of the Apocalypse has been greatly enlarged. This last point had been treated very briefly in 1886, because at that date the unity of the book may be said to have been generally acknowledged, and attacks upon it, after having been suspended for a time, were then only beginning to be resumed. Two Discussions, one on The relation of the Apocalypse to the general Apocalyptic Literature of the first century, and one on The relation to one another of the seven Epistles to the Churches, in Chap. Ii. Iii. Have been added. The first of these is an effort to meet the difficulty felt by many, that the author of the Apocalypse cannot be St. John, if St. John be also the author of the fourth Gospel, because it would have been impossible, more particularly when the late date of the Apocalypse is accepted, for the same person to write, within the short period then allowed, two books differing so much both in form and expression. The second of these Discussions, the last in this volume, may, it is hoped, throw some light on the conception and structure of the Apocalypse as a whole, and thus help to prepare the reader for objections of various kinds, taken to a book in every respect so remarkable and unique.
