About this listen

The provided text, identified as "The Revelation of Jesus Christ" or the Book of Revelation, details a prophetic vision given by God to John on the island of Patmos. It begins with messages to seven churches in Asia, each receiving commendation, rebuke, and exhortation based on their deeds. The text then transitions into apocalyptic visions, describing heavenly worship, the opening of seven seals leading to various judgments, and the sounding of seven trumpets unleashing further tribulations upon the earth. A central theme involves the struggle between divine forces and evil entities, symbolized by a dragon and two beasts, culminating in the ultimate victory of God and the Lamb. The narrative concludes with a final judgment, the destruction of Babylon, and the establishment of a new heaven and new earth, featuring the holy city of New Jerusalem, where God dwells eternally with humanity, bringing an end to sorrow and pain.
