The biblical Book of Revelation is not a cryptic history or prophecy, as is generally believed, but is, in fact, a manual of spiritual development. So explains theosophist James M. Pryse in this 1919 work, which seeks to uncover the hidden significance of the most misunderstood section of the Bible and reinterpret it from a modern theosophical perspective, uncovering its esoteric relationship to other ancient texts, including the Upanishads. Pryse offers a new translation of the Apocalypse based upon undisputed meanings of the original Greek text and comments on it on a verse-by-verse basis to bring to light startling new meaning in a work that many readers will have believed fully explored. Students of comparative mythology, ancient religion, and the Bible will find this an intriguing read. American journalist JAMES MORGAN PRYSE JR. (1859-1942) helped found the Gnostic Society in Los Angeles in 1925. He is also the author of Sermon on the Mount and Other Extracts from the New Testament (1899) and Reincarnation in the New Testament (1900), among other works.

James M. Pryse investigates early Christianity, explaining and demystifying the Apocalypse - also called the Book of Revelation. His examination reveals what is foreseen in the ancient Biblical text. The events of the Book of Revelation are considered by Biblical scholars and believers to hold great significance, both in the historic sense and as prophecy of the church and its future. In Pryse's interpretation, the Revelation is not an unsolvable enigma, or a mystery shrouded in secrets, but a living and cogent set of predictions. The original Greek of the book, which Pryse translated to aid his investigation, is proposed to be the key to understanding its meanings. In making his case for the Apocalypse being a reflection of Greek wisdom, Pryse draws upon the philosophy of Plato and the terms of ancient Greek that describe parts of the body. Though learning these principles, an understanding of what the Apocalypse means is possible. In addition we receive instruction on Greek number theory, which Pryse uses to further unravel the New Testament text. Several charts and illustrations accompany his explanations, that the reader may arrive at the fullest understanding. A novel and original approach to one of the Bible's most famous texts, The Apocalypse Unsealed is a valuable piece of occult lore.

After an introduction to narrative criticism, the volume focuses on point of view, setting, rhetoric, character, and plot in the Book of Revelation. The rhetorical and symbolic significance of numerals are discussed at length as are the multifaceted characters in the book such as demonic animals (locust, beasts, dragon, birds) and apocalyptic animals (lamb, four living creatures). The symbolic significance of topographical, architectural, agricultural, and other settings is emphasized. The final chapter of the book is a summary of some of the major theological themes of Revelation. The volume provides a useful methodology for the study of a much disputed book of the Bible.
