One example may be sufficient to illustrate the style of this work. On the first two verses of chapter 19 there are, in quick succession, comments on God’s dealings with all His creatures in truth and righteousness ‘whether in grace or judgement’; there is a comment on the text, comparing the KJV and RV translations and referring to the original text; a reference to the true church being hid in heaven until the harlot has been destroyed: then follows a remark on the four ‘Hallelujahs’ in verses 1-6, noting the absence of that word in the rest of the New Testament and its occurrences in the last five Psalms, and suggesting that ‘in their united character (these) express the millennial praise of Israel’. In the space of a few sentences, the reader has been alerted to matters doctrinal, devotional, textual, and dispensational.
Given the subject matter of this book, no one will agree with everything Scott writes, but no one who reads this book can fail to be enriched by it.
