Milligan, a Scottish professor of biblical criticism who devoted much of his career to the Apocalypse, works through John’s visions in order: the letters to the seven churches, the seals, trumpets and bowls, the woman and the dragon, Babylon and the New Jerusalem. He reads them not as a timetable of future events but as a picture of the church’s struggle and victory in every age.
