The Revelation is a book of great depth; containing tot Sa•menta, quot verba; as many wonders 1as words, mysteries as sentences. There are other books of the Gospel; but Bullinger calls this Librum evangelicissimum, the most Gospel-like 2book, a book of most happy consolation: delivering those eventual comforts, which shall successively and successfully, accompany the Church unto the end of the world. It presents, as in a perspective glass, the lamb of God guarding, and regarding his Saints: & giving them triumphant victory over all his and their enemies. The writings of S. John, as I have read it observed, are of three sorts. He teacheth in his Gospel especially Faith; in his Epistles love; hope in his Revelation.
The Reuelation is a booke of great depth; containing tot Sa•menta, quot verba; as many wonders 1as words, mysteries as sentences.
