Summary:

"Readers of Revelation have long been baffled by the cryptic text. How do we read the book of Revelation in a way that make sense not just of the text for its original audience, but for us today? Shane Wood argues in Thinning the Veil that Revelation ultimately reveals something to us about who Jesus is, and in that encounter, we become the kinds of people that God uses to advance his kingdom"-- Provided by publisher.
