Excerpt from The Book of Revelation: An Exposition; Based on the Principles of Prof. Stuart's Commentary and Designed to Familiarize Those Principles to the Minds of Non-Professional Readers
In the preparation Of this little book, the main portions Of which first appeared in the columns of the Christian Mirror, the Object of the writer has been to aid ordinary readers in attaining those more rational, and, as is believed, more truthful views of this part of the Sacred Word. Many who saw them in those columns have expressed a desire to have them in a more permanent form, and at the risk of censure for presuming to under stand this so-called mysterious book, I venture to issue them anew.

Excerpt from The Book of Revelation: An Exposition; Based on the Principles of Prof. Stuart's Commentary and Designed to Familiarize Those Principles to the Minds of Non-Professional Readers
The publication of Professor Moses Stuart's Commentary on the Apocalypse in 1845 marked a new era in biblical exposition in this country, especially in the department of prophecy. Instead of the conjectural and mystical methods of deducing the meaning of the sacred books, which had long been in vogue, there was substituted what may not invidiously be styled the method of common sense. It was assumed that these books were given for a practical purpose, some important end of instruction, of admonition, or comfort, to those to whom they were addressed; that they were therefore designed to be understood by them, and in fact were understood in their essential import; and still further, that by the application of the well-known canons of interpretation which are our guide to the meaning of all language in every field of literature, we may understand them also.
Studied in the light of these principles, the Book of Revelation took on an almost totally new aspect. To many minds it was nearly equivalent to adding a new book to the Bible. That which had seemed fanciful, grotesque, and utterly inexplicable, lost its strange aspect and became an intelligible and rational book, for the practical use of the church.
