Nothing Has Been Wasted
The final Book does not invent an unrelated vocabulary; it recapitulates sacred history in intensified form. Dragon recalls serpent and rebellion; Beast the False King and autonomous system; False Prophet corrupted intellect and prophecy; Babylon false civilization; the Woman Sophia, Israel, Mary, Church, and soul; Lamb Christ; Judgment discernment; Resurrection awakening; Bride reconciled creation; New Jerusalem restored Kingdom; Tree of Life primordial Life returned. Every earlier symbol returns transformed. Revelation is the Bible—and the Royal Art—bringing all previous Books onto the stage at once.
