Verbal precision of the Apocalypse.

"The more I read this wonderful book, the more I am convinced that the precision of the phraseology is little short of mathematical accuracy. The language seems highly adorned; but the ornaments are not redundancies; they are not of that sort that the proposition would remain the same, if the epithets were expunged. And in passages which may seem similar, there never was the smallest variation of style, but it points to something of diversity either in the subject or the predicate."—Horsley.
