THE MEANING AND MESSAGE
OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION
by Edward A. Mcdowell. Broad
man Press, Nashville. $2.75. This
author takes into account the his
tOTic setting of Revelation, and it's
relevance to our own time. He
avoids mechanical Interpretation.
The sovereignty of God over all
the universe is set forth, Christ
is exalted, and redeeming love is
a powerful theme. I'VE have lost
in much of our preaching and in
depreciation of the gospel the
sense of Gods hand in history. of
His direction of history towards a
goal and cOnsummation. We need
the valuation of our doctrine in a
tTobust certainty that there is
cOnsummation that God is bring
ing to pass. What are love and
justice and peace and morality
apart from the conviction that
these are supported by the eternal
purposes of God in history? And
how shall we decry sin and fight
against evil unless we know that
God will completely vindicate His
holiness in a final judgment? And
how shall we comfort our broken
hearts and help heal the wounds of
humanity unless there is a new
heaven and a new earth and new
Jerusalem wherein there is a 'riv-
er of water of life?"
WORTHY is THE LAMB by Ray
Summers. BrOadman Press, Nash
vile. $2.75. Still another able
treatment Of the book of Revela-
tion. The author is head of the
Department of New Testament In
depreciation in a southern semi
nary. He announces his twO-fOld
purpose in writing: the meaning
OF the message to the people of
Asia Minor in the last decade of
the first century, and in knowledge
of that background the meaning of
the message for today. The author
is not an extremist, and he will
not please date fixers and head
line hunters. He sees the message
of Revelation as a call ito choose
the eternal rather than the tenn
pOral; to resist temptation, to re-
fuse to compromise with pagan Sc
cularism, to place the claim of
conscience above all demands
against it; to cherish the conf
dence of ultimate victory for the
kingdom of God, not only in the
reign of DOmitian but also in every
other chaotic period of world his

pie on Main Street could not believe would ever happen.
The action has produced a shock that may have serious conse'
quences. In the next few weeks congress may possibly be involved In
bitter debate as the generals cause is championed by the Republican
party.
But above all, it has caused confusion and uneashness In the mind of
the average Main Street citizen whose common sense tells him there is
no end in sight for the Korean conflict. 1t does not answer the question
in the minds of millions of people in the home towns: How are We going
to get III sons and brothers and husbands free of the blood and filth
of Korea?
GRAPES OF WRATH The people in the big cities OF the nation
know little about the "Okies" so wildly described in John Steinbecks
novel of the depression, 1.-THE Grapes of Wrath" But to the people in the
small towns and rural sections of the nation. they have long been a
problem-and a necessity.
There are millions of them in the United States, working from the
south toward the north as the crops rpen for harvest And a the harvest
nears they are welcomed and just as anxousy the community awaits
their leaving. They are poor, often underfed and inadequatey housed.
They present a problem on the home town level that the individual COM
munty is unable to solve.
At last much to the relief of millions of home towners, the federal
government has stepped in and made a survey of their problems. The
committee that made the survey has recommended legislation on migra-
tory farm labor that may solve wage problems, establish labor camps,
extend social security, public health and education programs with the
aid of states and local communities.
OF all the problems that faced the home towns of the nation. that
of the migratory worker was one of the most serious. Its solution will
be welcomed.
