In this episode of Luke 21, Steve Wood continues the Beginner’s Survey of the Book of Revelation, unlocking one of the greatest keys to understanding its prophetic vision: the Old Testament book of Ezekiel.
Did you know Revelation references the Old Testament more than any other New Testament book? Today, you’ll discover how St. John doesn’t just quote the prophets—he internalizes them. Like Ezekiel, John is given a scroll to eat (Rev 10), symbolizing his deep assimilation of God’s Word. What emerges is a powerful New Covenant prophecy, uniquely Christian and yet deeply rooted in the ancient prophetic tradition.
Steve explores how Revelation 4–22 mirrors the structure and themes of Ezekiel, revealing that the Book of Revelation is, in many ways, a Spirit-led rewriting of Ezekiel’s vision—now applied to the Church. If you’ve ever found Revelation confusing or overwhelming, this fresh and faithful perspective will transform how you read it.
