Sažetak
In this article, we present practical guidelines for a successful approach to biblical apocalyptic literature, especially the Book of the Prophet Daniel and John's Revelation. We briefly consider approaches to the interpretation of biblical apocalyptic literature. Next, we describe the basic features of the apocalyptic text. This is followed by a consideration of the methods and general principles of text interpretation with special reference to symbolism. We apply these hermeneutic principles to several sample texts from the Book of the Prophet Daniel and the Revelation of John. Recovering the meaning these apocalyptic texts had for their original readers can provide a clearer picture of the truths God wants us to understand today.
