Revelations is a book, not a chapter. You're going to have to do that on your own. Try this website http://www.bibleontheweb.com/Bible.asp

Revelations, the last book of the Bible, is too deep to condense into the format of a Yahoo answer. The first time I read it, it took about 2 hours with no interruptions of any kind. It is quite good and believeable, but heavy/intense. Set aside a clear block of time, unhook the phone, lock your door and don't let anything stop you. Good luck. By the way--it helps to know what the Bible's talking about before you read Revelations, so try the book of John, then let that lead you gradually towards the End. Enjoy.

To correct the person above, it is 144,000 people from the 12 tribes of Israel that will be sealed and preached about Jesus here on earth before the end of the world. There will be many in heaven. This is a very difficult book. I would suggest getting a book explaining revelations along with your Bible. Revelations talks about the end times, the anti-christ, the plagues that will be coming before it is all over.

It is John's vision of the end of the world - Judgement Day. It is when the final battle of Good and Evil is fought, when the dead rise from the graves and are judged just as the living, to see who will be admitted into Heaven. In the meantime, the Earth is being torn asunder by the minions of Hell, the sun is turning red with blood, and things just plain aren't going very well for those left behind.
I only read Revelations once....gave me nightmares for a couple weeks.

The book of Revelation is THE hardest book to understand in the Bible. I recommend that you study it carefully because some of the prophecies have already happened, and some of them are waiting to be fulfilled.

Go to the library and rent a Bible....Read Revelations....It's the last book of the Bible....Once you begin to read it you will understand...Anyway....If you read it and tell your friend that you don't understand it, he will help you and I am sure he will appreciate the fact that you did read it :) It's about the end times....
