Failure to ask this primary question and to investigate the historical setting of Scripture have prevented many Christians from coming to a correct understanding of some parts of the Bible. Nowhere is this more true than in respect to the last book in the Bible. Here, there has been a singular lack of appreciation for the historical background of the book; the book has been interpreted as if it were primarily written for the day in which the expositor lives (which is usually thought to be the end time), rather than in terms of what it meant to the first-century Christians of the Roman province of Asia for whom it was originally written. This has resulted in all sorts of grotesque and fantastic conclusions of which the author of the Revelation and its early recipients never would have dreamed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Without goals, and plans to reach them, you are like a ship that has set sail with no destination. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17617]]></link><description><![CDATA[Without goals, and plans to reach them, you are like a ship that has set sail with no destination.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17617</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Though last, not least in love, yours, good Trebonius. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51288]]></link><description><![CDATA[Though last, not least in love, yours, good Trebonius.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51288</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can't take a well-tanned person seriously ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32012]]></link><description><![CDATA[I can't take a well-tanned person seriously]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Liberty is the only thing you can't have unless you give it to others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24720]]></link><description><![CDATA[Liberty is the only thing you can't have unless you give it to others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24720</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be a human being means to possess a feeling of inferiority which constantly presses towards its own conquest...The greater ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52425]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be a human being means to possess a feeling of inferiority which constantly presses towards its own conquest...The greater the feeling of inferiority that has been experienced, the more powerful is the urge for conquest and the more violent the emotional agitation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52425</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who will not economize will have to agonize. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13346]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who will not economize will have to agonize.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13346</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The redbreast oft, at evening hours, Shall kindly lend his little aid,  With hoary moss, and gathered flowers,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54338]]></link><description><![CDATA[The redbreast oft, at evening hours, Shall kindly lend his little aid,  With hoary moss, and gathered flowers,   To deck the ground where thou art laid.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Remembrance wakes with all her busy train, Swells at my breast, and turns the past to pain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26940]]></link><description><![CDATA[Remembrance wakes with all her busy train, Swells at my breast, and turns the past to pain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26940</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gardens are a form of autobiography. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17190]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gardens are a form of autobiography.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17190</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No legacy is so rich as honesty. -All 's Well that Ends Well.
