Revelation 1:11

"What thou seest," evidently the visions which were about to be disclosed, "write in a book", this book we are now considering. "And send unto the seven churches," and here the specific seven churches of Asia Minor are given by name.

The book had some special application to the churches named, and to the conditions and circumstances in which they lived, and to those circumstances which they were soon to face. The book as a whole, not merely two Chapter s of it, was addressed to these seven churches.
