Book length poem on Biblical themes including the apocalypse and the return of Christ. The poem describes the history of humankind from a Biblical perspective from the Creation through the final division between saved and damned. About mid-way (end of Book V) is a description of the millennium. Church and state are separated, and the state has righteous leaders. The Jews have returned to a restored Jerusalem. No disease. No war. Abundance. No crime. Animals no longer in conflict with each other or humans.
