Since I left some of the scriptures off, I am reposting this in its entirety.
For whoever is interested, below is a rough list of information from the book of Revelation with some of the corresponding OT scriptures. For the most part, though I study the OT, an in depth understanding of the OT is not required in order to understand the book of Revelation. There are only a few specific subjects in Revelation where the OT is necessary such as the information regarding the Woman of Rev.12, the beast and the dismantling of all human government, etc., which can also be found in the book of Genesis and Daniel.
We have to remember that word Apokalupsis which is translate as Revelation, is defined as information which was partially or previously unknown and that is being revealed because it was previously covered, hidden. The lid's being taken off. Also, we must pay attention to the very first verse in Revelation which says, "The revelation from Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place.: Therefore, the book of Revelation is regarding future events from the time it was given to John and specifically has to do with that last generation where the seals, trumpets and bowl judgments take place, as well as all of the signs mentioned in Mt.24.
