The language, metaphors and storyline of the Book of Revelation
evoke a cosmic law court setting. Juridical metaphors of a legal
contest between the faithful witnesses and the 'accuser of the
brethren' are intertwined throughout with images of holy war.
Although such features have often been noted, this is the first
full-length study drawing together the diverse evidence and reading
the book through the lens of the controlling metaphor of the
lawsuit.
