Revelation 19: 11-21 is a passage rich in symbol and allusion, much
of which proves elusive for interpreters restricting themselves to
Old Testament references. However, when Greco-Roman history and
mythology are examined, new possibilities are discovered.
Revelation 19 in Historical and Mythological Context analyzes the
Roman triumph and the Parthian threat as sources for the colorful
imagery in Revelation 19, ultimately exploring the Nero redivivus
myth as the nexus between the two and a key for unlocking the
passage. Paradox and parody are important themes in this technical
though theological study of the climax to the drama that is the
Apocalypse.
