Fenton John Anthony Hort (1828 1892) was a scholar of the Bible,
Patristics and theology who served as Hulsean and Lady Margaret's
Professor of Divinity at Cambridge. Among his scholarly
contributions are the foundational critical edition of the Greek
New Testament as well as portions of the magisterial The
Ante-Nicene Fathers. This short book is a posthumous edition of
Hort's lectures discussing the authorship, dating and introductory
chapters of the Book of Revelation. While the 1908 publication
represents, as the preface notes, 'scholarship in undress', it does
so with skill. Positing an earlier date of authorship than
traditionally held and asserting authorial unity with the rest of
the Johannine corpus, this compact work is an important example of
focused historical criticism. The commentary on the first three
chapters of the Apocalypse further underscores the contribution of
this notable scholar at the height of his prowess.
