The first question is: Should Revelation be studied at all? Is it
monopolised by fundamentalists, or of such a minority interest that
it doesn't belong in the New Testament? This study guide introduces
the text anew by a series of thematic readings. The text is seen to
deal with essential themes-God and Christ, the Church in the World,
Creation and the end of the Universe, Politics and Rival Powers,
and the Future Hope. Special attention is paid to the living
traditions within which Revelation is interpreted, including art,
literature and music. Not only does this guide seek to orientate
the reader within the whole range of the text and its traditions;
it also focusses discussion in three substantial chapters dealing
in turn with the key literary, historical, and theological issues
raised. How can one describe Revelation's literary character? From
what historical and social context did it come? What are its
abiding theological values and doctrines? This study is set in the
context of modern approaches to the biblical text and is supported
by selected bibliographies and recommendations for further
reading.>
