More than any other New Testament writing the Book of Revelation
demands commentary. Its often-bewildering text is easily open to
less than scholarly interpretation. Father Harrington brings his
scholarship to the Book of Revelation and conveys its Christian
message. He puts the work in its historical and social setting--a
first-century CE province of the Roman Empire--and explores its
social and religious background and its literary character. Through
Father Harrington we hear clearly the challenge of John, the
prophet, to the Churches of his time--and to ours--not to
compromise the Gospel message.
