That the Apocalypse of John is a “Revelation of Jesus Christ” (Rev 1:1) is a fact too often overlooked by interpreters of this last book of the Bible. As Msgr. A. Robert Nusca’s The Christ of the Apocalypse: Contemplating the Faces of Jesus in the Book of Revelation proposes, beyond predictions of earthquakes and falling stars, St. John articulates from start to finish a multifaceted and compelling portrait of Jesus Christ. Nusca offers an exegetical reading of selected verses of the Book of Revelation, incorporating rich spiritual and pastoral reflections. The Christ of the Apocalypse above all affirms that St. John’s God- and Christ-centered, symbolic universe offers our contemporary world a spiritual place to stand amid the shifting sands of postmodernity. As Cardinal Thomas Collins, Archbishop of Toronto, writes in his Foreword, “Now, as in the first century, Christians face martyrdom, and those who are not called to die for Christ are called to live for Christ in a world which in many ways rejects the Gospel. More than ever, we need the apocalyptic vision, to have our own vision of reality clarified, and to be strengthened in our evangelical witness.”

"Like most people who are lovers of God's word, for a long time, I was very uncomfortable with the Book of Revelation…. But I found that there was a way out of the confusion, a way to hear what God was saying, a means of interpreting the book in the way that God intended…" —from the Introduction In this engaging and responsible volume, Scripture scholar Stephen Doyle uses a three-pronged approach to deciphering the complicated and often-misunderstood Book of Revelation—one that is accessible to a new Bible reader, yet useful to the serious student. Following the directives of the Second Vatican Council's Constitution on Divine Revelation, he helps the reader to: examine the text in light of its original language, understand what the human author meant to communicate, and determine the literary form used and its influence on the meaning of the text. Each chapter begins with a passage of the Book of Revelation, followed by an explanation that searches for the main theme in that passage, and concludes with a reflection that casts light on the meaning of the text for today. A thorough bibliography provides resources for further study.

Excerpt from The Doctrine of the Apocalypse, and Its Relation to the Doctrine of the Gospel and Epistles of John I Am aware that the title of the following volume leaves the reader to some extent in doubt whether he has to do with a treatise on biblical theology or on biblical criticism, or with a work of a mixed character. But instead of prefixing a tedious title, which would still need explaining, I have expressed myself briefly, and feel under obligation to define my meaning in a preface. According to Keim's preface to the third volume of his History of Jesus of Nazareth, John is " historically vanquished." Such great words, often easily uttered, frequently fail to justify themselves. For me there exists no historico-philosophical necessity to reject beforehand the portrait of Christ as sketched by John; and the generally learned and acute attacks on its authenticity, - far inore than all modern defences, whether with or without limitations, more even than the thorough and ingenious researches of Weizsacker, - and, though it may seem strange, above all, the attempt of Keim, surprising in many respects, to construct the life of Jesus exclusively from the synoptical Gospels, have made it to me increasingly improbable that the ecclesiastical tradition respecting the origin of John's Gospel is untrue. But should this avowal be understood to mean that, according to my own statement, the difficulties of the question were gradually overcome in this way, I must strongly protest against such an interpretation; for, on the contrary, the more unacceptable the negative solution became to me, the less did the various attempts at a positive solution - Wcizsacker's not excepted - succeed in satisfying me.

Excerpt from The Apocalypse of St. John: The Greek Text, With Introduction, Notes and Indices The publication in the present year of Dr Hort's lecture-notes upon the Apocalypse has rendered necessary a few additions both to the introduction and to the notes Of this volume. Until my first edition had been published I was not aware that Dr Hort had lectured upon the subject, and the announcement that his notes were being prepared for the press came as a further and welcome surprise. Their value has been justly estimated by Dr Sanday in his preface to the work, and I need only add the hope that all readers of the present book may be able to consult Dr Hort's fresh and suggestive pages. In regard to the unity Of the Apocalypse I am rejoiced to find that I have the support of his great authority. On the other hand he inclines decidedly to the earlier date, and upon some important points Of exegesis his conclusions differ from those to which I had come. To the latter it has been impossible to do more than refer; upon the date of the book I have added a postscript to the chapter of my intro duction which deals with that question, briefly stating the grounds upon which I am unable to abandon the traditional view. Besides these additions a few corrections, supplied by reviews or received from private friends, have been made in this edition, and the pagination has undergone some necessary changes.

Apocalypticism arose in ancient Judaism in the last centuries BCE and played a crucial role in the rise of Christianity. It is not only of historical interest: there has been a growing awareness, especially since the 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, of the prevalence of apocalyptic beliefs in the contemporary world. To understand these beliefs, it is necessary to appreciate their complex roots in the ancient world, and the multi-faceted character of the phenomenon of apocalypticism. The Oxford Handbook of Apocalyptic Literature is a thematic and phenomenological exploration of apocalypticism in the Judaic and Christian traditions. Most of the volume is devoted to the apocalyptic literature of antiquity. Essays explore the relationship between apocalypticism and prophecy, wisdom and mysticism; the social function of apocalypticism and its role as resistance literature; apocalyptic rhetoric from both historical and postmodern perspectives; and apocalyptic theology, focusing on phenomena of determinism and dualism and exploring apocalyptic theology's role in ancient Judaism, early Christianity, and Gnosticism. The final chapters of the volume are devoted to the appropriation of apocalypticism in the modern world, reviewing the role of apocalypticism in contemporary Judaism and Christianity, and more broadly in popular culture, addressing the increasingly studied relation between apocalypticism and violence, and discussing the relationship between apocalypticism and trauma, which speaks to the underlying causes of the popularity of apocalyptic beliefs. This volume will further the understanding of a vital religious phenomenon too often dismissed as alien and irrational by secular western society.
