Description
In a compelling new study based on ancient sources, Malina offers a new reading of Revelation. Malina contends that John the Seer s milieu was one of intense interest in and fascination with the sky; he asserts that John has his own interpretation of the sky that follows the Jewish and Christian story of God s salvation in Messiah. This vibrant reading of Revelation is buttressed by ancient literary and archaeological sources, maps, illustrations, and diagrams.
