Description and Table of Contents

Description

Margaret Barker shows that Revelation represents some of the oldest material in the New Testament, some of it from Jesus himself. Her work illuminates the formative years of christianity in the social, religious, and political situation of mid-first-century Palestine in quite a remarkable way. This book will have profound implications for the understanding of Christian origins and the development of Christian liturgy.
