For many readers of the book of Revelation, the puzzling imagery and structure generates either an obsession with the book or else a wary avoidance altogether. Both responses are regrettable. This vision was entrusted to the Church through John to equip us for faithful witness to Jesus in challenging circumstances. This course seeks to recover the tremendous potential of Revelation for forming disciples of Christ by understanding it historically, theologically, and pastorally. We will analyse the structure, symbolism, and rhetoric of the book in the literary and socio-historical context of Second Temple Judaism, the Greco-Roman Empire, and early Christianity. Along the way, we will wrestle with hermeneutical issues raised by the book and with its implications for followers of Christ today.
