Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Essays on the Apocalypse These Essays are an extension of a book written by me in the year 1905, and published in January, 1906, entitled, The Apocalypse, The Antichrist, and The End. They are meant to show the great importance of the date of the book in every department of its exegesis. Every scrap of evidence we possess is in favour of dating the book in the year 67 A.D. If we accept that date, the book unfolds its message in an intelligible way. If we do not, it remains, more or less, a mystery. It has been generally assumed by Catholic writers that the Apocalypse was written in the year 96, because St Irenæus, who lived in the second century, is supposed to have handed it down as the tradition of the early Church. But St Irenæus did not say that the Apocalypse was written, or that the visions were seen, at the close of Domitian´s reign; but that "The Apocalypse" was seen then. The Apocalypse, meaning "The Revelation," was the title of the book which St John wrote. What St Irenæus said, therefore, was that the book was seen at the close of Domitian´s reign. This does not necessarily mean that the book was written then. A detailed explanation of this matter is given in the second Essay. As all these Essays deal, practically, with the same subject, there is some repetition, which is regrettable, but unavoidable.
