One of the more controversial and talked about books in the Bible is Revelation. It’s a book that seems to have its foot in both past, present, and future, and gives us a vivid image of heavenly worship and the judgment of this world. The Apostle John is credited as being the author, though His role might be better understood as a recorder, writing down what he was seeing and hearing. This could offer an explanation as to why scholars find John’s Greek to be unrefined in comparison with his gospel. Trying to describe the supernatural events John was observing would be difficult to put in words, for words are inadequate to describe what our minds are inadequate to comprehend. Still, John was able to provide for us an awe-inspiring witness that is meant to encourage the church as the church endures persecution.
