Since the beginning, humankind has been fascinated with the night sky. The first century A.D. was no exception. In this compelling study, Malina interprets the Book of Revelation as being a result of John's intense interest in the sky. His assertions proven by ancient sources, he portrays John as an 'astral prophet' whose visions and dreams describe God's salvation in the Messiah. You'll be riveted by this perspective on what is arguably the most enigmatic and misunderstood book of the Bible. 350 pages, hardcover from Hendrickson.
