Publisher description
Apocalypse is a Greek word meaning "revelation", "an unveiling or unfolding of things not previously known and which could not be known apart from the unveiling." As a genre, apocalyptic literature details the authors' visions of the end times as revealed by a heavenly messenger or Angel. This first volume in the new series Apocalyptic Literature focuses on early 'apocryphons' composed in the aftermath of a cataclysmic event in the ancient world - the Roman destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in AD 70. Volume 1 contains the essential Judeo-Christian works from this period: The Apocalypse of Abraham The Sheep and the Goats The Book of Daniel (Two Versions) The Olivet Discourse Revelation (Four Versions)
