Apocalypse of John
The Apocalypse (Greek: αποκάλυψις "unveiling, revelation") or Revelation of John is the last book of the New Testament of the Bible. It comprises 22 chapters and gives a preview of the future development of humanity and the Earth and at the same time reveals the nature of the Christ and is thus, according to the opening words, the Apocalypsis of Jesus Christ (Greek: Ἀποκάλυψις Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ Apokalypsis Jesu Christou), the Revelation of Jesus Christ. Its author is considered to be the Evangelist John, who is also said to have written the Gospel of John and the Epistles of John. According to the traditional theological view, he is identical with the apostle John and with Jesus' favourite disciple, who is not mentioned by name in the Gospel of John and who, according to Rudolf Steiner, was none other than Lazarus, who was raised from the dead by the Christ and thus became the first person initiated by the Christ himself. The Revelation of John is the fruit of a comprehensive spiritual vision, which he says he received on the island of Patmos (Rev 1:9–20).
