Who Rides the Beast?: Prophetic Rivalry and the Rhetoric of Crisis in the Churches of the Apocalypse
Duff, Paul B. (Associate Professor of Religion and Chair, Department of Religion, Associate Professor of Religion and Chair, Department of Religion, George Washington University)
This study offers a different viewpoint on the origin of the Book of Revelation as a rhetorically sophisticated response to an internal leadership crisis within the churches. The author marshals evidence from the social, economic and literary context of the time.
