Publisher's Synopsis
The book of Revelation is the most well-known and possibly most misunderstood work of apocalyptic literature. Revelation and the AntiChrist backtracks the web of confusion, misinformation, and "educated" guesses that have made a work whose very name means to reveal - almost impossible to understand. See why the traditional interpretations never quite work. If you have ever thought there must be something missing, you were right!
Some scholars have long recognized that there must be a Hebrew source buried behind the Greek text. Some have even suggested that the underlying source was not Christian. This well-researched and meticulously documented interpretation goes one further. When viewed as a whole, the Greek text, the early Church fathers, the contemporary historians, and the Dead Sea Scrolls reveal an original author who was an apocalyptic Jew.
Using his training and experience as a trial lawyer, Mr. Massey cuts through the fog of stories and misinformation about the "antichrist", the "rapture", and the number of the beast. He presents a compelling case that almost everyone has gotten it wrong.
