Hearing at the
Boundaries of Vision
Education Informing cosmology in
revelation 9
Sean Michael
Ryan
• Nuanced
approach to
cosmology in
revelation
• Explains the
interplay
between
education,
cosmology and reception
• Enables the reader to appreciate
reception-history of revelation
This volume focuses on how two
very different hypothetical ancient
hearer-constructs, may interpret the
cosmological imagery of revelation 9.
The first, the recipient of a minimal
literary education, retains a Homeric
cosmological model. The second,
by contrast, utilises a tertiary-level
knowledge of Aratus and Plato to
allegorically reinterpret this imagery.

Here Comes the Judge
violent Pacifism in the Book of
revelation
Matthew Streett
• comprehensive
treatment of
violence in
revelation
• Enables readers
to understand
the paradox of
violence and
nonviolence in
revelation
• challenges traditional interpretation
The author of revelation sees violence
as perfectly legitimate as long as it is
initiated by the appropriate authority
(god). In this book Matthew Streett
argues that ‘bridge figures’, such as Jesus
christ, have demonstrated their authority
by transitioning from the human realm
of the judged to the divine realm of the
judge and have earned the right to judge.
