About This Commentary

John's Revelation

This is a verse-by-verse commentary on the Book of Revelation, written by Saul Hernandez. The central thesis is that John's Revelation is a story about conversions — massive numbers of them — and that the so-called deaths, rivers flowing with blood, and apocalyptic imagery are symbolic of people dying to themselves and being reborn in Christ.

Scripture quotations and footnotes are taken from the New American Bible (NAB) as deposited on the Vatican website. Credit: United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.
