Explanation Of The Apocalypse

Explanation of the Apocalypse

by The Venerable Bede

The Explanation of the Apocalypse by the Venerable Bede is an early Christian exegetical work that offers a detailed interpretation of the Book of Revelation. Written around 710-716 AD, Bede's commentary draws on the allegorical and typological methods of interpretation prevalent in his time. He interprets the visions in Revelation as symbolic representations of the Church's history and the end times. Bede's work is notable for its careful attention to the text and its use of corresponding passages from Scripture to elucidate the meaning of the symbolic language. It is considered an important contribution to the study of biblical apocalypticism and provides insights into the beliefs and practices of the early Christian Church.
