The chief tenets of Satan’s cult of the blind!

The Revelation was written at least 22 years after the destruction of Jerusalem. And Yochanan was not a history teacher, he was a major prophet.

(He says as he hurls insults.) Missed irony 101, perhaps?

“The Revelation was written at least 22 years after the destruction of Jerusalem.”

Nope. It was written no later than 68 AD.

“And Yochanan was not a history teacher, he was a major prophet.”

He wrote of what was (history), what is (current events), and what will be (prophecy) to seven churches in Asia Minor (Turkey.) And he did so because those things that “would be” were about to happen, expressed through the use of words like “soon” and “near.”

Revelation was a letter of warning and encouragement to people living as its events unfolded right before their eyes almost 2,000 years ago. It has nothing to do with us!
