No Customer Reviews
The apostle John assumed the pastoral work in Ephesus around the year 70 A.D. , including churches in the surrounding area, the "seven churches of Asia Minor" of Revelation 2-3. The Roman emperor Nero had persecuted the Christians in Rome, but the "litmus test" that Peter had promised (1 P 4.12ss) had not yet begun. More when Domitian ascended the throne (81-96 A.D. ), persecution intensified. Domitian was a murdered in cold blood as ever be found in the pages of history. Promoted the "worship of the emperor" and began their advertisements with: "Our Lord and God Domitian orders". Any person who spoke with the should call him: "Lord and God". Was rigorous in its treatment of both the Jews and to Christians, and under his decree John had to go into exile in the island of Patmos, a rocky island of fifteen kilometers long and ten meters wide, in the Aegean Sea. Rome had a prison camp where the prisoners worked in the mines. It was there in this desolate landscape that John received the visions that are Revelation. He wrote around the year 95 A.D.
