Imperial Cults and the Apocalypse of John: Reading Revelation in the Ruins
Steven J. Friesen (Associate Professor and Director of Graduate Studies, Department of Religious Studies, University of Missouri)

Friesen’s study of imperial cults and Revelation is the first to examine in depth both the archaelogical evidence and the Biblical text.
