Commentary on the Apocalypse of St. John

Francisco Ribera (1537-1591), a Spanish Jesuit priest of the sixteenth century, authored one of the most influential early commentaries on the book of Revelation. His futurist interpretation is historically significant for its role in shaping modern Dispensationalism. This edition presents the first complete English translation of Ribera's In Sacrum Beati Ioannis Apostoli, & Evangelistae Apocalypsin Commentarii, translated from the original Latin. The text is published as a historical and theological primary source, allowing readers to examine Ribera's exposition and conclusions firsthand. This publication is intended for students and researchers of biblical interpretation, church history, and eschatology, and is offered for critical study rather than doctrinal endorsement. Read more
