[Suzerain of Sheol]

Revelation is a strange outlier in the Bible, to me. Like... when Ireneaus and the other early church fathers were deciding what was scripture and what was heresy, what made them include it? I mean, granted, it fits the overarching theological structure a bit better than, say, the Hypostasis of the Archons, but it reads like it was written by a lunatic who'd been exiled to a remote island for a couple decades where he found some rather interesting mushrooms. Oh, wait...

In all seriousness, I think Revelation, in all its surreal glory, is a coded message about resistance against the Roman Empire. That doesn't stop it from provoking the imagination, though. :p
