There is a pattern throughout the whole of the Scriptures: Irish Scripture Scholar Frances Hogan helps us understand this pattern so that we can interpret the Book of Revelation as St. John intended. All of God’s decisions are eternal; He knows everything is going to happen and He gives the same response every time. 

God is even-handed with everyone; He is the Alpha and the Omega. If we look at the events of Exodus, these were end-times for Egypt and for the people of Israel, a beginning. He used Moses to bring judgment on Egypt and He used Nebuchadnezzar and Assyria to bring judgment on Israel centuries later. St. John begins to show us the end times for the church; this will also be a beginning for the new heavens and the new earth.

Scripture Scholar Frances Hogan takes you to the world of the Apocalypse of John shown to us in the Book of Revelation written from the Greek island of Patmos. Through this podcast, we will try to understand the Book of Revelation through St. John’s warnings, the punishment that awaits, and the consolation the Lord offers to the faithful.
