How Does the Orthodox Church Interpret the Book of Revelation?

Osogovo Monastery, Macedonia

Search the Scriptures
An interesting and accessible Orthodox Bible study by Dr. Jeannie Constantinou*
"How Does the Orthodox Church Interpret the Book of Revelation?"
Dr. Constantinou continues her exploration of the Book of Revelation. How does the Orthodox Church interpret it? The Apocalypse was accepted by the entire Church, then rejected in the East and ultimately accepted again. Why? Who was Andrew of Caesarea, and what impact did he have on the Orthodox acceptance and interpretation of the Apocalypse?

Recommended reading:

*Dr. Constantinou is unfortunately united to Ecumenist (heretical) World Orthodoxy.  Nevertheless, her work as a bible scholar is valuable, especially for western converts.
