The common answer is the Apostle John. I tend to think this is true, but there are a couple things that differentiate this from his other writings. In his other writings he never refers to himself as John. He also makes use of compound words which he doesn't otherwise. Since there is question as to the date of the writing of Revelation there must also be some question about it's author. Eusebius ( the first church historian) also did not believe that it was the Apostle John. I believe that it was because I believe that Jesus foretold in John 21:22 that John would remain until He came. Tradition tells that they couldn't kill John and Jesus of course was revealed to John, the last remaining Apostle. |
