About: Apocalypse signifies revelation. It is however particularly applied to the Revelation which St. John had in the isle of Patmos, whither he had been banished. The testimonies in favor of the book of the Revelation being a genuine work of St. John the evangelist , are very full and satisfactory. Andrew, bishop of Caesarea, in Cappadocia, in the fifth century, assures us that Papias acknowledged the Revelation to be inspired. But the earliest author now extant, who mentions this book, is Justin Martyr, who lived about sixty years after it was written and he ascribes it to St. John. So does Iraeneus, whose evidence is alone sufficient upon this point; for he was the disciple of Polycarp, who was the disciple of John himself; and he expressly tells us, that he had the explanation of a certain passage in this book from those who had conversed with St. John the author. These two fathers are followed by Clement of Alexandria, Theophilus of Antioch, Tertullian, Origen, Cyprian, Lactantius, Jerome, Athanasius, and many other ecclesiastical writers, all of whom concur in considering the apostle John as the author of Revelation.
