The writer of the book of Revelations in the New Testament is John (inspired by Jesus Christ) meaning that it came from God and he just wrote it. It was written while John was on a island that he was excelled to because of his beliefs he stayed there till he died.
St. John the evangelist I got the same exact question from my teacher for summer homework - eMaAn
while some people think it may have been John the Baptist it's a little hard to believe given that he died before most of the events in Jesus life ever happened. Most people believe it was the Disciple, John, who also wrote 1, 2, and 3 John, and Revelation
John McCrae wrote the poem after his friend and formal student Alexander Helmer died at age 22.
A:We know nothing about the author of Revelation, except that his name was John. At one stage, it was thought that he was the apostle John, but that is no longer the view of scholars. According to the Jewish historian, Josephus, it appears that John the Baptist died in 35 or very early in 36 CE, far too early to have written the Book of Revelation, which appears to have been written no earlier than the end of the century.Answer:Professor J.M. Ford, who wrote the entry on REVELATION for the "Anchor Bible Commentary," is among a minority of scholars who claim that John the Baptist wrote REVELATION, or at least REVELATION chapters 4 through 11. Although John the Baptist died before Jesus died, that is irrelevant, since John's writings could easily have been preserved for generations. The tell-tale markings, for Ford, are the Jewish end-of-world ideas that flourish in the book, and the hope for The One to Come, along with harsh words for the current generation. This matches the preaching of John the Baptist to a "T".
Answer John was the only Apostle to die a natural death. He was exiled on the Isle of Patmos while writing the Revelation, and was later released at which time he wrote his three epistles. Historical documents indicate that John lived well into his 90's - thus living through the death of all the apostles, including Paul. Cessationists believe that the death of John ended the continuing revelation of Christ to His church.FYI:The day commemorates the martyrdom by beheading of Saint John the Baptist on the orders of Herod Antipas through the vengeful request of his step-daughter Salome and her mother
He wrote Paradise Lost - while his wife was alive - then when she died, he wrote Paradise Found
John (the disciple whom Jesus loved) lived the longest of the disciplines. John's long life was alluded to in John 21:22 when Jesus spoke to Peter saying "If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you".
Although many fanciful traditions about the deaths of the apostles grew up over the centuries, we do not really know how any of them died, but tradition says that the apostle John died of natural causes as an old man. However, we do not really know how John died.
A:Although many fanciful traditions about the deaths of the apostles grew up over the centuries, we do not really know how any of them died. When it was decided late in the second century that he was the 'John' who wrote the Book of Revelation, it became necessary for John to live to an old age, so that he could actually write this book, on the island of Patmos. Scholars are now in substantial agreement that the apostle John did not write the Book of Revelation, but the tradition persists that he alone of the apostles died of old age, probably at Patmos. We can say that he would not have died on Patmos, but no more. A:Ephesus
