Description:

Tyconius: Exposition of the ApocalypseMy English translation of Tyconius’s Exposition of the Apocalypse has been published.  It is in Volume 134 of the Fathers of the Church series.  I hope you get a copy and enjoy reading his explanations of the Book of Revelation.Tyconius wrote this Exposition about 380 AD.  It is useful in many ways. He interpreted John’s visions to make them relevant for the church of all times, similar to modern “idealist” interpretations.  He also believed that some passages in Revelation were symbolic of the future persecution of Antichrist, the Second Coming, and the Last Judgment.He believed that the Book of Revelation is recapitulatory, rather than visions of events that reflect chronological order.  On some familiar passages and themes, Tyconius saw the 144,000 as a symbol of the whole church. Likewise, the two witnesses are symbolic of the church prophesying in both testaments. Those sitting on thrones and reigning for a thousand years represent the present reign of the saints; and the first resurrection “is in this life through forgiveness of sins.”The introduction and notes to the translation of Tyconius were written by David Charles Robinson of Toronto.For a review of our book in Augustinian Studies 50:2 (2019), click here.To order Tyconius of Carthage, Exposition of the Apocalypse from Amazon, click here.I leave you with an encouragement from a Syriac commentator: “Let us spiritually refresh ourselves in the Apocalypse of the Son of God which is very dear and wonderful.”View BookCarolingian Commentaries on the Apocalypse by Theodulf and SmaragdusCarolingian Commentaries on the Apocalypse by Theodulf and Smaragdus by Francis X.
