Christian Revelations & Apocalypses

Note: If an item is greyed it means that I have not yet found an on-line version, but I am still looking. If you know of one, or are willing to produce one, please contatct me.

Note that the terms "apocalypse" and "revelation" are both translations of the same Greek term. Technically, "revelation" is a translation and "apocalypse" is a transliteration. The upshot is that the same works are often referred to by different modern writers as the "Apocalypse of x" or the "Revelation of x", creating no shortage of confusion. I would have preferred to standardize on "revelation," at least partly because "apocalypse" in modern usage carries with it the connotation of eschatological vision. While this is certainly a feature of some of the works which go by the name, it is not so of all. Never-the-less, in scholarly circles, 'apocalypse' is the standard label for some of these works, 'revelation' for others. I have used the list of abbreviations for use in Textual Criticism as an anchoring reference to scholarly standards.
