Wisdom for Everyday Life
From the Book of Revelation
by Fr. Richard Veras
130 pages ppbk
A beast with seven heads, locusts with human faces, Death on a pale horse-what could any of this possibly have to do with whether or not you gossip about your colleagues or cheat on your taxes?
Everything, according to Fr. Richard Veras. The symbolic language of Revelation underscores such foundational truths as God's inescapable presence-"there is no time, place or situation in which he is not"-to the fact that "the army of the beast is not made up of aliens; it is made up of hardened human hearts."
"This amazing book lifts the veil from one of the Bible's most mysterious books. With powerful insights and an extremely engaging style, Fr. Veras leads us through the images and symbols of the Book of Revelation making their meaning clear. He teaches us not only how to read Revelation, but also how to look at life so that we can decipher all the ingenious ways that the Mystery of God is at work in the world." Fr. Peter John Cameron, O.P.
