Status Updates From The Moral Vision of the New...

“In order to break Satan‘s power of illusion, Revelation must reimagine the world; and so it does. The book’s imaginative power annihilates the plausibility structure on which the status quo rests and replaces it with the vision of a new world. The authority of the Roman Empire is thereby delegitimated, and the way is prepared for the community to receive the truth about God‘s coming order.” p. 183
