This work investigates the physical and textual history of the Book of Revelation through an analysis of its surviving Greek manuscripts. Garrick V. Allen, a scholar of New Testament studies, utilizes codicological and paleographic data to argue that the material form of these manuscripts significantly influences how the text was read and interpreted by early Christian communities. By examining the paratexts and physical arrangement of the scrolls and codices, the author provides a framework for understanding the reception history of the Apocalypse.
