Revelation, Episode 4: The Roman World of John
Well, I hope you like history podcasts, because this episode is a deep dive into the history of ancient Rome, from its legendary beginnings to the reigns of the first 11 emperors who reigned during the events of the New Testament. Because we cover over a thousand years of history, this lecture skips over much. This is only the highlights of Roman history as we try to firmly establish the setting, the culture, and the civilization of the Roman world in which John wrote the Book of Revelation.
