John writes of traveling into the sky; but this perspective of \"sky-visions\" is completely neglected in the traditional commentaries and studies on \u003ci\u003eRevelation\u003c\/i\u003e. Malina and Pilch demonstrate the necessity of taking ancient sky-interpretation seriously for reading the book of \u003ci\u003eRevelation\u003c\/i\u003e in its first- century context.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilding on their earlier works on \u003ci\u003eRevelation\u003c\/i\u003e, and using this highly successful commentary model, Malina and Pilch have charted a new direction for \u003ci\u003eRevelation\u003c\/i\u003e studies.
