There is significant importance in understanding when the books of the Bible were written; this is especially true for Revelation. Since the world is no longer privileged to possess the dated, autographed version of Revelation as penned by John, we are left to evaluate the evidence, both external and internal, to assign the most probable date of writing. Most scholars date Revelation in 95/96 AD and thus state its contextual meaning is undoubtedly about the end of the world. But what if the evidence proves it was written before 70 AD? If so, we have a doorway of possibility that John could have been prophesying about another significant event much closer in time to his writing - such as the end of Judaism following the destruction of Jerusalem, in 70 AD.
