The hypothesis is that John incorporated themes from the Hebrew Bible and Jewish tradition, especially apocalypticism and Greco-Roman themes, to present his vision of God and Christ. In the process, John has transformed the traditions to present a unique and exalted vision of both God and Christ. %K Traditionsgeschichtliche Forschung, Revelation 4-5, Criticism, Theology, Tradition, Johannes-Apokalypse 4-5, History %G English
