- The title is the singular word "Revelation," but is often mistakenly pluralized as "Revelations" in popular culture, and not all works of Harry Turtledove are free of this error.
- The Book of Revelation is a written work within DEXTER. Created by author John the Revelator, the Book of Revelation tells of the End of Days (a concept for the End of the World, birthing the New World) brought on upon by Two Witnesses. Travis Marshall takes it to heart that he is one of these witnesses and that Professor James Gellar is the other. Travis's goal is to bring about the End of Days by enacting each of seven signs (referred to as Tableaus).
- The book of Revelation or The Apocalypse of John əˈpɑkəlɪps, from Greek ἀποκάλυψις ἀπο or apo- ["away from"] and κάλυψις or kaluptein ["cover"]—meaning literally "to pull the cover away from")[1] is the last canonical book of the New Testament in the Bible. It is the only biblical book that is wholly composed of apocalyptic literature. The book is frequently called by the incorrect name Book of Revelations. However, the actual title of the book is The Revelation of Jesus Christ ... unto his servant John, as it is rendered in the first verse. KJV It was one revelation given to John, not multiple revelations.

- The book of Revelation or The Apocalypse of John əˈpɑkəlɪps, from Greek ἀποκάλυψις ἀπο or apo- ["away from"] and κάλυψις or kaluptein ["cover"]—meaning literally "to pull the cover away from")[1] is the last canonical book of the New Testament in the Bible. It is the only biblical book that is wholly composed of apocalyptic literature. The book is frequently called by the incorrect name Book of Revelations. However, the actual title of the book is The Revelation of Jesus Christ ... unto his servant John, as it is rendered in the first verse. KJV It was one revelation given to John, not multiple revelations. After a short introduction (ch. 1:1–10), it contains an account of the author, who identifies himself as John, of two visions that he received on the isle of Patmos. The first vision (chs. 1:11–3:22), related by "one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle", speaking with "a great voice, as of a trumpet", are statements addressed to the seven churches of Asia. The second vision comprising the rest of the book (chs. 4–22) begins with "a door … opened in heaven" and describes the end of the world—involving the final rebellion by Satan at Armageddon, God's final defeat of Satan, and the restoration of peace to the world. Revelation is considered one of the most controversial and difficult books of the Bible, with many diverse interpretations of the meanings of the various names and events in the account. Protestant founder Martin Luther considered Revelation to be "neither apostolic nor prophetic" and stated that "Christ is neither taught nor known in it" [2], despite Christ's words in the very last verses. In the 4th century, St. John Chrysostom and other bishops argued against including this book in the New Testament canon, chiefly because of the difficulties of interpreting it and the danger for abuse. Christians in Syria also reject it because of the Montanists' heavy reliance on it. In the 9th century, it was included with the Apocalypse of Peter among "disputed" books in the Stichometry of St. Nicephorus, Patriarch of Constantinople. In the end it was included in the accepted canon, although it remains the only book of the New Testament that is not read within the Divine Liturgy of the Eastern Orthodox Church.
- The Book of Revelation is a written work within DEXTER. Created by author John the Revelator, the Book of Revelation tells of the End of Days (a concept for the End of the World, birthing the New World) brought on upon by Two Witnesses. Travis Marshall takes it to heart that he is one of these witnesses and that Professor James Gellar is the other. Travis's goal is to bring about the End of Days by enacting each of seven signs (referred to as Tableaus). An Early A.D. Cult known as the Enesserrette believed that this book was a Code for triggering the End of Days and later, a man named Professor James Gellar deciphered this code as seven sacrifices. Gellar would write down the notes required for each of these sacrifices, something that Travis Marshall would later discover and enact on his own behalf. Passages from the book have been referenced multiple times in the Doomsday Killer Investigation, specifically by Mike Anderson who researches and prepares large printouts of different verses within the text.
