📚 Historical Context
The Book of Revelation was written by the Apostle John during his exile on the island of Patmos, likely around AD 95 under the Roman Emperor Domitian, a time when Christians faced severe persecution for their faith. This context of oppression made the book's prophetic messages a source of encouragement, assuring believers that God's justice and victory were near. The verse specifically promises a blessing to those who not only read and hear the prophecy but also obey it, emphasizing the urgency of the events foretold.
