For an argument that the book of Revelation is structured into two main
parts, see Adela Yarbro Collins, The CombatMyth in the Bookof Revelation(HDR 9;
Missoula, MT: Scholars Press, 1976), pp. 5-32.

the book of Relevation is Wilhelm Bousset, Die Offenbarungjohannis(Göttingen:
Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 1966; reprint of the 6th edn, 1906).
3 Hos. 1-3; Ezek. 16,23; Isa. 54,60,62,66; Mic. 4: 9-10.
