This volume is the first examination of the New Testament as a Greco-Roman legal document known as a 'testament'. The book of Revelation was crucial for authorizing the New Testament as a genuine testament. However, Revelation was omitted from many New Testaments for a thousand years until commentators reintegrated it.
