in Imperial cult

Scherrer, Stephen Joseph: ”Signs and Wonders in the Imperial Cult: A New Look at a Roman Religious Institution in the Light of Rev 13:13-15” in Journal of Biblical Literature 103 (1984): 599-610. Scherrer’s thesis supports the usual understanding of Rev 13, but, in my view, his arguments should only be followed with great caution.
