Week 6
There has arisen from its narrow limits
My self and finds itself
As revelation of all worlds
Within the sway of time and space;
The world, as archetype divine,
Displays to me at every turn
The truth of my own likeness.
Week 32
I feel my own force, bearing fruit
And gaining strength to give me to the world.
My inmost being I feel charged with power
To turn with clearer insight
Toward the weaving of life's destiny.
—Translation by Ruth and Hans Pusch

John's Book of Revelation ‘the Apocalypse’ has been subjected to countless interpretations by theologians over the years, mostly based on theory and speculation. In contrast, Rudolf Steiner spoke from his own direct experience and knowledge of the spiritual truths contained in St. John's mysterious pictures.
These 18 lectures were given by Rudolf Steiner at Dornach in September of 1924. They make up the entirety of the lecture series entitled, The Apocalypse, published in German as, Apokalypse und Priesterwirken.
