Subscribe to Le Jour du Seigneur (The Lord's Day) here 👉 https://bit.ly/3RDeib1 Based on his book with the striking title, "Glimmers of Hope: The Apocalypse," Michel Poffet reveals how this book, far from being the tragedy we might imagine, is indeed a source of hope for those who read it, keeping in mind the Paschal Lamb, Christ, the keystone of our hope from yesterday to today, until the Second Coming. The episode begins with an introduction to Jean-Michel Poffet, a Dominican friar and eminent biblical scholar from Fribourg. After completing a doctorate in the history of exegesis, he taught at the University of Fribourg and was appointed director of the French Biblical and Archaeological School of Jerusalem in 1999. In 2009, he received the Legion of Honor, and in 2023, he was awarded the title of Master of Sacred Theology by the Dominicans. The interview focuses on his latest book, "Éclat d'Espérance, l'Apocalypse" (Glimmer of Hope, the Apocalypse). Poffet explains that the term "apocalypse" means "revelation" in Greek and "unveiling" in Latin, not "catastrophe" as it is often understood today. He emphasizes that the Book of Revelation is a book of hope, centered on the Paschal Lamb, which represents God's victory over evil and the promise of eternal life. Poffet points out that the Book of Revelation contains numerous allusions to the Old Testament, which can make it difficult to understand. He describes the Book of Revelation as a rewriting of key passages from the Old Testament in light of the Passover lamb, with a universal appeal. He clarifies that the author of Revelation, often called John of Patmos, is probably not the same as the evangelist John. Revelation is described as a literature of crisis, used by both Jews and Christians to express hope in times of persecution and despair. Poffet explains that Revelation begins with a beatitude, promising happiness and success to those who read and heed the words of the prophecy. He also discusses the "wrath of God" as a response to injustice and violence, but always with mercy. The episode explores the sevenfold nature of Revelation, particularly the horsemen of the Apocalypse, who symbolize war, famine, and death. Poffet explains that these visions are symbols of human reality and of hope in God's ultimate victory. He emphasizes that the Book of Revelation is not a book about the end times, but a revelation of God's victory over evil, already underway since the coming of Jesus Christ. Poffet concludes by stressing the importance of hope and prayer in the Christian life, and by encouraging believers to be attentive to the word of God, even in times of crisis and persecution.
