^{page 139 note 1} For the numerous exegetical difficulties cf. E. Lohmeyer, Die Offenbarung des Johannes, in his comments on pp. 13 and 17. Cf. also pp. 193, 194; 145, 146; 113–15. These problems are not overcome by Lider Brun, ‘Die Römischen Kaiser in der Apokalypse’, Z.N.W. xxvi (1926), 128–51, who attempts to refute Lohmeyer's thesis. Two primary external difficulties might be listed as: (1) This anti-state polemic is not encounted in the remainder of the New Testament and other early Christian literature (e.g. the sayings of Jesus, I Peter, Romans, I Clement). (2) Other writings of this same general area and period do reflect anti-gnostic problems in particular connexion with Jewish origins (e.g. Fourth Gospel, Johannine Epistles, Pastoral Epistles, James, Jude, II Peter, and Ignatius of Antioch). As examples of the internal problems (exclusive of the exegetical difficulties of 13 and 17) one might call to mind: (I) In the sections which must be recognized as speaking to its present situation there is no political hostility acknowledged, only hostility towards the ‘synagogue of Satan’, or ‘throne of Satan’, or ‘the works of the Nicolaitans’, or ‘the prophetess Jezebel’. (2) This approach immediately segments chapters 2 and 3 from the remainder of the book, for which there is no textual or internal support. (3) Finally, it is a valid canon of interpretation to interpret the more difficult passages in light of the more evident, and there is an evident anti-gnostic polemic in 2 and 3.
