Romans and Revelations and Locusts, oh my!
Well, Miranda is properly horrified at any rate.
Aislinn revisits Nero Caesar and his potential connection to the book of Revelation, written long after his time. Was the Beast of the Sea that John wrote about modeled after the notorious Roman Emperor? Or could the similarities between the man and the prophecy be just a coincidence?
If you're at all interested in learning about the Roman Empire around the time of Nero or about what the Bible's Revelation actually talks about, you won't want to miss this episode.
