AND, if that were not enough, also a volume by Ewald:
Revelation: Its Nature and Record
- Author: Georg Heinrich Ewald
- Translator: Rev. Thomas Goadby
- Publisher: T & T Clark
- Publication Date: 1884
- Pages: 493
Prominent German scholar and theologian Georg Heinrich Ewald provides an academic lens for this complicated book of the New Testament. Approaching the text from a scientific point of view, Ewald examines Revelation and religion in light of historical and social contexts. There are three sections:
- The Nature of the Revelation of the Word of God
- Revelation in Heathenism and in Nature
- Revelation in the Bible
He covers topics such as true community, stages and results of revelation, and the influence of the Holy Spirit. Believing that the Bible is the inspired Word of God, and that a social and historical understanding can illuminate our understanding of it, Ewald presents a readable yet academic reading for the book of Revelation.
Georg Heinrich Ewald was a German theologian and professor who specialized in Asian studies, the Old Testament, and philosophy. He was born in 1803, son of a linen weaver. Professor at the University of Göttingen for ten years, Ewald was expelled for protesting against King Ernst August. He went on to become a professor at Tübingen, but returned to Göttingen after the liberal constitution was put in place again. Ewald wrote several scholarly works, including The History of Israel and Prophets of the Old Testament. He died in 1875, after a long and fruitful academic career.

Interesting, I've not heard of Ewald but I did some research on the concept of inspiration in Homer, Hesiod, and Plato, so this should be interesting.
