520 |a The article examines how Augustine’s interpretation of the “book of life” (liber vitae uniuscuiusque) in Rev20:12 and the “book of life” (liber vitae) in Rev20:15 in De civitate dei20,14–15 seems to put him at variance with his own theory of predestination. The contradictions that his two “books of life” create are explored in connection with his use of language, his previous and incompatible interpretations of liber vitae in the course of 27years (so far unaddressed in scholarship), tensions internal to Revelation, conflicts intrinsic to Augustine’s theory of predestination, and other interpretations of liber/libri vitae in the patristic literature. Showing that Augustine could not offer a commentary consistent both with Rev20:12–15 and his own views on judgement and predestination contributes something to the virtually unexplored interplay between Augustine’s theory of predestination, De civitate dei and Revelation.
