| Summary: | In the book of Revelation, everyone is invited to be wise. Sophia ("Here is wisdom", Rev 13, 18) is not so much a static factor but a dynamic component: it is the well-developed ability to interpret history and to perceive the sense of fate. The one gifted with intelligence (noùs, Rev. 13, 8) will be apt to interpret the course of the events by implementing this compliant mechanism. We are faced to an original conception of Wisdom, which is borrowed to Hellenism as well as to the semitic perspective, as proved by the recurrence of the word mystèrion ("mystery", Rev 1, 20 ; 10, 7 ; 17, 5.7) and of the syntagm "to have ears" (échein oùs, Rev 2, 7.11.17.29 ; 3, 6.13.22 ; 13, 9). Being wise leads to grasp the optimal measure of man, within the glorious scenario of the new creation (cf. Rev 21, 1-22, 5). |
