The Book of Revelation is well-known by its extensive use of the Old Testament. This use is accomplished not by means of exact citation but through allusions. The measure of nearness of these allusions to the primary text, which they refer to, is diff erent. There are several allusions to Psalm 2 in the text of the Apocalypse, some of which are very close to the text of the Psalm and could be characterized as «quotation-like». The examination of these allusions is of great interest because of the fact that Ps 2 as an utter messianic text drew to itself attention of both Jewish and early Christian authors. The analysis of how Ps 2 is used in Book of Revelation may uncover the singularity of the Apocalypse in comparison with intertestamental Jewish and New Testament books. It is shown in the article that, unlike the Gospels, Acts and the Epistle to the Hebrews, the Seer is focused on the verse Ps 2. 9 which tells us about the victory of the Anointed One over the rebelling nations. In this respect the Apocalypse seems to be closer to the Jewish Psalm of Solomon 17 where through allusions to Ps 2 the military triumph of the Messiah is depicted. The Christian singularity of the Apocalypse is manifested, however, in the identifi cation of the Warrior-Messiah with the Lamb and the One like the Son of Man. In the article is also shown that the allusions of the Apocalypse to the Ps 2 are close to the text of the Septuagint. The presence of allusions to Ps 2 in all greater parts of the Book of Revelation and their extraordinary significance in the presentation of the image of Christ in the Apocalypse make this Psalm one of the «basic» texts of the last book of the Bible.

In ordinary usage the word “apocalypse” often means catastrophes and fi nal perdition. Frequently readers understand this way also the last book of the Holy Scripture. Such a view of it is an embarrassing mistake. The greek word “apokalypsis” means “revelation” and does not hold any negative sense. A revelation can concern the most favorable things. This is completely true relating to the Book of Revelation. This book tells about the people of God in communion with its Saviour whatever happens around. The positive values, one of which is the beauty, are here necessarily in the foreground. The beauty is present both in the imagery of the book and in its well proportioned literary structure. First, in the Apocalypse the beauty marks the realm of holiness — here belong the images of God, Christ and heavenly beings. But faithful human beings as well can partake of this beauty by virtue of their unity with Christ realized in martyrdom or in liturgical worship of Him. The beauty, however, characterizes also the ungodly powers (the great whore Babylon), but only in the sense of usurpation of the creative ability, which is given by God to the intelligent creatures, and using it in their own sinful interests. To break with the world of this ungodly beauty is an absolute demand of the Apocalypse of John.
