The Bible's Book of Revelation and the Maya Calendar

The video explores the origins and significance of the Bible's Book of Revelation, believed to be written by John of Patmos in the Cave of the Apocalypse. It details John's visions of the end times, including cosmic battles and the final judgment. The video also discusses the Maya Long Count Calendar, which some interpreted as predicting the world would end in 2012.
