Book of Revelations
Why do they say "Book of Revelations" repeatedly? Anyone who's watched Jeopardy knows it is "Revelation".

shareYeah, it's no wonder this show is cancelled. Maybe they didn't have the budget to re-shoot the scenes with the correct dialogue, but something tells me they didn't notice the mistake to begin with.
shareNo reshooting is ver necessary to correct problems with dialogue. Dialogue is replaced during post-production all the time. This would have been a very easy fix.
I think no one involved in the production of this show is intelligent enough to know that the last book of the New Testament is called "Revelation." Simple as that.
I came here to say just this. It's been said several times through the series, but the last 2 episodes have been the most serious offenders. I just find it hilarious that it's almost always the clergymen that use it incorrectly.
shareIt's possible that it's the actors' fault. When you memorize lines, especially fast, it's easy to substitute your own words for the writers' words. If nobody was paying close attention...
shareEven though I always write it as "Revelation," I often pronounce it with an "s" at the end.
shareThis bothered me as well. But what really bothered me were the Priests using the plural. I mean, Priests saying "Revelations"? Seriously?
It's not about who you are or your fancy car. You're only ever who you were.
Amen. I saw that & thought if they were regular people not well versed in the Bible, this would be understandable, but every preacher I've ever listened to has correctly said Revelation.
Hey you! Is done by TV cops for foot chases. Real cops don't do this.
I know, that is a huge annoyance for me also. It would be like saying the book of Judes. Or the book of St. Johns. Cringeworthy at best. Apparently they got Romans and Revelation somewhat discombobulated and combined the titles.
shareThis one doesn't bother me since the Bible is a collection of 66 books. It is quite common to say "the book of ..." as in, "Let's open our Bibles to the Book of Genesis".
shareIf you want to get that snarky fine. It is actually the Apocalypse.
"The Book of Revelation, often known simply as Revelation or The Apocalypse, is the final book of the New Testament and occupies a central place in Christian eschatology. Written in Koine Greek, its title is derived from the first word of the text, apokalypsis, meaning "unveiling" or "revelation". The Book of Revelation is the only apocalyptic document in the New Testament canon, although there are short apocalyptic passages in various places in the Gospels and the Epistles."
I'm not going into it any further but read on its history. It is referred to as a book. It was in the back of the Catholic bible as an apocryphal writing but totally accepted only by Protestants who came much later and not all sects. It's not an issue with a work of fiction. They can take anything religious and twist it and turn it because it isn't a documentary. It's a total work of fiction and needs to be left at that.
