Syracuse Herald-Journal
The ''Syracuse Herald-Journal'' (1925–2001) was an evening newspaper in Syracuse, New York, United States, with roots going back to 1839 when it was named the ''Western State Journal''. The final issue — volume 124, number 37,500 — was published on September 29, 2001. The newspaper's name came from the merger of the ''Syracuse Herald'' and the ''Syracuse Journal''. History Publisher William Randolph Hearst, who had purchased the Syracuse, New York, newspaper the ''Syracuse Telegram'', closed that newspaper on November 24, 1925, with issue No. 925. At that time, the ''Syracuse Telegram'' and the Sunday edition, the ''Syracuse American'' a.k.a. the ''Syracuse Sunday American'', merged with ''The Journal'', an old Syracuse institution that was established on July 4, 1844. In the days of extremely partisan newspapers, it held the reputation as one of the strongest Republican publications in New York state. The merger was accomplished after Hearst acquired a controlling inte ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Book Of Revelation
The Book of Revelation is the final book of the New Testament (and consequently the final book of the Christian Bible). Its title is derived from the first word of the Koine Greek text: , meaning "unveiling" or "revelation". The Book of Revelation is the only apocalyptic book in the New Testament canon. It occupies a central place in Christian eschatology. The author names himself as simply "John" in the text, but his precise identity remains a point of academic debate. Second-century Christian writers such as Papias of Hierapolis, Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, Melito of Sardis, Clement of Alexandria, and the author of the Muratorian fragment identify John the Apostle as the "John" of Revelation. Modern scholarship generally takes a different view, with many considering that nothing can be known about the author except that he was a Christian prophet. Modern theological scholars characterize the Book of Revelation's author as "John of Patmos". The bulk of traditional sources ...
