According to the New Testament, the Book of Revelation contains 22 chapters.
Revelation is the final book of the Christian New Testament and is divided into twenty-two numbered chapters in modern editions. Its opening identifies the work as an apocalypse and presents messages addressed to seven churches in the Roman province of Asia. Later sections include visions of heavenly worship, judgments, symbolic beasts, and the New Jerusalem.
The chapter divisions are editorial features rather than part of the original manuscript composition. They were added many centuries after the text was written, as happened with chapter divisions throughout the Bible. Verse numbering came later still.
The book is traditionally associated with John, who says he was on the island of Patmos when he received the revelation. Its imagery has generated many interpretations, but the chapter count is a straightforward bibliographic fact. Revelation should also be distinguished from the Gospel of John and the three New Testament letters that bear John’s name.
