The Letters to the Churches in Asia
In this chapter, they discuss the letters that John writes to the churches in Asia, which contain both praise and criticism. They mention that these letters end with a promise of blessings for those who overcome, which are associated with the concept of deification. They also discuss a passage that talks about the synagogue of Satan, which has been used in anti-Semitic ways. They mention that there is debate about the meaning of this passage, but emphasize that it is important not to accuse Jews of being the synagogue of Satan.
