Summary/Abstract: This article explores the concept of priesthood in the Book of Revelation through its cultic and liturgical texts. It examines the role of worship in the book, considering arguments that its structure is based on a liturgy. The article analyzes worshipful scenes described in Revelation and their location (heavenly or earthly). Finally, it develops the idea that the Book of Revelation was intended to be read as part of worship, arguing that its liturgical elements contribute to the understanding of the priesthood described.
