Revelation 4 is the fourth chapter of the Book of Revelation or the Apocalypse of John in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. The book is traditionally attributed to John the Apostle,[1][2] but the precise identity of the author remains a point of academic debate.[3] This chapter contains an inaugural vision of heaven, portraying the throne room of heaven,[4] and the heavenly worship which the writer observes there.[5][6]
