Revelation of Ezra

The Revelation of Ezra (Revelatio Esdrae)[1] is a short Latin kalandologion, a type of almanac that gives meteorological, agricultural, economic and other predictions for any given year based on the day of the week on which it begins.

[3] The Revelation was composed in Latin by an anonymous author in Western Europe or North Africa no later than the ninth century and possibly much earlier.

[6] The use of the phrase "Lord's Day" marks its real author as at least a nominal Christian, but there is no attempt in the text to provide a theological justification for its fatalism.

[8][5] At a further remove is the Dead Sea scroll 4QCryptic, which predicts a person's physical characteristics from the zodiac at his birth.

[5] Other kalandologia identical in structure to the Revelation survive in both Latin and Greek.
