The Apocalypse of John Chrysostom, also called the Second Apocryphal Apocalypse of John, is a Christian text composed in Greek between the 6th and 8th centuries AD.Шаблон:Sfn Although the text is often called an apocalypse by analogy with the similarly structured First Apocryphal Apocalypse of John,Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn the text is not a true apocalypse.Шаблон:Sfn In the manuscripts, it is called "a word of teaching" or "a treatise".Шаблон:Sfn It is usually classified as part of the New Testament apocrypha because it describes an apocryphal encounter between John of Patmos and Jesus.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn In a number of manuscripts, it is presented as a sermon of John Chrysostom, who, rather than the apostle, is Jesus's interlocutor.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn

The basic structure, which it shares with the First Apocalypse, is erotapocritic (question-and-answer), but, whereas in the First Apocalypse the questions deal with eschatology, in the Apocalypse of John Chrysostom they mostly concern earthly matters.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn John asks Jesus about sin, Sundays, fasting, the meaning of the liturgy, deference to priests, baptism, the proper length of hair and love.Шаблон:Sfn

François Nau first published the text with a French translation based on the 16th-century manuscript Parisinus Graecus 947, where it is found at folios 276–282, at the end of a collection of miscellaneous texts. There it is written in garbled Cypriot Greek, probably a translation from an earlier vernacular Greek original. Nau believed that the original was also written on Cyprus.Шаблон:Sfn There is an English translation.Шаблон:Sfn
