| Introduction | In 1929 Irene Barbara Parris was born into a loving family near Shawnee, OK. Irene spent her childhood working in the fields and woods and walking to school and to church. She reveled in the beauty of nature all around her. Irene began an intensive study of the Book of Revelation to answer her children's questions, as well as her own. At the age of fifty-six she completed a Bachelor of Arts degree in linguistics at the University of Oklahoma and was elected to Phi Beta Kappa. A volunteer tour with Wycliffe Bible Translators gave her insight into translation and literacy. She applied her linguistic training to the research of the context of the Book of Revelation. |
