The Book of Nepos was a 3rd-century Christian text written by an Egyptian bishop of Arsinoe named Nepos, which advocated for a strictly literal interpretation of the Bible, thus against allegorical readings. This included especially a literal reading of the Book of Revelation, a minority position at the time.
