Are there among the books of the New Testament any apocalypse or prophecy?

The book of the Apocalypse (Revelation) of St John is both an apocalypse and a prophecy, the only New Testament book that pronounces a blessing on its reader and hearers: “Blessed is the one who reads the words of the prophecy and blessed are those who hear and observe the things that are written in it, for the time is at hand” (Rev 1:3).
