A fantastic and thorough commentary on Revelation. Hailey is of the spiritual school of thought on Revelation, accepting the late date, but strives to always keep Revelation in its first century context. The commentary makes proper application of previous Biblical references, and has a helpful list of common meanings for the various numbers in Revelation.
Indispensable for a proper understanding of Revelation.

The book title introduces the reader to a question of profound interest in Christendom. The authors analyzes are hard to refute and not accepted by a good number of conservative Christians. Perhaps the best part of the book is its study on law, covenants, and accountability.

The author provides an introduction to each book and uses a narrative format to explain the text. The author has a high view of the inspiration of Scripture and sought to use the best historical knowledge available in his day to illuminate the text. The author also interacts with many other commentarians, but does not use Hebrew/Greek/etc. evidence often.
The author is also known for his commentaries on Isaiah, Daniel, and Revelation, and does not propound the premillennial interpretation of either the Old or New Testament. The author attempts to understand the prophecies in context and in terms of Christ and His Kingdom (the Kingdom as reflected in the church). To that end the commentary is quite useful in not attempting to project fulfillments of the messages to the present day.
A solid introductory commentary.… (more)
