Revelation (Everyday Bible Commentary Series)

by Charles C Ryrie

Overview

Revelation is a wild book. It’s full of strange hybrid animals with extra wings, horns, and eyes. It contains both descriptions of historical events and prophecies about the future. And it can be difficult to know which parts are figurative and which parts are literal. What we need is a guide—someone who will tell us what’s historical and what’s prophetic, and explain all the strange symbolism clearly and simply. This is what the best preachers do, but you don’t have to wait until Sunday’s sermon. Encounter the beautiful depth of Revelation through an enlightening verse-by-verse commentary from Charles Ryrie that’s both straightforward and insightful. You’ll gain:

• Important historical background
• Insights from the original language
• Explanations of the prophetic symbols
• And more!

You don’t have to go to seminary to encounter God in exciting, new ways through His Word. Discover how much more enjoyable your personal study will be with understandable, quality Bible commentary for everyday life.
