IMHO the best commentary available on the Book of Revelation. Caird does an outstanding job of tracing the Hebrew Bible's antecedents that inform much of Revelation's text and does a consistently excellent job of exegeting the material in relation to its original context. It is an academic book though it's neither pedantic or tedious. If you want to understand Revelation then this is the book to read. My highest recommendation.
