Revelation

by William C. Pender

The book of Revelation is a literary mosaic of images borrowed from ancient Jewish writings, collected together to energize the church during a period of domination under Roman rule. Though many turn to Revelation to find graphic and horrific speculation about the future, this volume shows that the real message of Revelation is one of encouragement and hope, looking toward God's ultimate victory over evil and suffering. On that day, even death will be locked up, and the key will be thrown away. The faithful who have endured to the end will be gathered into the company of God in a new heaven and a new earth, where God will wipe away every tear.

I enjoyed Pender’s Interpretation Bible Study on Revelation. He provides a brief but well-considered examination of the key themes of John’s vision. This is a very helpful guide and a worshipful exploration.

Pender does NOT cover every chapter of Revelation in this study. But you will get lots of good insight into the book generally and certainly into the chapters that are addressed.

I am working my way thru Revelation using several studies, commentaries, and other books. This volume by Pender is one of my favorites!

All of the books in this series are written by different authors. This one is the most impressive one out of all those I have read. It is easy to understand and tightly focused. It generated some very good discussions in Bible Study.
