Based upon an integrated reading of the historical, literary, and practical, Dr. May presents a study on Revelation that captures John's hope for his first listeners and the ramifications for contemporary Christians. This study helps interpreters better understand and empathize with the original listeners. It also illustrates the literary mastery with whiach John composed this work. For those who are eager to explore a new way to read Revelation, this study will help learners gain a deeper appreciation for this most enigmatic of New Testament books.

In selective passages from Revelation, Dr. may helps students of Revelation find new ways to read an ancient vision that speaks about the past, present, and the future. By interweaving the ancient world of the original, John, with contemporary concerns of the church, this volume helps learners see that Revelation continues to reveal truths to those who seek to hear its original message. Readers are challenged to study Revelation from the vantage points of the history, culture, original audience, and literary skills of its writers. Those who study Revelation can also learn how to empathize with those for whom it was originally written.

Revelation
Smyth & Helwys Bible Commentary
Mitchell Reddish

This commentary on the book of Revelation, by Mitchell Reddish, combines serious scholarship with contemporary application of the texts, helping the modern reader understand and appreciate the last book of the Bible. For many persons in the church, Revelation has frequently become a non-functioning part of the canon. Reddish believes that the church has an obligation to reclaim the book of Revelation and allow it to speak afresh as a powerful voice containing the message of God. Learn more about the Commentary

The visual and auditory richness of Revelation is an important part of the presentation of John's message. Reddish maintains that the visions, symbols, and seemingly strange images in the book are to be experienced more than explained, become the genius of Revelation is found in the cumulative effect of these imaginative components of John’s writings.
