The Apocalypse of St John: A Revelation of Love and Power by Fr Lawrence FarleyMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Listened to this over a 2-year period via Podcast (but also bought the written commentary).
Highly Recommended. The author is not only versed exegetically and historically in regards to interpretive issues but does a fantastic job bringing out the need for a deep understanding of the Old Testament if one is to rightly interpret Revelation. It is constantly (and rightly) emphasized that to understand Revelation and its intent, the book must be read and studied from the perspective of a faithful Jew - who is also a Christian. The author illustrates the point repeatedly and thoughtfully.
Highly Recommended.
