Description: No New Testament book has caused as much confusion and been subjected to as many varied interpretations as Revelation. Today we continue to witness a surge of popular interest in Bible prophecy and questions concerning such matters as the "last days" and the second coming of Christ. Scholarly debates continue as well, especially regarding the occurrence, timing, and theological significance of the tribulation and the millennium. It is therefore the special task of the commentator on Revelation to address such difficult questions in a scholarly and responsible manner that remains accessible to pastors, students, and general readers.

When first published, this volume on Revelation was widely praised as a standard commentary on the Apocalypse. In this edition, based on the text of the NIV and Nestle-Aland, Robert Mounce has revised and expanded his work to reflect more than twenty additional years of mature thought on Revelation and to bring his work up to date with current scholarship. As in the original edition, Mounce here engages seriously with the various approaches to interpretation and with the conventions common to apocalyptic literature. In affirming more directly his own reading of the Apocalypse, Mounce steers a middle course between an extreme literalism and a highly imaginative subjectivism, believing this to be the way the ancient text spoke to the first-century churches to whom it was addressed--and the way it still speaks to us today.

"This new edition of the commentary retains the virtues of the first: a well-balanced, traditional approach to the interpretation of Revelation, with a wealth of bibliographical references and a thoughtful, well-written commentary on the literary, historical, and theological significance of the text."
--The Bible Today

"A model of a good critical commentary.... Masterly.... Will become the standard evangelical commentary on the Apocalypse."
--Christianity Today

"The commentary is clearly written and argued and should be on the shelf of any serious student of Revelation."
--Religious Studies Review

"Perhaps the best single volume at a highly accessible level...a learned and well-written work that not only explains the text satisfactorily in most instances but also introduces the student to the best of the secondary literature."
--D. A. Carson, New Testament Commentary Survey (Sixth Edition)

Mounce writes from a historic premillennial perspective, in the tradition of George Eldon Ladd. --Monergism Books
