The Templar Revelation: Secret Guardians of the True Identity of Christ 170 reviews
Lynn Picknett, Clive Prince
Touchstone, 1998
Excellent Research
I recently re-read this book, after seeing the authors sitting in Tom Hank's bus in the Da Vinci Code movie. It really is a superb piece of historical investigation. Shame the public didn't catch on to this one instead of Dan Brown's rip off. The key point of the book is that the real indentity of Christ, as far as the Knights Templar and other heretical groups were concerned, was not Jesus, but ...

The Revelation
All of Beverly Lewis's book are well written, they keep your attention. Along with the story they give an small view into the Amish way of life and their beliefs. Altogether Ms. Lewis offers a good read as well interesting information.

A Divine Revelation of Hell337 reviews
Mary K. Baxter
Whitaker House, 1997
A must read!!
This book has opened up my eyes to the truth about Hell! I have read in the Bible about Hell but this book tells the discription more clearly. It was hard to read this book because I think we all know someone in hell. I recommend this book to everyone so they will know that Hell is real and that they need to have Jesus as there Lord and SAVIOR! (from Hell) Jesus said,"I am the way, the truth and ...

Mass Effect: Revelation62 reviews
Drew Karpyshyn
Del Rey, 2007
Hooked!
This book is a prequel to one of the best games ever made. Having already played through the game I decided to get this book. I recieved the book on a Friday and by Sunday night I was done, not because the book was short, but because I could not put it down. I recommend this book to any fan of the game, and anyone looking for a GREAT READ!

Revelation (God's Word for the Biblically-Inept Series)22 reviews
Daymond R. Duck
Starburst Publishers, 1997
"Makes Revelation not only easy--but actually fun to study!"
***This review would include the DANIEL work by the same author** Revelation is, without a doubt, one of my sixty-six favorite Bible books to study! I've probably studied (and taught) this book more than any other, and there are very few Revelation commentaries I haven't used. This commentary though, is unique. The author is dispensational, millennial, and pre-tribulational in his approach. Let's ...

The Theology of the Book of Revelation (New Testament Theology) 12 reviews
Richard Bauckham
Cambridge University Press, 1993
The Best on the subject
I have read this book at least five times and will read it again, because it is quite simply the best read on the subject. It is not a verse by verse commentary, but a theological commentary that is reader friendly, but one recognizes the depth of research and understanding of history that Bauckham pours into this book. He has another book called The Climax of Prophecy that carries much of the ...

Revelation: Four Views: A Parallel Commentary37 reviews
Thomas Nelson, 1997
Fun and helpful
While a book as symbolic and mysterious is bound to generate diverse secondary literature, this one is the one I would recommend, in part because it acknowledges the diversity. The book is literally divided into four columns across every page, with four different viewpoints on each passage of the biblical text.
Gregg presents four alternate views of Revelation, the Historicist (a less common ...

Revelation Unveiled66 reviews
Tim LaHaye
Zondervan, 1999
Awesome, do NOT miss this one!!!!
Liberal Christians hate it, and that says a lot it all in my book! As for the book itself, it is a clear, practical look at the Book of Revelation. If folks don't like this book it is because they are fearful of what the Book of Revelation tells us is going to happen to the unbelieving and apostate amongst us. Christians you will LOVE this book if you struggle to understand the Book of ...

Revelation and the End of All Things11 reviews
Craig R. Koester
Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 2001
level headed reading
simply outstanding! this book deals with the book of revelation and "end times" stuff related therein, with sobriety, sanity and a truly God honoring, Christ honoring manner and message. The author recognizes the need to understand revelation according to it's literary type and according to it's first century context as well, while yet recognizing that it is meant for all christians at all ...

The Revelation Record: A Scientific and Devotional Commentary on the Prophetic Book of the End of Times12 reviews
Henry M. Morris
Tyndale House Publishers, 1983
God "Blessed" This Man With Incredible Wisdom & Discernment!
Having read and studied many, many books and commentaries on the Book of Revelation, this work of Mr. Morris's is truly the "Best Of The Best"! He lays out a common sense approach to each chapter and verse and also adds many other scripture references that "tie" in with the Revelation verses, showing that much time and study preceded the penning of this work! God never intended for us (His True ...

The Book of Revelation (The Smart Guide to the Bible Series)1 review
Daymond R. Duck
Thomas Nelson, 2006
REVELATION FOR THE BIBLICALLY INEPT
The entire series of Biblically inept (Smart Guide) are awesome. For those who need it in simple terms, for preachers who want to explain it as simple as possible these books are great. The Bible tells us to make it plain and in all our getting get an understanding. With this series you and accomplish what the Bible says. I love the commentaries inside, the way that the Scriptures are broken ...

Revelation (Baker Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament)5 reviews
Grant R. Osborne
Baker Academic, 2002
Excellent for students and teachers
More accessible for the student than Beale, he is very readable and lucid and the layout is clear. He compares the views of different commentators (useful because he includes Beale and Aune). He deals with most options on difficult passages before coming to his own conclusion. Despite its size he is not over detailed. His interpretation is eclectic, i.e. he combines preterist, idealist and ...

Breaking the Code: Understanding the Book of Revelation - Leader's Guide Edition24 reviews
Bonn Downall
Abingdon Press, 2006
Solid and readable
The first thing one must admit in reviewing one of Metzger's work is that next to no one is qualified to review one of Metzger's works. One of the most noted biblical scholars of a century, it's unlikely that any casual reader can take aim at him.
That said, the book is written for the casual reader, and in that sense is very accessible and unintimidating. There are even points at which, for ...

The Complete Idiot's Guide(R) to the Book of Revelation6 reviews
James S. Bell, Stan Campbell
Alpha, 2001
"Except for 'Dragons, Grasshoppers & Frogs!', this is as simple as it gets!"
I cannot understand why anyone (with the pretribulational perspective) would not like this book. It is entertaining, well designed, and fun to read. Bell quotes many scholars, and presents the information in an anything but boring manner.
Differing views are presented fairly, and historical tidbits are welcome insertions. So are the present-day applications.
Revelation doesn't get much ...

Revelation (Life Application Bible Commentary)2 reviews
Tyndale House Publishers, 2000
A readable commentary for the young Christian.
This commentary is aimed for the young Christian and the group study leader. It is well designed and easy to navigate. It is also reasonably detailed and readable. Generally it gives the various alternative interpretations for difficult texts, including the rapture and millennium. The text of Revelation is in bold, and the comments are on one or two verses at a time, with the fragment of text ...

Larry R. Helyer, Richard Wagner
For Dummies, 2008
REVELATION REALLY MADE EASY TO UNDERSTAND
The "Book Of Revelation for Dummies" is a great book for individuals who wish to study the Book Of Revelation. I have read several books on Revelation and this one really helps you understand the prophecy contained within the Book of Revelation. I would recommend this to everyone who is studying or wishes to study prophecy in the Bible.
