S.S. Smalley and New Revelation Commentary



This is just out from IVP

THE REVELATION TO JOHN
A Commentary on the Greek Text of the Apocalypse
Stephen S. Smalley






The Blurb from IVP reads:

The Revelation to John by Stephen Smalley is a magisterial interpretation of John's Apocalypse as a grand drama, which can only be properly understood in light of John's Gospel and letters and in the context of the Johannine community. As such, it offers the reader a significantly different approach to this enigmatic text than that offered by most contemporary commentaries. Working directly from the Greek text, Smalley offers a masterful analysis of the critical and literary dimensions of the Apocalypse for students and scholars alike.


Why isn't Alan Bandy at Cafe Apocalypsis, our resident Revelation blogger, onto this one! Tut, tut, tut - you're gonna have to lift your game Alan and keep us informed of these developments :)

I have been aware of it for several months, sorry I never bothered to annouce its arrival.
