Book Review: Everyman's Bible Commentary--Revelation, by Charles C. Ryrie

My study of the book of Revelation has spanned a good part of my life. I am a total Bible prophecy nerd. So when I was given the opportunity to review a commentary on the book of Revelation, I immediately jumped at the opportunity. 

I think that Ryrie did an excellent job at outlining and commenting on the book of Revelation. The main purpose I put into my reading was to find areas that are often problems in studying Bible prophecy and to see how he handled those issues. Ryrie did an excellent job of covering those problem passages, most notably the idea of salvation in the Tribulation, often a highly debated issue. This commentary did a good job of fulfilling its purpose: making the teachings of the Bible understandable for people of all different backgrounds, not just the pastors of the world. 

I look forward to seeing the new cover that will be coming out for this commentary series. It will, I am sure, bring new life to a very good commentary. 5 stars out of 5.
