by Bruce M. Metzger, David A. deSilva (Editor)

The Book of Revelation contains passages of great beauty and comfort, as well as passages that strike the casual reader as bizarre, bewildering, and sometimes frightening. How are readers today to discern God's message in this peculiar part of the Bible?

The six-session DVD features David deSilva guiding participants through the study. Each video segment is approximately 10-12 minutes in length and, when combined with the six book chapters, make an ideal six-week group study. All videos sessions are closed captioned.

I found this book to be very useful in understanding the symbolism of The Book of Revelation. Our Bible Study group read & discussed it over a 6 week period.
