End time teaching is abundant and many have differing views. Dr. Keener focuses on the text and its application for the church today as well as what our response to the text should be. He focuses on the ancient rather than modern background and reaffirms the value of previous approaches.
The NIV Application Commentary Series helps bring both halves of the interpretive task together. This unique, award-winning series shows readers how to bring an ancient message into our postmodern context. It explains not only what the Bible meant but also how it speaks powerfully today.

It is a refreshing look at Revelation. If one is struggling with applying a text in Revelation, this commentary will help.

I have the best and biggest commentaries on Revelation (Aune`s and Beale`s), but this one is so so good!. If you want a very good historical critical commentary,written really in simple english by a christian scholar, a commentary that thrills your heart, a commentary that makes Jesus present for you giving you His multifaceted love, this one is for you. I hope all the exegetes were like Craig Keener, and all the biblical commentaries were like this one. Buy it, and
you`ll be happy.
