Revalation of John

Book was received as promised and in excellent condition. I've had no problems with purchasing used books from recommended dealers.

Barclay is for Everyone

Barclay, one of the foremost Biblical and New Testament professors from the 20th century, wrote this series of commentaries to appeal to the 101 student, preachers and lay bible study leaders. It is NOT meant for seminary or in-depth study. His writing style is easy, informative and he actually uses a lot of Greek text to form his commentary. But you don't need Greek to use his work. His approach is to open the readers eyes to the setting and background of the Biblical text. It is a timeless commentary I use all the time as a springboard for preaching and for leading Bible Study.

Excellent , as is volume 1

See my notes on volume 1. The enthusiasm continues unabated

Best commentary available for a layperson

Volumes 1 and 2 of this series are the best commentaries a lay reader of Revelation can obtain and read. Barclay's work is solid, scholarly, practical, readable, and reliable
