A fantastic and thorough commentary on Revelation. Hailey is of the spiritual school of thought on Revelation, accepting the late date, but strives to always keep Revelation in its first century context. The commentary makes proper application of previous Biblical references, and has a helpful list of common meanings for the various numbers in Revelation.
Indispensable for a proper understanding of Revelation. ( )
