Gives a thoroughly Catholic understanding of the Book of Revelation. We're so used to the modern "premillenialist" view of the book so typical of Evangelicalism, but this commentary brings out the traditional Catholic understanding of the Apocalypse. Has the text of the book in English (RSVCE) and Latin (New Vulgate) plus commentary drawn from the writings of Saints and Church Fathers.

This is a a more traditional treatment of the Epistles based on sound scholarship, exegesis, and biblical archeology. It will challeneg more popular scripture scholarship to son degree and will not espouse a liberal interpretation. Howeevr, for those who make scripture scholarship an important part of their life or work, this is a must book to have.

The Navarre College's commentary and text of the book of Revelation is an excellent rendition of this particular book of the Bible. Featuring both the Latin Vulgate and the English translation, along with a great deal of selected commentaries, many of which are from Jose Maria Escrivá.

This edition is excellent, making it ideal for the casual reader, the Bible study, and the Latin scholar alike.
