Here the reader meets many of the picturesque images that are identified with Revelation--the four horses and their riders, the antichrist, the woman clothed with the sun, the beast with his number, Armageddon. William Barclay helps the reader understand and interpret these and many other images drawn from Revelation that have so seized hold of the world's imagination.

For almost fifty years and for millions of readers, the Daily Study Bible commentaries have been the ideal help for both devotional and serious Bible study. Now, with the release of the New Daily Study Bible, a new generation will appreciate the wisdom of William Barclay. With clarification of less familiar illustrations and inclusion of more contemporary language, the New Daily Study Bible will continue to help individuals and groups discover what the message of the New Testament really means for their lives.

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.
