Let me begin by saying that Dr. McGee has been the inspiration for my book on Revelation "Dragons, Grasshoppers & Frogs". I should like to make two statements regarding that book. First, it is written for teens. Second, nothing I write will ever be as wonderful as the writings of Dr. McGee.

I have had the honor of taking the 'five year' trip through the bible several times with Dr. McGee. I know what he will say before he says it, and I find him correct about 99.9% of the time. I attended his seminary, and he is 'unofficially' the finest bible teacher I've ever had. Now, on to this book.

This book is intentionally brief. It is written for the average Joe, and is pre-millennial and pre-tribulational. Dr. McGee believes in a Rapture of the believers and a literal Kingdom coming to the earth. I agree with him.

If you would like to go into a bit more depth, I would suggest writing the Thru the Bible organization and purchasing Dr. McGee's study series on Revelation. It offers more insight. For the ultimate purchase, get this study series of tapes which are the most exhaustive tape set on Revelation ever produced.

If you are new to Revelation, this brief guide will get your foot in the door. The one thing you can count on in everything Dr. McGee writes is that it will be doctrinally sound. His love and reverence for the Word of God takes first place in everything he teaches.

God grant that my meager writing attempts will come close to bringing the blessing to others Dr. McGee has brought to me.

What a great Bible teacher. If you like McGee, let me make another suggestion. If you want to understand prophecy (specifically the Premillennial/Pretribulational model) within the context and flow of the Bible, I suggest you check out the book "The History of the Future: A Commentary on Revelation and Matthew 24" by Marvin Blackburn, Timothy D. Blackburn. This is an excellent book for the beginner and more advanced student.

Dr. J. Vernon McGee is one of the best authors on Revelation in my opinion. He explains it so much that a lay person and understand this very difficult books.

I highly recommend this book if you want to understand Revelation.

Excellent study guide on the book of revelation. There are three volumes in this series that cover the book of revelation. These commentaries answer a lot of questions.

I ordered this book for my mother. She loves it. She has read all 3 of the books on Revelation. She even had me order a set for a friend of hers.
