Description

Bock interprets John's rich pictorial language, often found harsh and mysterious, and we understand that John is dealing with the universal problems of spiritual development. This is not just a detailed commentary on the Apocalypse. It is a profound and encouraging examination of human needs in today's world, and shows how we can read Revelation to understand Christ's position as leader through danger in the present and the future.
