Craig Koester -- Luther Seminary, St. Paul, Minnesota "This is a welcome addition to recent literature on Revelation. It offers a multidimensional perspective on the book that gives special attention to its literary character and theological dimensions. By bringing the perspectives of a biblical scholar and a systematic theologian together, the commentary serves as an invitation for others to join in the dialogue about the interpretation and significance of Revelation's visionary text." Robert W. Wall -- Seattle Pacific University and Seminary "An evocative, provocative theological commentary of first rank. Chris Thomas's fine commentary is informed not only by his fluent reading of the sacred text and its many interpreters but also by his deep commitment to God's people, especially of the Pentecostal communion. Frank Macchia's complementary theological reflections are remarkable for their breadth and incisiveness in reading the church's Scripture and tradition. Theirs is an intellectual achievement for the academy and a magisterial gift to the church."
