This volume on Revelation in the Concordia Commentary Series explores the last and perhaps the most perplexing book in the Bible as the church's final witness to the exalted Christ. The author sees Ascension Christology as the heart of the prophetic and visionary message and relates the imagery, events, and liturgical portions of Revelation to the church's life and worship. The Concordia Commentray series will cover all the canonical books of the Old and New Testaments, interpreting Scripture as a harmonious unity centered in the person and work of Jesus Christ. Every passage bears witness to the Good News that God has reconciled the world to Himself through our Lord's life, death, and resurrection. This series fully affirms the divine inspiration, inerrancy, and authority of Scripture as it emphasizes 'that which promotes Christ' in each pericope. |
