The second Revelation volume treats the war behind history, the beast and the false prophet, the mark and the final bowls of wrath, the fall of Babylon, the return of Christ in glory, the thousand-year reign, the great white throne, and the new heaven and new earth where God dwells with His people. The exposition keeps the prophetic sequence in view while drawing out the worship and the warning the visions are meant to produce.

Each volume in the MacArthur New Testament Commentary works verse by verse through the Greek text, explains the passage in its context, and presents its theology with precision, in the service of expository preaching rather than academic debate. The series is written for pastors preparing sermons, teachers preparing lessons, and any believer willing to study carefully, and it is the fruit of more than five decades of pulpit ministry at Grace Community Church.
