Summary:

The Lion is a Lamb: An Exegetical and Theological Exposition of the Book of Revelation, by Paige Patterson presents a unique look at one of the most controversial and misunderstood books of the Bible. Over against the plethora of commentaries available this work is not simply a devotional commentary, it is not simply a preaching commentary, nor is it written with only the scholar in mind. Rather, it bridges the chasms between the professional scholar, the pastor/preacher, and the pew. No matter where you are in your study of God’s Word, from beginner to accomplished scholar, this commentary will prove a blessing to you. Dr. Patterson handles the text with the expertise of a scholar who knows the subject from every angle. The commentary interacts with all the various historical, theological, and hermeneutical perspectives. Yet, the author faithfully and consistently follows a grammatical-historical interpretation of the text without compromise. He provides special insights for pastors and the people in the pew that not only inform, but inspire, encourage, and bring comfort to the believer walking through the ups and downs of this life. The professional scholar, the pastor/preacher, and the person in the pew will be blessed as they open their Bibles, read the Revelation, and read The Lion is a Lamb.​​​
