Review Quotes: Calvin Theological Journal
"A refreshing analysis of a mysterious book."

Review of Biblical Literature
"David deSilva's Discovering Revelation is a thorough and careful examination of John's Apocalypse that firmly situates readers in the historical context of the assemblies of Asia Minor. It orients students toward an academic perspective while still connecting John's message to their present situations. A sensitivity to the nebulous character of Revelation as simultaneously prophecy, letter, and apocalypse draws the reader into an appreciation for its complexity while challenging popular interpretations that diminish John's imagery as simply ciphers to be decoded."

Interpretation
"[T]his is an excellent work and should be read by anyone who wants a solid introduction to Revelation."

Review of Biblical Literature
"This book represents a brilliant introduction to Revelation by a senior scholar in the field."
