Description

Is there a book of the Bible more often discussed and yet less understood than the Book of Revelation?

The "seven seals." The "dragon." The "beast." The "sea of glass." The fantastic imagery found in the Book of Revelation has long captivated Christians but remains mysterious to many. In the midst of so much discussion about the end times, what does Revelation teach us about living in the present moment, with our eyes focused on the heavenly Jerusalem?

Michael Barber's latest book, Coming Soon, explores these questions by taking a detailed look at Revelation and its rich tapestry of prophecy, history, and biblical allusion.

Barber explores the profound link between the Mass celebrated here on earth and the eternal reality of heaven, demonstrating that the Apocalypse reveals truth that has practical implications for today and points to a firm hope in tomorrow.

Coming Soon is a verse-by-verse commentary on the Book of Revelation using the Revised Standard Version: Catholic Edition of the Bible. Barber provides a Catholic interpretation, which sees the liturgical background of this book of Scripture—a perspective missing in many Protestant commentaries.

    Coming Soon by Michael Barber

    I have bought several copies of this book, one for myself, of course (!) and several for friends who I thought would relish it as much as I did. It is sooooooo well researched, and seeing the correlations between the old and the New Testament gave me goose bumps at times. I will read it again and again. For me, it was the best explanation of Revelation that I have encountered.
