Recommend some resources for Revelations paper

Hi all, would appreciate if anyone can recommend some good books on Revelations and eschatology. So far my search on PB gave me A Case for Amillennialism by Kim Riddlebarger and Post-Mill: An Eschatology of Hope by Keith Mathiason.

I'm looking for comprehensive and thoroughly reformed books. Anyone knows of any "good" dipsy books where I can get a feel of the other side would be great.

The commentaries of John Gill and Albert Barnes are helpful.

Thanks for the bibliography. 110 pages made my eyes

I'm going down to the bookstore later this afternoon to pick up some books. Anyone else?

Anything by Kenneth Gentry is good (though some would disagree).

As far as good writing from a dispensational perspective, why not just read your local newspaper?

Understanding Dispensationalism by Vern S. Poythress. I read it last year, but discovered only recently that it is also available online . Click this website, and go to the bottom of the page. You will greatly benefit from the historical facts, and his discussion of presuppositions.

Dispy books by John Walvoord,
Charles_Ryrie Charles_Ryrie
, and
Dwight_Pentecost Dwight_Pentecost
will give you a feel of the other side. The Scofield Reference Bible is also a classic dispensationalist work.

I have read Matthew Poole's commentary on Revelation, I find it very helpful. Also David Steele's commentary is very useful and clear.
