Horæ Apocalypticæ: A Commentary on the Apocalypse, Critical and Historical (4 vols.)
Overview
The book of Revelation is arguably the most mysterious and controversial book of the Bible, and Horæ Apocalypticæ seeks to clear the confusion associated with this book and interpret it in context. First published in 1844, it took E. B. Elliott seven years to complete the first edition. Considered an immediate scholarly standard, Horæ Apocalypticæ: A Commentary on the Apocalypse, Critical and Historical focuses on the critical historical context of both the time and the writing itself, as well as the supernatural inspiration of the text.
Defending Revelation from a purely rationalist view common at the time, Elliott believed that a combination of broad historical context and specific spiritual considerations were essential to reading not just Revelation, but all of Scripture. Boasting over 2,500 pages for all four volumes, Elliott provides a systematic view of the Apocalypse. He examines various symbols and prophecies, points out parallels between Revelation and historical events and people, and finally offers a concluding application. Elliott also includes an appendix and a list of plates.

I like reading the older works. They give more details than you find in many works today. And often more trustworthy.
