This sounds a bit like the Hort commentary on Revelation or the Swete
commentary on Revelation. Are they similar in format?

What other commentaries give good, detailed analysis of the Greek text? I
have tended to have a bit of an inductive bias, and until fairly recently, I
have generally avoided using commentaries because I wanted to wrestle with
the text myself first, and I've rarely found the time to do the next step.

I am now using Swete's commentary along with a few others for the Sunday
School class I'm teaching on the Revelation. None of the others give as much
detail on the Greek text as Swete. What other commentaries should I be
looking at for the Revelation?
