Revelation Commentary: Which would you choose?

If you are asking for a volume on Ephesians that is substantive yet not too technical, O'Brien is not actually where I would go. It is an outstanding volume, plagiarism issues notwithstanding (nothing normal will induce me to part with my copy!). Sinclair Ferguson and Richard Phillips are the ones I would go to for the level you are looking for. There is also Uprichard's volume in the study commentary series, which I found solid.

As much as I love Phillips and Ferguson, I would only use them as a side dish to the main course. That is no fault to them as they are intentionally expository. One should still consult a solid, even if not technical, exegetical commentary.
 
The Revelation of St. John by Leon Morris, a reformed Anglican, has been especially helpful to me.
Revelation by Wayne Mueller, a Wisconsin Synod Lutheran, is a good nontechnical treatment
The Book of the Revelation by Philip Edgcumbe Hughes, a reformed Anglican, is a wonderful commentary that makes clear the numerous passages in Revelation that are comprehensible.
Behold He Cometh by Herman Hoeksema, a Protestant Reformed Churchman, is like Hendrickson, a good expository treatment.
 
The Book of Revelation, William Milligan. "Optimistic" amillennialist. Very approachable. Available on Google Books. 392 pages.
 
Thank you, brothers! This will be a good reference for me in the future and for others who might be/are looking for commentaries on Revelation.
