When all the elements in a sorted set are inserted with the same score, in order to force lexicographical ordering, this command returns all the elements in the sorted set at `key` with a value between `max` and `min`.

Apart from the reversed ordering, `ZREVRANGEBYLEX` is similar to [`ZRANGEBYLEX`](https://redis.io/docs/latest/commands/zrangebylex).

## Required arguments

<details open><summary><code>key</code></summary>

The name of the key that holds the sorted set.

</details>

<details open><summary><code>max</code></summary>

The maximum member, compared lexicographically. Prefix with `[` for an inclusive bound or `(` for an exclusive bound; use `+` for the highest possible value.

</details>

<details open><summary><code>min</code></summary>

The minimum member, compared lexicographically. Prefix with `[` for an inclusive bound or `(` for an exclusive bound; use `-` for the lowest possible value.

</details>

## Optional arguments

<details open><summary><code>LIMIT offset count</code></summary>

Skip `offset` matching members and return up to `count` of them. A negative `count` returns all remaining members.
