The Book of Revelation #6

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we examine the two major divisions of the Book of Revelation, chapters 1-11 and chapters 12-22.  We notice that these two major divisions reflect that surface account of the struggle between the church and the world, (chapters 1-11) and then the behind-the-scenes players or forces that engage in this same conflict (chapters 12-22).  We also are introduced to the ultimate demise of the behind-the-scenes forces.   Further, in this episode, we have a recorded interview between a popular podcaster and a prominent journalist who describes in a very convincing way how those behind-the-scenes players are involved in the world powers and movements in our time.These podcast episodes glean from these primary sources: Beale, G.K., The Book of Revelation, 1998Hendriksen, William, More Than Conquerors, 1979Heiser, Michael, John's Use of the Old Testament in the Book of Revelation, 2021Brooks, Richard, The Lamb is all the Glory, 1993Longman III, Tremper Revelation Through Old Testament Eyes, A Background and Application Commentary, 2022Morris, Leon, The Book of Revelation: An Introduction and Commentary, 1987Koester, Craig, Revelation and the End of all Things, 2018Bauckham, Richard: The Theology of the Book of Revelation, 1993Aune, David, Revelation (in Word Biblical Commentary) 1997Nusca, Anthony Robert, The Christ of the Apocalypse, Contemplating the Faces of Jesus in the Book of Revelation, 2018Of primary note are the introductory chapters on the structure and outline of the book of Revelation in William Hendriksen's great work, More Than Conquerors.  In terms of introductory material on the book of Revelation, his content is priceless and is a living testament to this great scholar's exegetical as well as spiritual accomplishments.  If you wish to contact me with any comments, questions, suggestions, etc please feel free to write to my email:  [email protected]
