A careful historical and exegetical study of the Beast of Revelation as found in the Book of Revelation. It identifies the Beast as the Roman emperor Nero Caesar, the first persecutor of the Christian church in AD 64. The book also delves into the question of the date of the writing of Revelation, arguing that it was written by John the Apostle around AD 65 or 66.
A technical study on issues arising in the interpretation of the Book of Revelation. This book takes the position that Revelation was a prophecy regarding the approaching destruction of the Jewish temple in AD 70. The studies within demonstrate the significance of AD 70 in redemptive-history as the old covenant closes and the new covenant opens. It argues that John is taking upon himself the prophetic mantle and is following the pattern of the Old Testament prophets who rebuke Israel for unfaithfulness to God.
The author of the Left Behind(series, teams up with a noted prophecy expert to provide guidelines for interpreting Bible prophecy in a consistently accurate manner, equipping readers with a concise understanding of what the Bible says about the future.
This doctoral dissertation demonstrates that Revelation was written prior to the destruction of the Jewish Temple in AD 70, and that it was prophesying that event. It proves this early date for Revelation by providing both internal evidence from within Revelation and external evidence from Church history and tradition.
This important study: Presents strong exegetical arguments for the six-day creation approach to Genesis Illustrates the traditional interpretation of Genesis, a survey of exegetical arguments, and responses to alleged problems Demonstrates the flaws in the framework argument.

This work analyzes charismatic claims to continuing prophetic revelation today. It does so by considering key charismatic texts in the New Testament. It shows by careful analysis of charismatic arguments that the gift of prophecy in the Apostolic church involved inspired revelation and that the gift ceased with the closing of the canon. It provides a special analysis of and rebuttal to the major arguments in Wayne Grudem's important work, "The Gift of Prophecy in the New Testament and Today."
In-depth exegetical studies of five key biblical prophecy passages: Daniel's Seventy Weeks (Dan 9: 24-27); Jesus' Olivet Discourse (Matt 24:1-36); Paul's Man of Sin (2 Thess. 2:1-10); Revelation's the Beast (Rev. 13); and Revelation's Babylonian Harlot (Rev. 17). In these studies the author shows that each of these prophecies were fulfilled in the first century and were closely linked to the destruction of the Jewish temple in AD 70. The presentations are thoroughly evangelical and rigorously biblical.
Of all the books of the Bible, few are as fascinating or as intimidating as Revelation. Four grim horsemen, the Antichrist, the ten-horned beast, the ultimate battle at Armageddon, the "mark of the beast." It's no wonder that these images have griped the imagination of so many--and have been variously interpreted as symbolizing everything from Hitler and Gorbachev to credit cards and the Internet. Is the book of Revelation a blueprint for the future? A book of powerful symbolic imagery with warnings for the church? Is it essentially an imaginative depiction of historical events in the first century? Four Views on the Book of Revelation explores four interpretations of the book of the Apocaly...
