Hace mas de cincuenta anos que el texto que publicara la escritora Sunshine Ball se usa como un libro de lectura devocional, de estudio en grupos de creyentes en la iglesia y como texto en los Institutos Biblicos. Esta es una revision que, al contar con bosquejos, tablas y graficos, hace facil el estudio apocaliptico. Si quiere una perspectiva escatologica de actualidad, no deje de leer y usar esta herramienta que nunca pasara de moda, sino hasta que el Senor venga. 'Guarda estas cosas en secreto y sella el libro hasta la hora final, pues muchos andaran de un lado a otro en busca de cualquier conocimiento.' Daniel 12:4 'Dichoso el que lee y dichosos los que escuchan las palabras de este mensaje profetico y hacen caso de lo que aqui esta escrito, porque el tiempo de su cumplimiento esta cerca.' Apocalipsis 1:3"

Jesus told a story about a young son, his older brother and their loving father. It's a great story that teaches us about God and about how patient he is. Jesus told stories, great stories, that tell us about who God is and what he is like. In the Stories From Jesus series the parables are retold and explained for young children.

These study guides, part of a set from noted Bible scholar John MacArthur, take readers on a journey through biblical texts to discover what lies beneath the surface, focusing on meaning and context, and then reflecting on the explored passage or concept. With probing questions that guide the reader toward application, as well as ample space for journaling, The MacArthur Bible Studies are invaluable tools for Bible students of all ages. Much debate surrounds the book of Revelation on such volatile topics as: The Rapture, The Millennial Kingdom, The Anti-Christ. Respected preacher and Bible teacher John MacArthur pulls back the veil on the book of Revelation and reveals more of what God's Word has to say to us about the future of His Kingdom.

In the final nine chapters of the Gospel of Mark, Jesus increasingly struggles with his disciples' incomprehension of his unique concept of suffering messiahship and with the opposition of the religious leaders of his day. The Gospel recounts the events that led to Jesus' arrest, trial, and crucifixion by the Roman authorities, concluding with an enigmatic ending in which Jesus' resurrection is announced but not displayed. In this volume New Testament scholar Joel Marcus offers a new translation of Mark 8-16 as well as extensive commentary and notes. He situates the narrative within the context of first-century Palestine and the larger Greco-Roman world; within the political context of the Jewish revolt against the Romans (66-73 C.E.); and within the religious context of the early church's sometimes rancorous engagement with Judaism, pagan religion, and its own internal problems. For religious scholars, pastors, and interested lay people alike, the book provides an accessible and enlightening window on the second of the canonical Gospels.

This Synoptikon brings together the Synoptic Gospels, freshly translated, comparing them with materials selected from previous volumes in this series. The aim is to serve commentators who engage the Gospels critically and with the awareness that a consideration of their Judaic environments is crucial. Placing the texts within that setting evokes particular streams of tradition that interacted so as to produce the Gospels. These are set out in distinctive typefaces, so that readers may assess the depth of the Synoptic tradition as well as the breadth of its development.
