2014 Word Guild Award (Biblical Studies) Named a 2014 Jesus Creed
Book of the Year (Theology) Best Theology Book of 2014, Englewood
Review of Books Best Book of Biblical Studies for 2014, Hearts
& Minds Books In recent years, more and more Christians have
come to appreciate the Bible's teaching that the ultimate blessed
hope for the believer is not an otherworldly heaven; instead, it is
full-bodied participation in a new heaven and a new earth brought
into fullness through the coming of God's kingdom. Drawing on the
full sweep of the biblical narrative, J. Richard Middleton unpacks
key Old Testament and New Testament texts to make a case for the
new earth as the appropriate Christian hope. He suggests its
ethical and ecclesial implications, exploring the difference a
holistic eschatology can make for living in a broken world.
