Examining the concept of 'Temple' throughout Scripture, HEAVEN ON
EARTH explores one of the most interesting, but least appreciated
themes in biblical theology. Far from being a building used simply
for religious activities, the Temple in biblical literature
embodies a rich variety of theological ideas. At the heart of these
is the interface provided between a holy God and sinful people. An
understanding of the role of the Temple (and its predecessor, the
Tabernacle) in biblical history provides a remarkable insight into
the redemptive purposes of God. From the Garden of Eden in Genesis
to the new creation in Revelation, biblical literature abounds with
references and allusions to the Temple, all of which underline its
significance as an institution and concept. HEAVEN ON EARTH brings
evangelical biblical scholars and theologians together to offer a
fresh approach to this often neglected area. The biblical essays
cover Old Testament, inter-testamental and New Testament material.
