Revelation 1-3 1. Chronological Issues in the Book of Revelation This article defends a particular chronological understanding of the seal, trumpet and bowl judgments, applying the Hebrew literary practice of "Summary-->Detail" in the Old Testament as well as seeking to harmonize various prophesied events within the context of Daniel's "Seven-Year Tribulation" framework. 2. A Critique of the Preterist View of "Soon" and "Near" in Revelation An article from BibSac that argues against a popular Post-Millennial view of Revelation that sees most of the events of Revelation as being in the past. It argues for understanding terms like "soon" and "near" in Revelation as conveying the idea of "imminence" in any historical time rather than being a specific reference to the events surrounding the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70. |
