Overview

Charts on the Book of Revelation is the first of its kind—a charts book that does not seek to support specific interpretations of end-times prophecies. Instead, it depicts the literary, historical, and theological backgrounds of Revelation, arguably the New Testament’s most challenging book. With 79 charts, timelines, and maps (developed especially for this volume), this unique guide promises to help all Bible readers, especially students, teachers, and preachers, regardless of their theological background. All charts are reproducible for classroom use.

Key Features

• Discusses the setting in which Revelation was given with easy-to-use charts
• A clear presentation of historical detail from an expert in the field
• Connects modern readers to the original setting
