Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

An outline of the major issues and themes in Bible prophecy—presented in the form of 120 charts

This chart book is designed to be read and understood by any student of the Bible, but its detail and comprehensiveness serves the specialist as well. Unlike books on prophecy that deal with the subject from a particular perspective, this book is evenhanded, presenting different views side by side for reader comparison.

This review is from: Charts of Bible Prophecy (Paperback)

With 119 charts this is an excellent resource for studying or teaching Bible prophecy. There isn't much in terms of explanation but it is still a great resource with some surprises. Some of the charts include a Contrast Between the Abrahamic and Mosaic Covenant, Stages of the Kingdom of God, Biblical Types, Basic Approaches to Eschatology, Harmony of Daniel, Views on the Relationship of Joel, Alternate Determinations of the Seventy Weeks of Daniel, Comparison of Covenant Theology and Dispensationalism, Contrasts between the Rapture Views, Prophetic Significance of Old Testament Offerings, Views on the Millennium, Evaluating Views on Daniel, and even a few charts on the similarities and differences between Muslim, Jewish, and Christian eschatology. With even handed treatment that presents different views in an organized and logical form Charts of Bible Prophecy is a great resource for putting the information into an easy to understand format and teaching eschatology.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lifting The Fog Over The Vast Prophetic Clutter..., August 27, 2006

This review is from: Charts of Bible Prophecy (Paperback)

CHARTS OF BIBLE PROPHECY categorizes, compares, lists, and illustrates, making Bible prophecy more comprehensible and coherent for the beginner, or sharper for the experienced. Some of the book's larger parts are "Part 11: Daniel and Revelation" with 18 charts, "Part 5: Systems of Eschatology with 13, and "Part 7: The Nation of Israel" with 11.

SIMPLE CHART EXAMPLE: # 76-"Old Testament Tributlation Terms and Expressions," where the chart consists only of 2 columns, the right listing the verse references and the left the corresponding tribulation terms--"birth pangs," "Day of the Lord," "day of vengeance," "day of Jacob's trouble" etc.

COMPLEX CHART EXAMPLE: # 52- "Views on the Rapture," which is divided into 5 subcharts that each represent a view (pre-trib, partial, pre-wrath, midtrib, and post-trib), with each followed by "Statement of View," "Proponents," then 2 columns of arguments for and against. (How clarifying is this format!)

My personal chart favorites are #10-"Contrasts between the Abrahamic and Mosaic Covenants" and #24- "Unfulfilled Prophecy." Some charts incorporate extrabiblical sources, such as #79-"Identity of the Antichrist through the Centuries." Also, though both authors are pre-trib dispensationalists, the book's inclusive in representing different systems of interpretation in the charts.

This review is from: Charts of Bible Prophecy (Paperback)

I am studying Revelation for a Bible study that I hope to lead starting in September, 2011. I have many books, and even a couple of cd's that allow me to print out certain charts, but nothing I have compares to this book for content. Since the women in my group have different views regarding the interpretation of Revelation, this book covers those views in a way which should help each person compare Scripture with Scripture. With this book, I won't have to keep searching and bookmarking other books to find the cross references or charts that I need. I love the nicely spaced print on large pages that makes it easy on my eyes. My thanks go out to H. Wayne House and Randall Price for the time and effort to compile this book.
