Mystical Reflections on Sacred Scripture is a set of reflections on the Old Testament according to the four senses of Sacred Scripture (the Quadriga). This publication explores these four senses in order to demonstrate how the Old and New Testaments are beautifully intertwined, to increase love for Christ by finding Him in the Old Testament and to revive an appreciation for the various senses of Sacred Scripture. - From the introduction. "Michael Lofton has undertaken an ambitious work, fueled by the noblest desires. He wants to receive and understand the Holy Scriptures as they were received and understood by the early Christians. He wants to read the texts in the spirit in which they were written and preached. Thus he has taken up the Church's most ancient methods of reading the Bible. Now he wants us all to share the excitement of his discovery. He gives us his book not as a final word, but in order to lead us to a fresh beginning." - Mike Aquilina, author, The Fathers of the Church; The Mass of the Early Christians "Michael Lofton has given us a fine set of reflections on selected Scriptures that make use of the Church's tradition of the Four Senses of Scripture. Use it to come deeper into the heart of the word of God." - Mark P. Shea, author, Making Senses Out of Scripture: Reading the Bible as the First Christians Did

Many Christians think of end times prophecy as a gigantic, intimidating puzzle -- difficult to piece together and impossible to figure out. But every puzzle can be solved if you approach it the right way. Paul Benware compares prophecy to a picture puzzle. Putting the edge pieces together first builds the 'framework' that makes it easier to fit the other pieces in their place. According to Benware, the framework for eschatology is the biblical covenants. He begins his comprehensive survey by explaining the major covenants. Then he discusses several different interpretations of end times prophecy. Benware digs into the details of the Rapture, the Great Tribulation, the judgements and resurrections, and the millennial kingdom. But he also adds a unique, personal element to the study, answering questions as: -Why study bible prophecy? -What difference does it make if I'm premillenial or amillenial? If what the Bible says about the future puzzles you, Understanding End Times Prophecy will help you put together the pieces and see the big picture.

New in the Eerdmans Classic Biblical Commentaries collection In this now-classic exposition of Revelation, first published in 1972, George Eldon Ladd offers a clear, engaging, and insightful reading of the Apocalypse that is ideal for the pulpit, classroom, or personal study. In a brief introduction Ladd discusses the subject of authorship, the date and historical setting of Revelation, and the various methods of interpretation (preterist, historical, idealist, and futurist) that have been applied to the book throughout history. He then offers an analytical outline of Revelation’s structure and his verse-by-verse commentary, which reflects a historic premillennial perspective. The entire work is marked by Ladd’s sensitivity to the needs of both scholars and general readers and by his concern for proclaiming the message of Revelation for our time.
