This is a priceless resource of the collection of biblical interpretations over time on eschatological matters concerning Christ. Focusing mainly on Mark 13, George R. Beasley-Murray lays out the conflicting interpretations and arguments of scholars over time. Beasley-Murray lays out the view and follows it by each scholar who supports that view and briefly explains their position. At the end of the book Beasley-Murray adds his own personal commentary on Mark 13 and what he understands about the last days. George R. Beasley-Murray (1916-2000) served as Professor of New Testament Interpretation at Southern Baptist Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky, and was a former Principal of Spurgeon's College, London. He is well known for his highly respected commentary, The Book of Revelation (New Century Commentary Series). |
