Recovering the Supernatural Worldview of the Bible
Ratings6
Average rating4.3
Dr. Michael Heiser examines the ancient context of Scripture, explaining how its supernatural worldview can help us grow in our understanding of God. He illuminates passages of the Bible that have been hiding in plain sight. You'll find yourself engaged in a pursuit of the truth, resulting in a new appreciation for God's Word. Why wasn't Eve surprised when the serpent spoke to her? How did descendants of the Nephilim survive the flood? Why did Jacob fuse Yahweh and his Angel together in his prayer? Who are the assembly of divine beings that God presides over? In what way do those beings participate in God's decisions? Why do Peter and Jude promote belief in imprisoned spirits? Why does Paul describe evil spirits in terms of geographical rulership? Who are the glorious ones that even angels dare not rebuke? You may never read your Bible the same way again.

This book rocked my theological world. I attended Bible College, studied the Bible for over 50 years, and have a doctorate in ministry, so I have some knowledge and experience in this area.
I say this–not to brag about myself–but to establish my credibility when I tell you Dr. Heiser's research into the Divine Council is original and revolutionary. You won't get this information in any seminary I know of.
