Daniel

To say that Daniel is a difficult book would be an understatement. We can easily be seduced by seemingly intelligent but actually misguided interpretations of Daniel’s esoteric visions. Or we can be tempted to just give up trying to understand them. There is a better way. In this informed and readable book, Colin Chapman guides us towards making good sense of the Book of Daniel. Far from being impenetrable or irrelevant, Chapman shows us how to hear its important message for the people of God today.

Christian Zionism and the Restoration of Israel

How should Christians today understand the many promises and prophecies in the Old Testament about the future of Israel and its land? Are Christian Zionists justified in believing that these have been fulfilled in the return of Jews to their land since the 1880s and the creation of the State of Israel in 1948? This book discusses all the key texts about the restoration of Israel that are quoted in these debates, questioning the Christian Zionist interpretation and offering an alternative. This is followed by a detailed study of two important Old Testament texts dealing with the future of Israel, Ezekiel 33-47 and Zechariah 9-13, understanding them in their original context and exploring how they are interpreted in the New Testament. This is no theoretical, ivory-tower debate. We are dealing here with the most bitter and protracted conflict of the last 150 years; and the way we interpret the Bible has profound political consequences.
