In this episode of Help Me Teach the Bible, Nancy talked with Greg Beale, who was at the time professor of New Testament and biblical theology at Westminster Theological Seminary, about the book of Revelation—the book of the Bible surveys say people most want to be taught to them and teachers least want to teach. We work our way through key statements from Beale’s Revelation: A Shorter Commentary to cover questions on:

• symbolism;
• recapitulation;
• the nature of the renewal of all things; and
• central pastoral and theological themes in Revelation.

Books by Greg Beale:

• A New Testament Biblical Theology: The Unfolding of the Old Testament in the New
• Book of Revelation (New International Greek Text Commentary)
• Revelation: A Shorter Commentary
• God Dwells Among Us: Expanding Eden to the Ends of the Earth
