In this episode of Help Me Teach the Bible, I talk with Greg Beale, 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 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.
