Unlock the mysteries of the Book of Revelation like never before. In What Revelation Really Says - Volume 1, renowned biblical scholar Dr. David R. Darnell delves into the first twelve chapters of one of the Bible's most enigmatic and prophetic books. Drawing on decades of expertise in Hebrew and Greek, he reveals meaning hidden in the original languages, offering a fresh, illuminating perspective that will surprise, challenge, and inspire. You'll explore Christ's powerful visions to the seven churches, messages of judgment and hope, intricate symbolism, and a historical and theological context that bridges the world of the early Church with our own. Written for scholars, teachers, students, and seekers alike, this commentary cuts through surface-level interpretations to uncover what Revelation really says-and what it does not. Dr. Darnell's meticulous analysis will deepen your understanding of God's Word, strengthen your faith, and open your eyes to the enduring relevance of Revelation in today's world.
Autorenporträt
The author was raised in Churches of Christ, non-instrumental;he is a graduate of Abilene Christian and Florida Christian Colleges.He preached for Churches of Christ for nine years.He studied Classical Greek and Hebrew at the University ofToronto, seeking to learn everything in the Bible concerninginstrumental music, and concluding that opposition to instrumentalmusic in Christian worship is basically mistaken.Disfellowshipped by Churches of Christ, he graduated from BriteDivinity School at Texas Christian University. He served ChristianChurches, Disciples of Christ while attending Brite, then while earningthe PhD Degree from Duke University, majoring in Biblical Languages,and serving an inter-racial congregation in Fayetteville, North Carolina.He taught at the University of North Carolina, and later at the SouthFlorida Center for Theological Studies in Miami, Florida.Uniquely, his Commentary roots the Book of Revelation in thePentateuch (the Five Books of Moses) and thereby ties the last Book in the NewTestament to the first Books of the Old Testament. He holds that thestatement that Jesus is "coming with the clouds" (Revelation 1:7) isrooted in Yahweh's "coming to Israel in a thick cloud" (Exodus 19:9)Yahweh was with Israel in the cloud by day, and the fiery pillar at night,always guiding, protecting, blessing, disciplining Israel. So Jesus hasalways been and is with His people, the Church-He is with the sevenchurches of Asia in the first century, teaching, encouraging, rebukingthem, and throughout history is always with His people, as He Reignsby the side of Yahweh. This is quite different from the commoninterpretation that His coming with the clouds means His "SecondComing" at the end of time.He also holds that the mission of Israel, as depicted especially inthe Pentateuch, to make Yahweh known to the nations through Israel,is fulfilled in Jesus and the Church, as the close of Revelation picturesthe nations entering the New Jerusalem. This makes the Book ofRevelation the fulfillment of these basic themes (and many others) ofthe Old Testament.It is my deep hope that this kind of scholarship, which isincreasingly being engaged in today by Biblical students, includingnumerous women commentators, will result in a new Biblical Theologythat unites Christians with a new love for the entire Bible, and for oneanother!...in his own words: Dr. David R. Darnell, 07.03.1931 - 03.13.2025
