Biblical Eschatology provides what is not found in any other single volume on eschatology: it analyzes all the major eschatological passages (including the Olivet Discourse and the book of Revelation), issues (including the second coming of Christ, the millennium, the rapture, and Antichrist), and positions (including all the major views of the millennium) in a clear, but not superficial, way. The book concludes with a chapter showing how eschatology is relevant for our lives. Biblical Eschatology makes understanding eschatology easier by including chapters on how to interpret prophecy and apocalyptic literature, by showing the history of eschatological thought, and by placing eschatology in the context of the Bible's overall story line and structure. Clarity and understanding are enhanced by the use of comparative tables and appendices. Subject and Scripture indexes are included. The book interacts with the best of Evangelical and Reformed scholarship, and the extensive bibliography (which includes the Web addresses of many resources that are online) provides an excellent source for the reader's further study. This is a perfect resource for intelligent Christians, including pastors, students, and teachers, who desire to understand eschatology and to see how it fits together with the rest of the Bible.

Eschatology is related to Christology because Christ is the end and goal of everything. Menn holds to Amillennial eschatology, and he points us to Christ. Some parts are dense, yet Menn writes clearly. Overall I have a clearer view of the Bible�s overall structure. Few will agree with everything. Still this is a book for Bible students, teachers, and pastors. Menn�s book will challenge and strengthen your end-time positions. We are to understand what God�s word has to say about our world today, what it says about God�s dealing with the world and his people today, and what his word has about Christ. When we understand what God is doing, then we understand what we are to be doing.
