De: Michael S. Heiser

Narrado por: Tim H. Dixon

New edition of a bestseller (over 175k copies sold) that features more content from Michael S. Heiser

If it’s weird, it’s important.

To celebrate its tenth anniversary, The Unseen Realm Expanded Edition features new content from Heiser never before available in print, further unveiling the unseen realm.

Talking snakes. Giants. A heavenly council. Imprisoned spirits. Your Bible is filled with strange things, but what do they mean and why do they matter? In The Unseen Realm, Michael Heiser unveils the supernatural worldview of the Bible. Heiser shows how understanding the Bible’s ancient context reveals surprises hiding in plain sight. By reading the Bible with the mindset of an ancient Israelite, you will learn new things about God, yourself, and the world. You may never read your Bible the same way again.

• Why wasn't Eve surprised when the serpent spoke to her?
• How did descendants of the Nephilim survive the flood?
• Who are the assembly of divine beings that God presides over?
• Why do Peter and Jude write about imprisoned spirits?
• Why does Paul describe evil spirits in terms of geographical rule?
• Who are the "glorious ones" that even angels dare not rebuke?

“How was it possible that I had never seen that before? Dr. Heiser’s survey of the complex reality of the supernatural world as the Scriptures portray it covers a subject that is strangely sidestepped.”

―John Goldingay, David Allan Hubbard Professor of Old Testament, School of Theology, Fuller Theological Seminary

“There is a world referred to in the Scripture that is quite unseen, but also quite present and active. The Unseen Realm seeks to unmask this world.”

―Darrell L. Bock, Executive Director of Cultural Engagement and Senior Research Professor of New Testament Studies, Dallas Theological Seminary

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Reread your Bible

Why are we never taught this at church!?!? Reading from the ancient Israelite and first century Jewish perspective is critical in understanding Unseen Realm. It is fantastic, Heiser has an excellent grip on this topic and explains it well.

A Road To Emmaus Experience

Reading this book was like meeting Jesus on the side of the road to Emmaus and having Him explain how the entire Torah, poetry and prophets point to His death, burial and resurrection. And to His ultimate glory.

The in depth contextual objective description of the scriptures was profound.

Didn't mention the Paleo Hebrew and the changing into the modern Hebrew and why that matters regarding pronunciation.

the scholarly perspective

I appreciate the scholarly perspective and all the references that he referred to. this followed the book exactly cuz I listen to the audio portion of it as I was reading. I would recommend that everyone who listens to it have the book there as well. otherwise outstanding

A great Biblical Read

A book that every self proclaiming Christian should read. This book along with other Dr. Heiser books opens up the Bible to been seen as it was meant to be seen!

Needs to be organized like the original audiobook.

This edition is not divided like the original audiobook. Instead of each section having its own track, each chapter is it's own track. In addition the sequence is correct, but the Chapter names are misaligned. e.g. the introduction is title chapter 1, and chapter 1 is titled chapter 2 etc etc.
