The Unseen Realm

By: Dr. Michael S. Heiser

Narrated by: Gordon Greenhill

In The Unseen Realm, Dr. Michael Heiser examines the ancient context of scripture, explaining how its supernatural worldview can help us grow in our understanding of God. He illuminates intriguing and amazing passages of the Bible that have been hiding in plain sight. You'll find yourself engaged in an enthusiastic pursuit of the truth, resulting in a new appreciation for God's word.

• Why wasn't Eve surprised when the serpent spoke to her?
• How did descendants of the Nephilim survive the flood?
• Why did Jacob fuse Yahweh and his angel together in his prayer?
• Who are the assembly of divine beings that God presides over?
• In what way do those beings participate in God's decisions?
• Why do Peter and Jude promote belief in imprisoned spirits?
• Why does Paul describe evil spirits in terms of geographical rulership?
• Who are the glorious ones that even angels dare not rebuke?

After listening to this book, you may never read your Bible the same way again.

There is a world referred to in the scripture that is quite unseen, but also quite present and active. Michael Heiser's The Unseen Realm seeks to unmask this world. Heiser shows how important it is to understand this world and appreciate how its contribution helps to make sense of scripture. The book is clear and well done, treating many ideas and themes that often go unseen themselves. With this book, such themes will no longer be neglected, so listen to it and discover a new realm for reflection about what scripture teaches.

intrigued

I'm just a regular person I was introduced to Supernatural finished it and immediately started on this one, although it was a more technical read it was very enlightening and intriguing. I intend to reread the Bible with a new pair of lens.

Read and Reread!

I love this book-- it is a major paradigm shift in my thinking, and some of the author's presentations are too much to take in in the first read. But it is well worth the effort to go back and reread concepts (and even entire chapters) to solidify the images he so colorfully exhibits. It is hard for me to believe that Mr. Heiser does not have a volume of works published-- he is gifted with words and has a knack for understated humor.

Probably the most scriptural I've ever heard/read!

This book has completely opened up a narrative that's been in the Bible the whole time but I just never saw in its fullness not ever heard before.

It's demystified so many unclear passages with sound biblical exegesis.

I'll be listening to it/reading it over andcover for years to come.

Love it!

WOW! I've already listened to it 5 times!

Starting my 6th re-listen now... it's that good!

A big thank you to the author... you are changing my life and I pray eternal rewards on you for using your gifts to build His body.

Great amount of research and insight

What did you love best about The Unseen Realm?

The amount of research and passion the author has put into this book.

What did you like best about this story?

The introduction of the concept of co-creation with God.

What aspect of Gordon Greenhill’s performance would you have changed?

The continual mention of "note" and "end note" in the delivery was beyond annoying. It's the only reason this book was not rated higher. I would imagine for copyright reasons this had to be done.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Not possible, it's too long.
