The book carefully shows the Jewishness of the Revelation text and how it is directed to the Jews living in last-days' Israel.

Autorenporträt

I was born in 1944 and raised in Bloomington, IL. My grade school years were at the Trinity Lutheran School and then Bloomington High School until my graduation in 1962. I attended the University of Florida from 1963-1968 where I received a B.A. in political science. From there, I went on to Law School at U of F and graduated in 1971. Since graduation, I have been practicing law in Bloomington, IL to the present. In 1985, I began to hear about the "Rapture" fervor sweeping throughout various evangelical circles. I became fascinated with the prophetic study and began to research the subject of the "end-times" in the writings of the first century church fathers to the present day. That investigation propelled me to return to college to learn Greek so that I could further my studies in the Greek New Testament and Septuagint concerning the last-days' prophesies and the "Day of the Lord." After several years of study, the idea for the original book, Return to Me, My Love, began to emerge and was finally published in 2010, a twenty-five-year odyssey! After the publication of Return to Me, My Love in 2010, I decided to expand the book, adding numerous end-notes and revisions to the original text, including a detailed Index. These revisions yielded the book you now have, which has been retitled: The Jewish Messiah and The Second Coming. The subtitle: Exploring the Jewish Roots in the Revelation, as Seen Through the Eyes of St. John, the Revelator, expands on the overall theme and purpose for the revised book. And, while this Revised Edition was expanded to aid the reader to gain a better understanding of end-times prophecy, the basic premise of both books has remained the same: all last-days prophecy goes in only one direction-through the Jews in the Land of Israel and ends with Messiah's return to Mount of Olives east of Jerusalem to save the remnant of His people from the deceptions and destruction that the satanically filled "Man of Sin" (antichrist) will bring upon them during the time of "Jacob's trouble." The Jewish Messiah and The Second Coming examines all of the Old Testament prophecies concerning the events surrounding time-of-the-end and juxtaposes them against the New Testament prophecies, which were revealed to the Lord's Apostles in order to shed additional light on and explain what will take place in Land of Israel just prior to Messiah's return in glory. Consequently, once all of those last-days prophecies are placed side-by-side and next to the Revelation text, a clear and consistent picture emerges concerning the "Day of the Lord," a subject upon which all of the prophets spoke. To confirm and put all of those prophecies into an understandable context, Jesus personally came to John on the Isle of Patmos to show him each of the Old Testament prophecies that He would bring to fulfillment just before His triumphant return to the Land of Israel. And, because so many of those Old Testament prophecies had been cloaked in mystery prior to Jesus' first coming, Jesus unveiled them to John (hence the title: the Revelation or revealing) by showing him the precise order in which each of them would take place. He did this to ensure that His Jewish people, who would be living in the Land of Israel at the time-of-the-end, could know with absolute certainty both the order and magnitude of the events that will overtake them as last days approach.
