Prophecy Interpreted

Do we live in the "last times," as many religious movements now declare? Are there "signs" in history which provide clues for seeing into the future? Were the Old Testament writers given insights far beyond their own peculiar times? And how about the Jews return to their own land after two thousand years of dispersion? These and other timely questions are given serious attention in this book. Professor Milton draws on his extensive knowledge and close contact with the Scriptures in his discussion of the prophets, their understandings of their world and their God, the significance of their prophecy for the early people of God, and the impact and relevance of those prophecies for God's people today.
