NSBT 17: The Temple and the Church's Mission
Biblical Theology of the Dwelling Place of God.'Then I saw a
new heaven and a new earth. [...] And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem. [...]
And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, ÈBehold, the dwelling place of
God is with man.' (Revelation 21:1-3, ESV).
In this comprehensive study,
G.K. Beale argues that the Old Testament tabernacle and temples were
symbolically designed to point to the end-time reality that God's presence,
formerly limited to the Holy of Holies, would be extended throughout the
cosmos. Hence, John's vision in Revelation 21 is best understood as picturing
the new heavens and earth as the eschatological temple.
Beale's
stimulating exposition traces the theme of the tabernacle and temple across the
Bible's story-line, illuminating many texts and closely-related themes along
the way. He shows how the significance and symbolism of the temple can be
better understood in the context of ancient Near Eastern assumptions, and
offers new insights into the meaning of the temple in both Old and New
Testaments.'The importance of this book lies not only in the
competent handling of its chosen theme, but also in its evocative unpacking of
the theme of the temple [...] its modelling of the way biblical theology is to
be done; and its capacity to cause readers to perceive fresh and wonderful
things in the Scriptures.' - D.A. CarsonSeries: New Studies in
