I really enjoyed finding out more about the book of Revelation.
-
A great concise summary of Revelation which can serve as a handy tool while studying Revelation in greater depth.
-
I applaud Dr. Blomberg for daring to give a survey of such a difficult book as Revelation. He does not evade discussing some difficult issues and symbols, unlike an earlier survey I learned from a different author. And although he states his preferred interpretation, he does mention the other interpretations too, so that you can discern for yourself. (In this respect, I must defend Dr. Blomberg against some reviewers of ODBU who say he never tackles issues nor presents alternative views. Those students must have confused the review with another course which I also attended, or they must have not paid attention to details in this course, and yet taken it on themselves to pen a review.) I learned a lot about how I can interpret the 666, Babylon the Great, the duration of the Tribulation, the time of the Rapture, and the interlayering of the 7 seals, 7 trumpets and 7 bowls, etc. A course to be highly recommended.
-
Excellent!!!
-
Thank you for the course. My experience with it was that it was a basic course, providing an overview of Revelation, rather than intermediate. I was also disappointed by some of the interpretations that construe everything in Revelation as symbolic. Yes, some of the visions and objects are symbolic. But much of it should be taken literally too. Thank you.
-
I THOUGHT THAT SOME OF THE TEXT TAKEN SYMBOLICALLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN LITERALLY.
-
It's an eye opener. Revelation made simple.
-
Dr. De Hann is rolling over in his grave. Very disappointed with some of the interpretations. Very surprised also. Also, the reader needs to learn how to correctly pronounce ALL words that he is reading. (implacable, hegemony, etc.)
-
Loved the course. I appreciated the comments that others may have differing perspectives on what is written in Revelation (rather than communicating “this is the correct interpretation”).

I enjoyed course! While I am glad that it was fast, for the sake of all I have to get done, it would have been nice for this course to last longer! Good teacher! I’m not sure why the first reading was from a 3 John commentary though.

A VERY STIMULATING COURSE, AND ALSO A VERY USEFUL REMINDER NOT TO BE DOGMATIC IN ONE'S OWN INTERPRETATION OF THE EVENTS DESCRIBED, PARTICULARLY WITH REFERENCE TO THE TRIBULATION AND THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST. EXCELLENT LECTURES.
