Temple To Telos: : A Study of the Relationship Between the First Century Jewish Temple and Eschatology

Yet another steller book by Don Preston.I only hope I had known nof the Hebrew festivals sooner in my Christian life. But this volume helps me connect the dots even more

I was anxious to order and read this book, but found it very, very disappointing. This book should be filed in anyone's library, as another example of "Replacement Theology." Paul in Romans 3, shares the following; "1) What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision? 2) Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God." Without thoroughly researching or consulting the Jewish, Hebrew, Temple scholars, to understand fully the Temple Mount vs the Temple structures, he makes unsubstantiated claims, presenting them as facts. Do take note that he is a "preterist", teaching that all the prophecies in the Bible, OT & NT are fulfilled: as of 70 A.D.-Jesus's final return, the resurrection of the dead saints, the return of fish into the Dead Sea, in abundance as in the Mediterranean Sea, Ez. 47:10, the destruction of Satan & the beating of swords into plowshares, so that men would "learn war no more". Isaiah 2:4. Of course by "spiritualizing their fulfillment" he absolves and excuses himself from providing proof that all Biblical prophecies have been fulfilled, required by Matt. 5:18
