1. 1. A Companion To The Book Of Enoch

   A Reader's Commentary

   

   An accessible reader’s commentary that walks through 1 Enoch, clarifying its narrative of the Watchers, cosmic rebellion, judgment, and the heavenly realm within the context of Second Temple Judaism. It addresses linguistic and textual issues from the Ethiopic tradition and Dead Sea Scrolls, connects key passages to the Hebrew Bible (including Genesis 6), and traces the work’s influence on early Jewish and Christian thought. Aimed at both interested readers and students, it distills current scholarship to illuminate themes like messianism, cosmic geography, and eschatology.

2. 2. The Unseen Realm

   Recovering the Supernatural Worldview of the Bible

   

   A readable biblical theology proposing that Scripture assumes a real “divine council” of spiritual beings, and that difficult passages cohere when interpreted within the ancient Near Eastern worldview. It traces the story through Eden, the sons of God and the Nephilim, and Babel to the New Testament, highlighting cosmic geography and territorial powers, and argues that the Messiah’s work and the church’s mission reclaim the nations from hostile beings. Drawing on Hebrew, Ugaritic, and Second Temple literature, it reframes texts like Deuteronomy 32 and Psalm 82 to clarify references to gods, angels, demons, and principalities. The result is an integrated picture of spiritual conflict woven through the entire biblical narrative.

3. 3. The Divine Council In Late Canonical And Non Canonical Second Temple Jewish Literature

   

   A focused scholarly study tracing the motif of a heavenly assembly of divine beings across late-canonical and noncanonical Second Temple Jewish texts, arguing that many Jewish writings preserved an ancient Near Eastern image of a supreme deity presiding over a council of subordinate gods or angels. It surveys evidence from biblical books, apocrypha, pseudepigrapha and Dead Sea Scrolls, uses linguistic and comparative methods to show how this council concept shaped theological developments and reinterpretations of divine hierarchy, and considers its implications for understanding the transition from ancient polytheistic frameworks to later monotheistic theology.

4. 4. Does Divine Plurality In The Hebrew Bible Demonstrate An Evolution From Polytheism To Monotheism In Israelite Religion?

   

   The book argues that biblical references to divine plurality—such as the use of elohim, the plural pronouns in creation, and scenes of a heavenly council—do not simply show raw polytheism but reflect an Israelite worldview in which a supreme deity presided over other divine beings; through linguistic, textual, and comparative Near Eastern analysis it contends that Israelite religion moved from henotheism/monolatry toward exclusive monotheism over time, with the Hebrew Bible preserving earlier strata that testify to a more complex divine plurality even as later theology affirms Yahweh’s unique sovereignty.
5. 5. Are Yahweh And El Separate Deities In Psalm 82 And Deuteronomy 32?

   

   The book argues that Psalm 82 and Deuteronomy 32 preserve traces of an older divine-council tradition in which Yahweh and El appear as distinct divine figures. Drawing on close readings of the Hebrew, comparative ancient Near Eastern evidence, and textual-history analysis, it contends these passages reflect remnants of Israel’s polytheistic background and a theological development toward monotheism in which the names El and Yahweh sometimes overlap and sometimes perform different roles. The study examines linguistic, literary, and historical data to show how early Israelite religion negotiated divine plurality and reinterpreted those traditions within evolving theological commitments.

6. 6. The Divine Council In The Pentateuch

   

   This study argues that the Pentateuch preserves a coherent theology of a divine council — a heavenly assembly of subordinate spiritual beings over which Israel’s God presides — and reads key Genesis–Deuteronomy passages in light of ancient Near Eastern backgrounds and Hebrew terminology (e.g., elohim, bene elohim). By examining narrative and legal texts, the work shows how references to other 'divine' beings shape the understanding of creation, covenant, law, and conflict with competing spiritual powers, and it contends that recognizing this council clarifies difficult passages and has significant implications for how Israelite monotheism and biblical theology are understood.

7. 7. John's Use Of The Old Testament In The Book Of Revelation

   

   A detailed study of how the author of Revelation engages, reshapes, and reinterprets Hebrew Bible texts and traditions, tracing direct quotations, allusions, and typological reuses to show how Old Testament material functions as the book’s theological and symbolic backbone; the work combines literary, linguistic, and historical analysis to illuminate the intertextual methods at play and the implications for reading the apocalyptic imagery and message within its first-century Jewish and early Christian contexts.
