Toward the end of this month I’ll be speaking for three days in Lehighton, PA. I rarely speak anywhere except at academic conferences. This will not be a large on-site event by design, so space is indeed limited (I have spoken for this group before). Here is a link with all the details. Registration is available at that link. Here are the basics:
| Seminar Topics to Include: |
|
Unseen world and its structure in Old & New Testaments |
|
Cosmic geography in Old & New Testaments |
|
Role of the unseen world in eschatology |
|
How all this relates to eschatology |

For those of us too far away to attend, will the content be available in any format?
It is being recorded, but I don’t know what it will end up as; I think it is being streamed as well.
And here I am, stuck in the UK. Praying it goes well and introduces these concepts to a wider audience.
thanks!
MSH,
These topics will revolve around the Divine Council and the Sons of God?
Thanks
many of them will; they are part of the mix for sure.
Dear Dr. Heiser,
I recently watched a video where you talked of the “end times.” Could you give me a brief summary of your view of how Jesus will return? Will there be a seven year tribulation? A “rapture?” etc.
God’s blessings…
No, I can’t. I don’t like any of the systems. They all have strengths and serious weaknesses. Along with that, the text is ambiguous in many respects. I have found that for me to say “I think this or that,” is to invite people to misunderstand what I said, or read one of the systems into what I said (I may use the same terms but for different reasons and slightly different meanings). In addition to the videos on vimeo or my church’s website, I’d suggest reading through the archives on this blog about eschatology.

Are you still writing a book specifically about the divine council like it says on the Divine Council website?
yes; the *first draft* is basically done but not uploaded yet.
