In this multipart series I explore the phenomenon of interpreting "Bible Prophecy" and why it has utterly disappointed its devotees and adherents through the ages--with a 100% rate of failure! We look at both the texts of the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament, but also the long history of interpretation and predictions of the end of the age, beginning with the Dead Sea Scroll group around 100 BCE, all the way down to our own time--which has proven to be a heyday of Prophetic Schemes and Predictions.

The Book of Revelation is front and center on multiple thousands of videos and internet sites in interpreting the War in Israel as some kind of scenario leading up to the return of Christ. It is possible, or even likely, that embedded within our present Book of Revelation in the New Testament, there is a pre-Christian version, one that never mentions Jesus at all? Given the totally Christo-Centric focus of the book--how is that even conceivable? In this video I present that such is indeed the case--and we can recover the "original" with some degree of confidence. As it turns out it appears to reflect the perspectives of various Jewish apocalyptic Jewish movements in late 2nd Temple Judaism, in reacting to Nero and his moves against Jews and followers of Jesus.
