After reading this book, you may never read your Bible the same way again.
In both books by Dr. Michael S. Heiser, he shines a light on the supernatural world―not a new light, but rather the same light the original, ancient readers―and writers―of Scripture would have seen it in. After reading either of these books, you won’t be able to read the Bible in the same way again.
Supernatural: What the Bible Teaches about the Unseen World―and Why it Matters (available here) presents this approach to reading and understanding scripture for the person in the pew. The Unseen Realm covers the same material but at a deeper, complex, and highly documented way, for pastors, the seminarian, or serious students of the Bible.
