About the Book
In this work the whole panorama of Bible Chronology has been subjected to close examination from the creation of Adam to the end of Acts. The aim has been to open up that system of dating which commends itself as most probably correct from the biblical perspective. Having done that he has looked for ways to harmonise the resultant scheme with the contradictory dates derived from the Assyrian Eponym Canon, and would like to think that he has succeeded in some measure in explaining how the discrepancies arose.
About the Author
The author was born in Crowborough, Sussex, in 1936. He read Theology at Oxford where he had to contend with the negative impact of the so-called Higher Criticism. Later he did a second degree in Hebrew and Aramaic at the University of Manchester, which he followed up with research in the Book of Revelation under the supervision of Professor F.F. Bruce.
He has been interested in Bible Chronolgy from an early age and now in retirement has had the time and opportunity to put it all together in the present work. He has also written a commentary on Daniel entitled Empires of the End-Time and a fair number of shorter studies, all published by the Open Bible Trust.
