Rethinking Revelation (Part One)

May 16, 2016 · by Daniel Pentimone · in Biblical Studies

Eight Challenges for Traditional Perspectives (Part One) When I came to the book of Revelation, I didn’t even try to study it. In place of the careful, word-by-word or phrase-by-phrase exegesis that I enjoy, I simply read through the book…

Striking Syria

May 9, 2016 · by Daniel Pentimone · in Biblical Studies

God’s Humility

The Question

February 25, 2016 · by Daniel Pentimone · in Biblical Studies
