Publisher's Synopsis
Bible Threatenings Explained is a book written by J.W. Hanson that aims to clarify some of the passages in the Bible that are often quoted to support the idea of eternal punishment. Hanson argues that these passages have been misinterpreted and that they actually teach that the consequences of sin are of limited duration. The book provides a detailed analysis of several key passages, including those from the Old and New Testaments, and uses historical and linguistic evidence to support its arguments. The author also addresses common objections to his interpretation and offers a compelling case for why his view is more consistent with the overall message of the Bible. Overall, Bible Threatenings Explained is a thought-provoking and insightful book that challenges traditional views on the nature of punishment and redemption.1878.
