2ND EDITION, INDEXED
“What if the history of the world could be told as one grand, seamless timeline—set wholly by Scripture?”
In Timebook, Peter Heffner lays out a groundbreaking chronological synthesis that traces world history from Creation to the Resurrection—and beyond to the undatable Second Coming of Christ. Rooted in the authority of the Bible and supported by early Church writings, this work is a bold revival of the Biblical timeline, free from arbitrary gaps or modern revisions. The lens of history—the covenant of salvation.
With clarity and conviction, Timebook explains:
- Daniel’s Seventy Weeks, not as isolated prophecy, but as the structural spine of all sacred history.
- A complete Biblical chronology from Adam to Christ, including accurate dates for the Flood, the Exodus, and the building of the Temple.
- The full scope of Christian eschatology, mapping the New Testament Church across seven prophetic ages.
- The Ten Weeks of Enoch, Ezra’s 400-year prophecy, and how they explain Scripture’s divine revelation.
- A unique typological lens for understanding Antichrist, Babylon, and the Last Week of human history.
- A faithful call to covenant, conversion, and communion in an age longing for meaning and renewal.
Whether you be a student of theology, a Bible teacher, or a seeker tracing the thread of prophecy through time, Timebook offers a robust and reverent guide. Anchored in the belief that history bends toward the fulfillment of God’s covenant, it challenges the reader not merely to look backward—but to live forward in hope.
Includes:
- Full-page historical charts and timelines.
- Full Scriptural citations and detailed application to history.
- Commentary drawn from early Church Fathers and Reformers.
- A glossary and calendar appendix for reference and study.
This book serves as a valuable companion to William L. Langer’s influential work, An Encyclopedia of World History: Ancient, Medieval, and Modern, Chronologically Arranged (1948), and the Anchor Yale Bible Dictionary. Readers will find added insight by reading Timebook. The paperback is gray toned.
