Brief description:
G. K. Beale (PhD, Cambridge) is professor of New Testament at Reformed Theological Seminary (Dallas, Texas). He has published many books, including The Temple and the Church's Mission, We Become What We Worship, Handbook on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament, and commentaries on 1-2 Thessalonians and Revelation.
Review Quotes:
Beale has written a comprehensive (and to my mind, convincing) biblical theology, centering on the role of the temple both in Scripture and in the Ancient Near East.
