Harlot & Bride

Revelation Explained: An Interpretation by James B. Jordan, Volume Three

By: James B. Jordan

Narrated by: Dean Arnold

Who can make sense of the book of Revelation?

Actually, James Jordan can explain it—not in all of its mystical intrigue and many-layered prophecies—but in at least one solid interpretation. Many people lament that they have never read a single take that makes sense. This real-life explanation can get one started in unraveling the enigmatic book.

Volume Three “Harlot & Bride" covers the last third of Revelation and explores the dark theme of the whore of Babylon followed by the bright and light-filled description of the bride, the New Jerusalem, with its gems, pearls, and clear gold streets and walls.

James B. Jordan has never held a full-time academic position. He moonlighted as an editor. These lectures were given over a four-year period to a Sunday school class where he served as an assistant pastor at a small church in Niceville, Florida. And yet, Peter Leithart (PhD Cambridge) and R.R. Reno (PhD Yale, First Things Editor) call Jordan “one of the leading Christian intellectuals of his generation.”

Dean W. Arnold is an author and screenwriter. His script on J. R. R. Tolkien was endorsed by the Oxford C. S. Lewis Society. Pulitzer winner Jon Meacham called his book Old Money, New South “well worth reading.” He grew up talking theology around the dinner table with his father, a pastor with a doctorate from Dallas Theological Seminary. Today, Dean is tonsured “The Reader Gabriel” for the Orthodox Church in America.

James Jordan is Brilliant!

Dean did a great job editing Jordan's lectures. I finally feel like I partially understand the Book of Revelation. Thank you, Dean, for doing this!
