George Eldon Ladd Livres
George Eldon Ladd fut un théologien important du Nouveau Testament et un défenseur du Prémillénarisme Historique. Son œuvre, particulièrement dans la théologie du Royaume de Dieu et de l'eschatologie inaugurée, est devenue une pierre angulaire de la théologie moderne du Royaume. Les écrits de Ladd ont abordé de manière critique les visions dispensationalistes, offrant des aperçus profonds sur la prophétie biblique et son accomplissement. Son approche se caractérise par un accent mis sur l'interprétation cohérente des Écritures et leur pertinence pour le monde contemporain.

New in the Eerdmans Classic Biblical Commentaries collection In this now-classic exposition of Revelation, first published in 1972, George Eldon Ladd offers a clear, engaging, and insightful reading of the Apocalypse that is ideal for the pulpit, classroom, or personal study. In a brief introduction Ladd discusses the subject of authorship, the date and historical setting of Revelation, and the various methods of interpretation (preterist, historical, idealist, and futurist) that have been applied to the book throughout history. He then offers an analytical outline of Revelation's structure and his verse-by-verse commentary, which reflects a historic premillennial perspective. The entire work is marked by Ladd's sensitivity to the needs of both scholars and general readers and by his concern for proclaiming the message of Revelation for our time.
After surveying the debate over eschatology, Ladd discusses the promise of the kingdom, the fulfillment of the promise, and the consummation of the promise. Throughout the book he develops his thesis that the kingdom of God involves two great movements--fulfillment within history and consummation at the end of history.
Ladd's magisterial work on New Testament theology has well served scores of seminary students since 1974. Now this comprehensive, standard evangelical text has been carefully revised by Hagner to include an update of Ladd's survey of the history of the field of New Testament theology, an augmented bibliography, and an entirely new subject index.
