Ewing - 0.2-Note from Daniel Wallace

Note from Daniel Wallace

Editor’s note: The following seven documents (title-table of contents, five chapters, and bibliography) constitute Ragan Ewing’s Master’s Thesis done at Dallas Theological Seminary in 2002. He argues in “The Identification of Babylon the Harlot in the Book of Revelation” that the harlot is Jerusalem. A part of this argument is also that Revelation was written pre-70. Although Ragan did not convince either of his readers (Dr. Harold W. Hoehner and Daniel B. Wallace), he did make out, I believe, as good a case as can be made for the view espoused. And it is well written. Although I am not yet convinced of his interpretation, I may well be wrong. And he has certainly gotten me to rethink this issue.

I did not alter the contents at all. The only editing was minor fixes on form. The pagination will most likely not come out the same for the internet, but at least the table of contents gives the general contents of the various chapters.
