ReviewsThere is a world referred to in the Scripture that is quite unseen, but also quite present and active. Michael Heiser's The Unseen Realm seeks to unmask this world. Heiser shows how important it is to understand this world and appreciate how its contribution helps to make sense of Scripture. The book is clear and well done, treating many ideas and themes that often go unseen themselves. With this book, such themes will no longer be neglected, so read it and discover a new realm for reflection about what Scripture teaches. --Darrell L. Bock, Executive Director for Cultural Engagement, Senior Research Professor of New Testament Studies, Howard G. Hendricks Center for Christian Leadership and Cultural Engagement "How was it possible that I had never seen that before?" Dr. Heiser's survey of the complex reality of the supernatural world as the Scriptures portray it covers a subject that is strangely sidestepped. No one is going to agree with everything in this book, but the subject deserves careful study, and so does this book. --John Goldingay, David Allan Hubbard Professor of Old Testament, Fuller Theological Seminary This is a "big" book in the best sense of the term. It is big in its scope and in its depth of analysis. Michael Heiser is a scholar who knows Scripture intimately in its ancient cultural context. All--scholars, clergy, and laypeople--who read this profound and accessible book will grow in their understanding of both the Old and New Testaments, particularly as their eyes are opened to the Bible's "unseen world." --Tremper Longman III, Robert H. Gundry Professor of Biblical Studies, Westmont College

    Knowing the Bible's Supernatural Aspect - It's our Christian Right

    Michael S. Heiser knows the Bible, so he deeply highlights the supernatural realm in the bible and how it affects our lives. I think it's important, that all Christians know the Bible.. So, I've soooo enjoyed his view of the supernatural... he brings the bible to life... I believe the Holy Spirit uses him to empower the Word of God.. My experience with the bible has been great, but Dr. Heiser gives good knowledge about the realm of the Supernatural.. and that's exactly what I want to hear... Mr. Heiser really does a good job in pulling back the curtain, so the reader is able to understand more of the book of Genesis to the book of Revelation... I think more Christians should read this so they can understand up close the supernatural realm. He really does explains this area in the Bible ... Shalom Debbie

    The book missed the mark.

    I read the first 5 chapters of this book and I've never read so much heresy in my entire life. The author talks about a "Council of God"(spoiler alert- there is no "Council of God"). Pure nonsense. I equate the book as "science fiction". Save your money and move on. I couldn't put this book down but I did throw it down. Instead concentrate your readings to the Bible itself. You'll be much further ahead.

  • The Unseen Realm

    Michael Heiser does a phenomenal job in writing this. It's Very obvious he has spent Untold amount of hours researching this. He is a very good writer and it captures your attention quickly. Very informative and I love the way he interprets the Word of God thru the ancient writers which makes total sense. I don't think you will be disappointed at all in this book and you will discover truths that will help you in your journey with the Lord

  • A new look at Oldest Book

    A deep dive into the exegesis of the Bible. You won't view the Good Book the same after this read. Heiser is a master at ferreting out hidden issues.

  • Fantastic and informative

    This book is an eye-opener! If you are a Christian or want to educate yourself about this religion, it is a great read! The other books published by Heiser are very good, too, but this is a great place to start!
