OPENING UP EZEKIEL’S VISIONS
By Peter Jeffery
Day One. 128 pages. £5.00
ISBN 1 903087 66 X

This book is clearly and readably written and presented in an attractive format including some good illustrations. It is realistically priced. Assuming a degree of biblical literacy, it offers helpful background analyses of the prophet and his book.

Jeffrey makes no attempt to provide a commentary, opting rather for an ‘opening up’ of the prophet. In reality it is less this than reflections on a number of themes, especially those that might be deemed ‘gospel’ themes, for example, sin, divine wrath, judgement, the need for repentance, etc. As such, it offers a robust presentation of the conservative evangelical understanding of the gospel. Indeed, it reads like written-up sermons.
