Isaiah 13 and 14: Babylon Near and Far, Part 1 :: By Mark A. Becker

Introduction According to my calculations, research, and Scripture studies, there are four Babel/Babylons mentioned in the Scriptures. The first is Nimrod’s Babel which is of an unknown location. We do know that Babel was located somewhere in the Land of Shinar (Genesis 10:10). Best-guess estimates put this location somewhere in northern Iraq or possibly around […]

Daniel 11:36-45: Antichrist’s Last Adversary :: By Mark A. Becker

Daniel 11 is one intense and action-packed chapter.

Matthew’s Olivet Discourse :: By Mark A. Becker

Introduction As we go through the Olivet Discourse, as found in the synoptic gospels, we want to – as best we can – dissect the information given, offer Biblical and practical observations concerning each presentation, present some corroborating Scripture, and seek to better understand how our Lord structured His discourse and what each gospel writer […]
