"I read this book as I was working on my Associates degree. The book was helpful to me because it introduced me to the fact that the Temple of Israel was built as a model of creation. But Greg Beale's book on the Temple would be a much better place to go to get a Christian view of the typology of the temple."
"Every new initiate to any religion eventually finds themselves at a point when they're no longer satisfied by "Because God said so!" as the only answer to every question they ask. This book was recommended to me at a point when I was struggling to advance past the neophyte stage in my faith. It was incredibly frustrating that all the books I could find regarding the subject were written for absolute beginners, and I latched onto this book the way a drowning person would latch onto a lifesaver. Despite the fact that this book was not written specifically for my religion, it still managed to clarify everything from why I was religious, to how to be religious. Every lesson and point made was relevant to my own questions. I learned far more about myself and my faith from this one book than any ten of the beginner's books I'd read so far."
