PARADISE RESTORED
A Biblical Theology of Dominion
David Chilton
(Select Bibliography)
Books are important in the development of any Christian's growth in the faith. The present volume is not by any means the last word on the subject; if anything, it is only a beginning. I have listed a few books which should be helpful to those who wish to dig deeper. Many of them have been significant in my own understanding of eschatology. The list is certainly not complete (for example, an extensive section on Church history could well have been added), but the basics are here. My listing of any particular book does not constitute a full endorsement of its contents, but I believe these works will generally be rewarding to any serious student of Scripture.
