Supernatural: What the Bible Teaches about the Unseen World—And Why It Matters

Uncover the Supernatural in the Bible

Who were the sons of God? Who were the Nephilim? Where do angels fit into the supernatural hierarchy? Why did God find it necessary to have the Israelites destroy the populations of entire cities man, woman, and child? What relation does Jesus bear to the rest of the supernatural world?

In Supernatural, Michael Heiser, tackles these questions and many more, based on his fifteen years of research into what the Bible really says about the unseen world. Heiser shines a light on the supernatural world—not a new light, but rather the same light the original, ancient readers and writers of Scripture would have seen it in.

You may never read the Bible the same way again.

Praise for Michael Heiser

Michael Heiser shows how important it is to understand this world and appreciate how its contribution helps to make sense of Scripture.
