A Pre-millennial, Pre-tribulational Eschatology Textbook
As a whole, I did not find the book difficult or too technical for the average student of the Bible. Though some of the extensive input from other sources used archaic and technical language. I found reading the entire book enriching but it could also serve as a reference book on eschatological issues. Personally I prefer the writings of Thomas Ice on this subject but I do not believe Ice has ever written a book this exhaustive. Many consider Pentecost's work the definitive textbook on the subject. Among pre-mill, pre-trib student of the Bible, this book is a classic. I highly recommend it.

Excellent Study of Eschatology!
Pentecost begins with a thorough examination of the methods of interpretation to be employed in a study of eschatology. He then proceeds to discuss the four eschatological covenants and their implications on the end times from a premillennial pretribulational point of view. He cites several authors representing all views and defends his own preference quite well. He assumes some (but not much) prior knowledge of the amillennial, premillennial and postmillennial views, but no one interested in eschatology should allow that to stop them from reading this book. In fact, when I began this book I had no idea what eschatology was. I was confused for a while, but I soon caught on, and I have now benefitted greatly from reading this very biblically sound, informitive book on God's plan for bringing justice to the world. I would recommend it to any serious student of the Bible.

Covers Every Aspect of Premillennial Prophecy
This was a textbook for a class I took on eschatology. Most of the book was assigned reading, and I chose to read the remaining chapters that were unassigned. I was impressed with how thorough the book treated every single aspect of end times. Many views are given to the various issues, but the traditional dispensational views are almost always defended. The book is somewhat outdated with the new schools of thought on eschatology. I would recommend the book to any student of prophecy.
