Review by readywriter59 -- Roadmap to the End of Days
[Following is a volunteer review of "Roadmap to the End of Days" by Daniel Friedmann.]
4 out of 4 stars
Share This Review
Roadmap to the End of Days by Daniel Friedmann illustrates a scientific and biblical view of universal events; past, apocalyptic, eschatologically speaking as well as the end of days. With precision, Friedmann examines the days of creation and how they explain and reference events down through the ages. He offers a systematic approach to understanding how things were, how they are now and an estimation of certain events which are to come as it relates to human history. Friedmann uses 10 chapters to discuss the cosmic purpose, the Messianic era, the universal timeline, the rhythm of history (looking back), recent history, looking forward, the world to come, a conclusion and a chapter with a disclaimer. He concludes with final thoughts.
As an introduction, Friedmann begins by defining specific terms, then contrasting and comparing events and setting a foundation for the in-depth study of the end of days and what it means. Friedmann offers his readers an opportunity to investigate and follow the patterns that have preceded throughout time and line them up with the patterns evidenced and proven through science. He states that certain actions will take place. He also states that some events are based on our personal interactions. He points to inevitabilities though the pathway to these inevitabilities is not without human interaction while remaining true to certain inevitabilities occurring with or without human intervention.
The material in this book was easy to follow and the transitions were smooth and appropriate. I did not note any grammatical errors. The book was extremely well thought out and the critical analysis draws the reader to pursue further study. I like the fact that Friedmann added a chapter as a disclaimer. I believe it was necessary less some try to make a doctrine of the information presented. I believe Friedmann’s intention is to have readers draw their own conclusions. The preparation that was given to this material is evident.
Although the book is theoretical, I believe the information follows biblical principles and can be followed historically. The tables included in this book provide a clear picture of times and seasons and present support and guidance in following the material. These tables can be used as stand-alones as well and can be used as instructional tools. I appreciate this snapshot view of biblical history and the effort given to pulling this information together in this format.
I enjoyed this book. I give this book 4 out of 4 stars. I feel that Friedmann executed the material well. I believe Friedmann has a good grasp of the subject material. I believe that Friedmann’s information is compelling and thought-provoking. The intent of the book is to cause readers to look with an open mind at the sequence of events and see the similarities in what we face now and how the future possibly can be viewed. I encourage everyone to add this book to their personal library for reference, and in particular, anyone interested in history and science could benefit greatly from the material written.
