The Scriptural Temple: Understanding the Temple through the Scriptures

An orthopedic surgeon shares his personal transformation from 'temple inactive' to devoted temple worshipper, presenting a sweeping study of how the scriptures reveal true temple worship.

A dense, searching book for readers ready to make the temple the center of their lives.
