330 _aThis book, The Day of Atonement and the Heavenly Judgment is the most comprehensive work dealing with the Hebrew ritual, and its theological, typological and eschatological projections of the message of the sanctuary as much in the Old as in the New Testament. Actually, all the important issues dealing with the significance of the Hebrew ritual in law, history and prophecy, are studied carefully. Thus, the writer did not spare any effort to understand the principal issues under discussion in the book of Leviticus, Daniel, Hebrews and Revelation, as in many other legal and prophetic messages in both testaments. For this volume, the author consulted for many years the principal libraries in Europe and the United States. The opportunity of studying and working on several continents, allowed him to understand different cultures and the way people deal with theological issues in diverse countries. This is why the reader will find in this work a careful consideration of many different approaches presented in the study of the Israelite sanctuary and of its fulfillment in the heavenly priestly ministry of Jesus, and specific answers to the different problems there involved.
