Left Behind, the Book of Revelation and the Rapture In a Bible History Daily guest post, Michelle Fletcher examines how the concept of a “pre-tribulation” Rapture as portrayed in the new movie Left Behind became popular. Learn what Biblical texts, including the book of Revelation, say about the end-times.

The many hermeneutics of the Bible affect the way we read and understand the scriptures.
