This is how the upbeat
new apocalyptic book by science writer Annalee Newitz, the lead editor of the engaging tech / science / entertainment Web site io9, summarizes the strategies that could allow the human species to persist if faced with the kind of epic disruptions to Earth's environment that have periodically erased the majority of living things.
These theological visions come from many sources, including:
apocalyptic books of the Bible from Daniel to Revelation; a nineteenth - century viewpoint on the end of times known as dispensational premillennialism; and images of the so - called «rapture» popularized in novels such as Hal Lindsey's The Late Great Planet Earth (1970) and the more recent Left Behind series.
I found this book to be one of the best introductory books I have read on Apocalyptic Literature in the Bible, and highly recommend it for anybody who wants to study, teach, or preach through any of
the Apocalyptic books or sections of the Bible.

Jesus's Messianic consciousness was probably influenced by
the apocalyptic Book of Enoch, in which the form, but not the person, of the servant has pre-existence, and by the events of the end which may have led Jesus to step out of the concealment of the «quiver» and imagine himself, after the vision of Daniel, as in his own person the one who will be removed and afterwards sent again to the office of fulfillment.
Normally, with the single exception of our own NT Apocalypse,
all apocalyptic books are pseudonymous.
