This new book is, literally, the only one like it on the market! There is not another full length commentary on 2 Peter 3 available anywhere, by anyone!

The Elements Shall Melt With Fervent Heat, spends considerable time in setting the proper context for understanding 2 Peter 3. The special studies of the Transfiguration scene and how Peter used it as a refutation of the scoffers is unparalleled. The section on "Romancing the Stone," a very special study of the relationship between the "Stone" prophecies of the Old Testament and how Jesus, Paul and Peter all used those identical prophecies in the same way, is compelling. The examination and comparision of 2 Peter 2 with chapter 3 sets the stage for the correct exegesis of the critical chapter 3.

In addition, Preston's in-depth examination of the prophecies that serve as the background source for Peter's prediction of the Day of the Lord is unprecedented. After reading countless commentaries, obtaining unnumbered articles from the journals, and exploring every avenue of research available, not one of them offered insights on the relationship between the nature of the Day of the Lord foretold in Isaiah 64-65, the source for Peter's prediction. While not one of these sources has offered insight into this relationship, when you read Elements you will see the power of this connection immediately, and marvel at its profound application! This is wonderful material!

Elements also explores, indepth, the relationship between the famous and significant prophecy of Daniel 9:24f and 2 Peter 3.

One of the most important studies in Elements is the study showing how the Jews of Jesus' and Peter's world thought and referred to the Old Covenant temple as "heaven and earth." The historical and Biblical evidence brought forth by Preston in this section will blow you away, and open your eyes to understand not only Peter, but Matthew 24:35 in a totally new way.

Also in this book is an expanded Responding to the Critics section, and Preston responds, head on, to the charge that preterism is a violation of the creeds. This is powerful stuff!

In a special addendum, Elements addresses the issue of the New Creation, Preterism, and Universalism. This is a very important study.

The Elements Shall Melt With Fervent Heat is destined to become the definitive work on 2 Peter 3. In this work, Preston not only presents the exegetical evidence to fully prove his case, but, he also interacts with many of the leading critics of preterism, including Gentry, Beale, Ice, and others, who appeal to 2 Peter 3 for a future eschatology. Preston very effectively refutes the charge of heresy, and shows that the preterist view of prophecy is the only tenable, scriptural view.
